Is the May Fundraiser for Cancer Walk Participants Treated Differently?

[missiemom]

I have booked a fundraiser for May. It's for 4 ladies who are doing the cancer walk in Chicago in August. They need to raise x amount for each of them to participate. Does the fudraiser run like a normal fundriaser %age wise? Or because they are doing it in May do they get the increase? I haven't told them anything about the increase yet cuz I wasn't sure if the increase was only for those fundraisers were the money was being raised for the ACS. I hope someone understands my question cuz at this point I think I am confused.

This is correct. So, if they are doing a fundraiser for THEIR foundation, it's just the normal FR %, not the higher amount!

You may want to suggest to them that instead of doing it like a fundraiser, that they do it as a regular show, and apply the FPV to gift baskets to raffle off. That way, instead of getting $75 for a $500 show, they can get $90 worth of free product, and raffle it off for a lot more!

I think that is what I'm going to do for Relay for Life.

I just love to see other people involved with Relay for Life on here! I am Project Cord. for my County Comm. and a Team Capt. for my church and hearing others talk about something I am passionate about just warms my heart! You are an amazing group of women her at CS!

Thank You! You guys are awesome. :angel: I have to talk to her because there are 4 women on the team. I told her that we could run 4 seperate fundraisers or we could do one big one. I also gave her the option of having it as a cooking show and they all invite friends & family or we could run it as a catalog fundraiser. She is going to talk to the other 3 this week.
I will mention the running it as a regular show & then taking the free product & raffeling it off because they are doing 3 or 4 brat fry's too and could sell the tickets during those and at the end pick a winner.
