Fundraiser and Sponsership Policies

I love supporting my community through fundraisers and charitable events. To ensure transparency and fairness, I follow the guidelines below when donating services, gift certificates, or raffle items.

1. Registered Nonprofits & Schools

I prioritize donations to registered nonprofits and schools. Donations may include service gift certificates or curated gift baskets depending on the event.

Requirements:

• The organization must be a registered nonprofit, school, or school-affiliated program.

• Donations must be used specifically for the purpose described in the request (ex: auction, raffle, fundraising event, etc.).

• If the fundraiser is promoted publicly, I appreciate being tagged in social media posts or receiving a copy of the event flyer when possible. This helps participants know the donation is legitimate and connected to my business.

2. Private Team or Individual Fundraisers

I occasionally support private teams, clubs, or individual fundraising efforts (such as sports teams) through a raffle-style fundraiser.

For these fundraisers:

• The organizer is responsible for selling raffle tickets and collecting the funds.

• The organizer sets the ticket price and keeps all funds raised for the fundraiser.

• The organizer collects entrant contact information (name, phone number, and email).

• The contact list is provided to me, and I will draw the raffle winner on the agreed-upon date.

• I will provide the gift certificate directly to the winner.

For transparency, I ask that:

• I am tagged in any social media posts promoting the fundraiser or

• I receive a copy of the event flyer or promotional materials.

This ensures participants know the donation is legitimate and that I am connected to the fundraiser.

3. Bonus Offer for Raffle Participants

For raffles I sponsor, anyone who enters but does not win will receive a 30% off any service offer as a thank-you for supporting the fundraiser. This can help make the raffle more appealing and potentially increase participation.

4. Donation Limits

To ensure I can continue supporting community efforts while maintaining my business schedule, donations may be limited based on availability throughout the year.

5. Requesting a Donation

When requesting a donation, please include:

• Organization or team name

• Type of fundraiser

• Date of event or raffle drawing

• How the funds will be used

• Contact person and phone/email

Thank you for supporting local small businesses and for the work you do in the community.
