Well, our chapter (San Diego) is probably not the best example of creative
money-raising.  We charge a nominal fee ($10 per year) for our newsletter,
which basically covers expenses with a little bit left over.

The Chapters handbook recommends holding Professional Development Seminars,
both as a money-raising vehicle, as a benefit to the community, and as a way
of increasing the Chapter's visibility to the community.  For various reasons, our
chapter has never held a PDS.  We simply don't have enough volunteers or adequate
leadership (being the Chair, I can say that without offending anyone but myself).

Your affiliation with ASU might give you access to resources that would ease the
organization of a PDS, though.
