First Fundraiser Questions & Link to Website?

[kam]

I have been approached about doing a Fundraiser. It will be a cooking show with the host (Chairperson) getting a lot of outside orders.

The host asked if the organization (it is non-profit) can put a link on their website to my website for them to order. She said it would be listed under "Events" and would not be on the home page.

I am thinking this is possible but we need to get permission from HO first??? If this is possible - do we just call customer service or is there a special department to ask for?

Thanks!

Call Career Solutions (I forget what option # they are) on Monday. They should allow it they did it for me when I did a fundraiser for the Alzheimer's Association in September for a limited amount of time.

If you have a PWS and set the FR up on there (as a show), there's a form right there for you to fill out that goes to HO for approval. Otherwise, the procedure is in the policies document. HO usually approves it - unless it's a political organization, or one that is otherwise controversial or contrary to the values of the company. There is a time limit for the link, but that's all covered in the policies.

Ah, thanks! I have not set it up on my PWS yet!

I re-read the policies and procedures to double check the amounts, etc but I must have missed the website info part. Maybe it's not with the FR info, but with the website info. Off I go to look! Thanks for setting me in the right direction!

Atleast when I call the host to get the full info on the organization, I can let her know I need to put in for approval!

Thanks!

Hello! Thank you for considering doing a fundraiser with Pampered Chef. We are always excited to help support non-profit organizations through our products and cooking shows. As for the link on the organization's website, it is always best to get permission from our Home Office first to ensure that all policies and procedures are followed correctly. You can contact our customer service department and they will be able to direct you to the appropriate department for this request. We appreciate your attention to detail and look forward to making this fundraiser a success!
