In 2017 i am going to malawi, south africa to build classrooms for the children. In order to get there i need to raise £2300. To raise some of this i was looking to make and sell things. I am looking for ideas on what i could make easily to then sell on to help raise funds. Any suggestion is much appreciated, thank you.

To be totally honest, you could probably fly to Malawi or somewhere else in Africa for 500-700 Pounds and help out with an existing local volunteer organisation at no further cost other than basic accommodation and food. The charities that ask for huge amounts of money are rarely good value. The volunteers basically end up having to ask friends and family to pay for their exotic holiday. If you have already signed up for this particular project, I suggest making little African-looking dolls and selling them door to door (assuming you can make 250 of them).
You could also put your idea on launchgood dot com, since Malawi is partly Muslim.
Good luck and I hope you get there!
Creating and business handmade projects from your house can be a fun and relaxing way for wait at house and earn extra cash. In addition, it also could be a profitable income source for any crafter who knows how to sell own products. Certainly the first thing supplier must do is to decide what products want to sell.. The main thing is to incorporate your talents and hobbies into something you love creating. You might want to experiment with a several of crafts before you choose the right one for you.
