I have a friend who is looking into adoption.
If anyone is familiar with this, it is VERY pricey.
She emailed me last night and wants to do a PC fundraiser.
How would I get the money sent to her?
Would she have to have a seperate checking acct or can it go directly to her regular checking acct?
TIA
 
Is she handling it through a specific adoption agency? If so, maybe the check could be made out to them.
 
I'm pretty sure she needs to set up a seperate bank account. She also needs to make sure that family and friends send emails to everyone they know also to help her raise money.

And may they have much luck with the process.
 
She needs to set up a specific account - She can check with her bank. rMy very first show was a fundraiser for my sister's adoption She now has two kids that have been adopted form Russia. My sister just aclled it the Kendrick Adoption Fund and had not problem with PC sending her the check

It is very expensive to do adoptions If she isn't with a specific organization and is thinking about international adoption have her check out European Adoption Consultants www.eaci.com My sister has used them twcie and they took very good care of her both timess
 
Hi there,Thank you for reaching out about your friend's adoption journey. I am sorry to hear that it can be quite expensive. I would be happy to help with a Pampered Chef fundraiser to help raise funds for her adoption.To answer your question, the money raised from the fundraiser can be sent directly to your friend's regular checking account. We can set up a personalized fundraiser link for her to share with friends and family, and all the proceeds from the orders placed through that link will go towards her adoption fund. Your friend can also choose to receive the funds in the form of a Pampered Chef gift certificate, which can be used towards purchasing products for her kitchen.Please let me know if you would like to move forward with setting up a fundraiser for your friend. I am here to support her in any way I can.Best,
