Help!! This may already be out there, but I am about to close my first fundraiser, and I want to make sure I didn't leave anything out.

I put the organization name in the "Organization" line of PP. Then I put the name and address of the Chairperson to whom the check will be going. All orders are in.

Anything else??? HO knows to make the check out to the organization that I submit?? The check comes seperate from the product?

I just want to make sure that this is the only thing different from a normal cooking or catalog show.

The chairperson picked her 60% off stone, one booking will get $3 added to the check, (which I assume HO will add that to the check automatically)

Am I forgetting anything???

Thanks bunches!!

Hey all,

Still looking for help and advice.

Anyone ever close a fundraiser before?

I would appreciate any help.

That sounds right to me, but the only fundraiser I have done is the HWC one so all I had to do was check the ACS box.
 
I don't know if this is too late - but from what you've written it sounds like you've done everything right.

I've only had one or two myself - but the check mails separately to the group and as far as I know the extra $3 for bookings is included.

Congrats on finishing your first fundraiser! I've got two coming up and I hope they go well...
