    Personally I'd ask her to study and Get good grades and behave normal and respectful with the family, help with house chores and you get the gear.

      Find a store or business that would support her quest in raising funds with a car wash at a busy location. If you can find one with water access let her sell the idea to them. I think that you would be surprised how many would support that.

        If you do Facebook and there is a neighborhood group post on there why she’s looking for jobs and some things she can do. Last year my wife saw a similar thing and we paid a kid to come rake and bag all the leaves then again to weed the flower beds. I was happy to do it and he made some cash.

        My buddy built his daughter a lemonade stand and she will sell drinks and art that she does. She’s 11, started as a way to fundraiser for her club gymnastics team and now she does it almost weekly for different things

            However, I have $50 burning a hole in my pocket, and I’ll bet some others do too. Let her work it off at home. PM me your paypal info and let’s see if we can get her some catching gear.
            I'm in for $20 myself

              When I was her age, I wanted a deer rifle. My dad made the deal that if I saved up enough for the rifle, he covered the scope. I saved up $576 (this was 30 years ago) and bought a Ruger .270 for $399.99 at Carter's Country along with a box of ammo, a case and a sling. My Dad contributed a Redfield 3-9x40. Still my favorite rifle today. Below are some of the things I did to make the $$$.

              Mow lawns
              Car/truck washes
              Dog walking/washing
              Plant watering
              Weed and mulching flower beds

                  2 of my granddaughters were in her predicament. They posted signs and told all their Friend's and posted on talk of their neighborhood website. They sold Snow cones. Ended up having to buy snow one ice. They made almost $200.00 in a lot of people just stopped and gave them $5.00. Lot of friends and neighbors stopped by.

                    I fed a lot of hay as a 10yo ½ orphan. Didn't pay worth a dam.

                      Go to the neighbors and ask if they want their windows cleaned. Use the windex spray in wash. It’s easy to do for a 10 yr old but time consuming so many are willing to pay for it. Could even do $3 a window or something

                        I’ll donate to get some good gear. Just let me know where to send it. Got a daughter that played for years and got granddaughters that play basketball, volleyball, and golf now.

                              Watering pots and gardens on the weekends is always a plus as well, even if the people have emitters on their sprinkler system, they do not always work. You come home from a vacation and lose 4 pots you paid $20-200 dollars to get planted out of your 40 pots because the lawn guy's new employee hit a line while edging.
