You offer the 5 products as the guest special on all of your May shows. Then enter them in on the guests sales like normal. $1 for each product automatically goes to ACS.
If you want to do a HWC fundraiser show (where up to $25 of sales goes to ACS) you can set up a HWC fundraiser (on your website as well) and then not only will the $1 go to ACS, but an additional %.
If you don't want to do a HWC fundraiser, and want to do a catalog show instead, you can set up a show on your website and the HWC products will be available just like a normal guest special would be. The benefit to this is that the host benefits are still intact and you can use them as a "mystery host" show to encourage orders.
It's your choice.
