Multi-Location Fundraiser: How to Handle Shipping Costs and Multiple Events

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

Fundraisers can be conducted separately for the same organization within the same month, allowing for increased outreach and potential revenue. Each fundraiser yielding $150 results in a 10% donation, while a $150 order qualifies for free shipping if combined with others. To optimize shipping costs, consider implementing a group shipping option and encouraging participants to collaborate on orders. Incentives for reaching the $150 minimum, such as discounts or free products, can further enhance participation and fundraising success.

PREREQUISITES

  • Familiarity with collaboration tools for coordinating orders

And I have another fundraiser question! My fundraiser organization has contacts all over the country that want to help raise $$ for them. I'd hate to have to charge everyone from their area direct shipping. If they can get $150 in orders can I do separate fundraisers for the same organization in the same month? Or is there a better way to handle this?

Thank you all for your help. I <3 you all. :)
 
Yes you can do separate fundraisers in a month. Keep in mind a fundraiser for $150, only gets 10% donation, not the 15%. Also, you would need to have one person in each area that is willing to accept orders and distribute them.
 
Yes, you can definitely do separate fundraisers for the same organization in the same month. This can actually be a great way to reach more people and potentially raise more money. You can also offer a group shipping option where all the orders from a certain area can be shipped together to save on shipping costs. Another option is to encourage people to combine their orders with others in their area to reach the $150 minimum. This way, they can still benefit from free shipping. You can also offer incentives or rewards for those who reach the $150 minimum, such as a free product or discount on their next order. Ultimately, communication and collaboration with your fundraiser participants is key to finding the best solution for everyone involved.
