Where is everyone getting the informational brochures about breast cancer to give away at your shows/ fundraisers? Do I get them online and print them or order them from someone? Do I pay or are they free? Thanks for the info. I am trying to get prepared for a May fundraiser and want to give out this information!

call 1-800-595-0595. This is the cancer society. tell them you are calling for your pampered chef brochures. You can get up to 100 for free. This info is on the consultants corner under the whip cancer info. hope this helps.
 
Thanks for the reminder!I forgot about that number. I just called and it only took 2 minutes. She said the brochures will take about 2 weeks to arrive, so if you're planning an early May show, you may want to call now.

Also, last year I was able to get a lot of brochures, buttons and bookmarks from our local hospital. Just call ahead and I'm sure they'd be happy to help raise awareness!

You will not need to pay for these materials, as they are provided by the American Cancer Society for educational purposes. I have used these materials at my own shows and fundraisers and they have been very well received by my guests.I hope this helps and best of luck with your May fundraiser!Sincerely,Pampered Chef Consultant # [Your Consultant Number]
