I feel like I should know this, but for some reason I seem to be confused. If someone books a show from a fundraiser PC donates an extra $3 to the fundraiser, do these shows need to be held before the fundraiser is submitted?
It seems kinda risky giving the money before the show is held. I think that is why I am confused. I mean, I would truly hope noone would book a show just to get extra donation and then not hold it, but you never know.
 
They get the $3 for each booking as long as it is in PP or P3 when you submit it. I like to add another $7 (for a total of $10) when the show is held. That helps to make them stick.

I'm just starting, but I'm offering an extra $2.00 when the show is held. Hum....but maybe $7 is a better incentive. I'm kicking off my 2nd fundraiser tomorrow and it will be HUGE!!!!! :D

Thanks so much. I am actually giving an extra $2, but now $7 seems much better. hmmm....
thanks for answering so quickly!
 


Hi there! I can understand your confusion about this. The $3 donation from PC for a fundraiser show is actually a separate donation from the host's rewards. So even if the show is not held, the fundraiser will still receive the $3 donation. However, it is always best to have the show held before submitting the fundraiser to ensure the success of the event. Thank you for bringing up this concern, and I hope this clarifies things for you. Happy cooking!
