Is there anything on CC that explains a fundraiser? I found information on this site (of course) but was trying to see what PC itself has on fundraisers and couldn't find anything. I know the 10-15% breakdown only because I read it here. If I did not have access to CS, where would I find fundraiser information?

TIA
 
Nope. I'm not sure why, but I haven't been able to find ANYTHING on CC regarding the standard fundraiser (there's plenty about HWC and MSABC, though!). I was trying to forward a link to the fundraiser flyer to a FR host through email, but realized I'll just have to mail her the flyer that I got from supply. You can order a set of 15 FR flyers on supply order - that's all I've been able to find. Either that, or make your own using the Policies & Procedures as your guide.

Cooking Show Fundraisers

Cooking Show Fundraisers are usually most appropriate
for organizations that have regular meetings. This might
include garden and women’s clubs, church groups and
fraternal organizations. Other appropriate groups include
your child’s sports team, dance group or any other interested
organization.

This event is essentially a Cooking Show for a select
group. The chairperson for the organization’s fundraiser is
considered the host. However, instead of receiving free, halfprice
and discounted products, the organization receives a
cash contribution from The Pampered Chef®.

Based on sales, a contribution of 10-15 percent is made
directly to the organization.

• The contribution is based on the total guest sales before
tax and shipping. All guest sales must include sales tax.
There is no tax exempt status for an individual.
• If total guest sales before tax and shipping are less than
$600, the contribution is 10 percent.
• If total guest sales before tax and shipping are $600 or
more, the contribution will be 15 percent.
• An additional $3 will be contributed for every future
Show booking from the fundraiser.
• The merchandise and the fundraiser check will be shipped
separately to the ship-to address.
• The fundraiser check must be payable to an organization.
Checks will not be issued to an individual. We cannot
send the fundraiser check to a separate address.
• You can earn 15 percent commission on Cooking Show
Fundraisers, which is increased to 17 percent once you
achieve $15,000 in career sales.

Fundraisers and the Host Program
• The organization is not eligible for host benefits.
• The chairperson is eligible to purchase one Monthly
Host Special as a thank you for organizing the Show.
• No Booking Benefits are awarded from a
fundraiser because the organization receives
$3 for each booking.
• However, if the fundraiser was booked from
a Cooking or Catalog Show, that past host can
purchase the Monthly Host Special at the
Fundraiser Show.

Special Advantages
of Cooking Show
Fundraisers
• Each customer can order from a wide range of useful,
high-quality items. As at a regular Show, guests place
orders after the demonstration.
• Fundraisers provide a more enjoyable way for club or group
members to interact than the usual business meeting.
• No extra time is needed for door-to-door or special event sales.

Thanks, I am glad it isn't just me. I did find a flier that you made up awhile ago that I will probably use, just figured I would double check that I am not missing it before I try to reinvent the wheel.
