The school is out of money, the protagonist is out of a job, or a good cause requires money. What do you do? A fundraiser of course! In a typical set-up, a protagonists' school class has to sell something for fund raising, and there is a reward for the person who sells the most. After initial failure, the protagonist will employ a Zany Scheme to sell obscene amounts of it and end up with a mountain of money. The Lonely Rich Kid will just spend their own. More often than not, the reward ends up being lame. |

Fudêncio e Seus Amigos: In the fourth episode, "Prenda Prendida Prendada", Teacher Cudi tells the class to raise funds to help people with unibrows, which she treats like it's a serious condition. Conrado gets punched multiple times by men with unibrows who get offended at being treated like that's a problem, while Fudêncio spends all the money from the rest of the gang with sexy women. In the end, the charity was worthless, but Teacher Cudi now orders the class to raise money for Conrado instead, who was so badly injured by the men with unibrows, he got hospitalized. | |

Spoofed in The Boondocks episode "The Fundraiser", in which Riley exploits his school's chocolate fundraiser by turning it into a for-profit business in the style of illegal drug trafficking. This scheme actually proves to be very successful, and things go very well for Riley and his business partners — well, at least until they start getting harassed and threatened by British thugs who were hired by the corporation which produced the chocolate bars in the first place. | |

Naturally she succeeds and he fails. As Pete goes from door to door he's required to say the Sunflower Oath: |
