Some grocery stores will hire 15 year olds as baggers, so you could find out about that. If you have an interest that could make you money, such as sewing, making rag rugs, making jewelry, you could do that.  It's summer so there's always lawn work to do. If you have elderly people in your neighborhood, ask if they need their garage or attic or basement cleaned out.

The old reliable lemonade stand is always good. If you're good in math, reading, etc., you could be a tutor. Ask mom or dad if they have any friends whose children need help.  If you put your mind to it, you could probably think of more ideas. Good luck.

Learn to code. You can start somewhere like https://www.codecademy.com/

It's an in demand skill, and with it you could probably earn some extra cash interning for a tech company or digital agency.

And in the meantime, you can work on building a successful website, app, or personal project.

Due to your young age, if it's successful, you are more likely to get media coverage etc...

And if you kick up enough headlines, your company might get acquired by Yahoo or Google or someone like that.

For inspiration, you might want to look up Nick D'Aloiso https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_D%27Aloisio

He sold his news app Summly, to Yahoo for $30 million.
