What is fundraiser: Definition and 200 Discussions

I'm doing a batter bowl fundraiser again for a group of 5th graders but am stuck not being sure what to price the bowls at. In the past we priced the bowls at $15, donating my commission the organization made some great money and it was a huge hit. Since then unfortunately the bowls, shipping...

:cry:I never did a fundraiser before. I did understande how much they give and how it works. My question is, do they have only certain products they can purchase or is the whole catalog available?? Thank you soooo much Daniela

I have a question for any of you that have put together a quarter auction fundraiser. I am putting one together for our local library and they found out that the vendors can not get the quarters back for their items that they are auctioning off because it goes against their small games of...

Participating in a Fundraiser at our local Y this weekend for the Susan G Komen 3 day Walk for the Cure. This is a flyer I made to go along with the basket. The basket has hot pink and black/white polka dotted tissue paper in the bottom, the items in the basket. It's wrapped in clear...

Ok, I know PC offers fundraiser options, but in my opinion, not enough profit for what we'd need. Our Cub Scout pack budget to do the basic activities, awards, etc, for the year is pretty high (we have almost 100 boys). We try to cover as much cost as we can...families pay about 50% of the big...

I was wondering if anyone knew the answer to this. Myself and a fellow PC Consultant friend of mine wanted to do a regular Fundraiser for a friend of ours that is going through breast cancer. My Consultant friend opened up a regular Fundraiser. She was going to donate her commission and to our...

A friend of mine is a MK consultant. She called me the other day to ask if I'd like to pay $20 to have my business card printed in their booklet they will be giving out to all the attendees of their fundraiser Tea thing they are having for their foundation (can't remember what it's called, but...

I have been contacted by a parent that wants to do a fundraiser to help her daughter go to cheer camp in Florida. I have never done a fundraiser before, but in reading other posts, MANY people need to be involved to make it worthwhile for the organization. It seems that it would be more...

I tried something that I heard in a class and it worked really well. I told the host to pass out catalogs and order forms to the members. Instead of the members just placing an order, I had each one act like a host and go out and collect orders.

I'm hoping you guys can offer some suggestions/advice on an upcoming fundraiser I'm helping plan. The fundraiser is for my local Women in Aviation group. We're trying to fund a $500 scholarship (and hopefully earn even more money to begin funding next year's scholarship). The idea is to have...

Is there a limit to how many fundraisers a group can have? I have someone that wants to do a fundraiser and I would like to allow her to do an August fundraiser, submit that and then start again in September with the new catalog as well. Can this be done?

I was reading a post on one of our local DJ's about needing to raise money for her learning center that she was opening. Of course, this DJ had just been fired, so this person didn't know how the DJ could help out anymore.... I private messaged her and offered my services of TPC fundraising...

I am doing a fundraiser next week and was asked to show something that requires NO cooking--no stove top, no microwave, nothing. I already demonstrated a trifle for the same group at the last fundraiser. Any ideas? TIA

hi everyone. I have a consultant who is having a fundraiser show in August, and she has a few questions. I've only ever done one fundraiser (and didn't have to do much at all!!!) so I'm not quite sure how to answer these questons. I've looked at the PC website, but there isn't much additional...

I placed an order for the HWC pins for a Fundraiser I am doing in August. I thought I place it for 3 bags of 10... I only placed it for 1 bag. Does anyone know where I might get some extra pins? Thank you.

I had a host who went back and forth between doing a cooking show and a fundraiser. I typed the show originally as a cooking show and now we are sending it in as a fundraiser. PP won't let me switch it out on the show summery. Do I have to delete the whole show and re-type it????? Thanks!

Just got an email from my upper line director: Congratulations to Melissa Karcher on your fundraiser of $34,704.25. It's hard to find the right words to tell you how AMAZING and INCREDIBLE your sales are Melissa!!! I'm sure the elementary school feels the same way!!! That is the most...

Our Chamber Choir is heading to Europe for 10 days to perform in some of the cathedrals of Europe. What an exciting opportunity! But, the trip is costing more than originally planned. I have offered a friend's daughter a fundraising opportunity with PC and now I am thinking that I should...

I have someone doing a fundraiser this month that is not a HWC fundraiser. I've entered it on my website and selected standard fundraiser. When selecting the type of evite, I selected standard versus the HWC and the evite still reference HWC and that if the show is over $600, the 25% will go...

I'm going to do an online HWC fundraiser through my guest contacts and facebook. Anybody have any good suggestions on how to word the email? Or something you have used before?

I have been asked to do a fundraiser next month for this non profit organization. They asked if I could do a show that don't require the use of a stove, as they have none. I was thinking about the 30 minute microwave but they don't have one either and I'm not sure I wanna lug a microwave there...

I am trying to come up with a fundraiser plan for the HWC products. I was thinking that I would try to find nurses that I know from some of the area hospitals and ask if they would be willing to get the information out to their fellow employees. I want to set up the fundraiser show on my...

I entered a show as a fundraiser in p3, now we are going to change it over to a cooking show and make baskets with free stuff and I'm donating money for the half off item. It won't let me change it??? Help! I have 15 guests with direct shipping and I don't want to re-add it!!! Please say I...

I recently did a fundraiser for a local colleges' day care center. To help out with sorting I had the complete show sent to me. The check was made out to the day care center and me! I presume I just endorse it?

When putting a basket together for a action at a Fundraiser what do you put in it? I would like to also include a gift certificate with the products.. any ideas are appreciated. Thank you.

I'm new to Pampered Chef. I've always been a "junkie", so I figured why not sell it! The business has been doing very well. I think in May I want to try to hold a fundraiser for a missions trip I'm planning to take to India in January of 2012. Some of the money is due at the end of May and...

Do fundraiser hosts get 10% off for a year?
