This is an offer to do a quick and easy fundraiser for someone who is already hosting a food drive here in my office.

The purpose of the flyer is to give her information specific to her and her cause, and lay it out as simply as possible. I want this to be a secondary resource for her, besides the conversations we will have.

I'm notorious for overcomplicating and giving too much information, so please review and offer feedback.

Thanks so much!

I think it is fine and a wonderful suggestion! Let us know how it works out for you. I'm glad you also mentioned the full catalog if anyone is interested.
 
What a great idea! Thanks!!
 
What a GREAT IDEA!! Maybe you should include the tax. I know people complain that they have to pay tax on top of it? Just an idea! :)

Thanks, I'm glad you all like it.

I am planning to do a half-page flyer for her to pass out if she wants, and that one will include the tax.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Easy Fundraising for Your Office Food Drive program?

The Easy Fundraising for Your Office Food Drive program is a simple way for offices to raise funds while providing delicious and convenient food options. By partnering with Pampered Chef, your office can host a fundraising event where a portion of the sales goes directly to support your food drive efforts.

How does the fundraising process work?

To start the fundraising process, your office will select a date for the event and promote it to employees. Participants can then place orders for Pampered Chef products, and a percentage of those sales will be donated to your food drive. After the event, the funds raised will be collected and used to purchase food items for those in need.

What types of products can we sell during the fundraising event?

During the fundraising event, you can sell a wide range of Pampered Chef products, including kitchen tools, cookware, bakeware, and food items. These products are designed to make cooking easier and more enjoyable, making them appealing to a variety of customers.

How much of the sales goes to our food drive?

The percentage of sales that goes to your food drive can vary based on the specific fundraising program you choose. Typically, Pampered Chef offers a generous percentage, often around 20-30%, to support your fundraising efforts. Be sure to check the details of the program for exact percentages.

How can we promote the fundraising event to our office staff?

To promote the fundraising event, consider using email newsletters, office bulletin boards, and team meetings to spread the word. You can also create flyers or digital graphics to share on your office's intranet or social media channels. Engaging your colleagues with fun incentives, such as prizes for the highest sales or participation, can also boost interest and participation.
