Hello!

Try selling something that your supporters will actually want (especially for a !). Not products that they can get on their own right down the street and usually for a cheaper price. A very good product that gives value to supporters is fundraising cards. The thing about fundraising discount cards is that the supporters save well more than what they actually paid for the card. Do your own research though and make sure you pick a good, quality card that has a ton of discounts for your supporters! Good luck!

It wold take something a lot bigger like charitable sponsors, I don't know it it's any sort of non profit that would qualify, coming up with a publicity stunt or event that could would be covered by the local news had 100x bigger donor revenue potential than a bake sale alone.
Writing a press release is a common way to get the media's attention, there are paid and free web sites that distribute press release, it might take a paid one to reach main stream media.

Have you considered selling honey? There's a Christian company (http://www.humbleangel.com) called ‘Humble Angel Honey’ that sells honey in an angel container. The container looks REALLY cute!

Try using crowdfunding. It is essentially websites that people go in and review various business or teams that need funding/support. You don't have to offer a product, just a compelling reason to make people want to support your organization. It is easy and no cost, so you can use it on top of other fundraisers.

Another option, run a pool. Whether hockey, football, or baseball - you can get people to sell 10 each for $20, give away a prize to the winner. You can use sites to manage the pool so it is not that much time to manage.
