I have a host doing a fundraiser in Conneticut. She is a friend of mine, and is planning on just passing catalogs around and have people order online for her fundraiser.

I was just curious if anyone puts together a fundraiser packet for the hosts, just like we do for cooking shows. You know something with catalogs, order forms, and maybe some fliers?? Anyone do this??

I could use some ideas and help with this.

thanks:sing:
 
I have a zip file on here that I have all the forms that I give out to my fundraiser chair person

I have tried to upload it again but for some reason it is telling me "file error"

If you want my files, please e-mail me at [email protected] and I will e-mail you back the zip files

Thanks and sorry that I can't upload
