Unlike other 'do-it-yourself' fundraising efforts, which tend to be much more labor-intensive, with brochure fundraising, we act as your liaison between the product supplier and you. We are available to provide guidance and support and trouble-shoot any problems that might arise, reducing volunteer time while maximizing sales. In addition, there is no upfront cost because we provide all of your fundraising supplies at no charge. Brochure fundraisers work because results are fast and people like buying quality products for a worthy cause. Each year, non-profit groups net about $2 billion through brochure fundraising.
Delivery of fundraising merchandise takes approximately 3 weeks from the time that your order is received by our packing company.
Big Event Fundraising will happily replace any missing or damaged (non-frozen) school fundraising merchandise. Should an item not meet the expectations of a seller, we will immediately credit you the amount that was billed on your invoice. Big Event Fundraising has a 100% satisfaction guaranteed policy!
Gymnasiums, cafeterias or other large centralized areas make excellent distribution locations for your school fundraising merchandise.
Our frozen food and cookie dough fundraising programs are shipped on a refrigerated carrier. The product will arrive frozen and should be distributed the same day the shipment is received. If the product is not picked up by the seller/parent at the end of the day, arrangements must be made to refrigerate the items. Big Event Fundraising is not responsible for product not stored properly.
You can choose from several brochures. We will thus guide your organization to the best possible brochure choice to help maximize your profits. Most organizations will select one of our large shoppers and then have the option of adding one of our exclusive tag brochures like our school mug brochure. In most cases selecting one fundraising brochure will work just fine.
