Briefly describe this fundraising event:
Let me introduce you to our company Delight Worldwide. Located in Austin, Texas, we are your Fundraising headquarters for school and non-profit fundraising ideas. We understand there are many fundraising choices available in the marketplace, which is why we're proud to present the finest product fundraiser in terms of quality, efficiency and profit potential. We offer an easy to manage fundraiser that earns profits of up to $5.67 per candle sold.

The Perfect Fundraising Product- Sell a product that people ACTUALY want! Candles are Americas best selling giftware item. We offer the best Premium Scented & Hand Crafted Candles. Everyone Loves candles!

Organizing the event:
Step one: Select a leader within your group as the Fundraising Director.

Step two: As the Fundraising Director your main job will be to motivate your team to fundraising success while overseeing the overall fundraising process. However, this is not always as easy as it may sound! Our company will help you in this area; we are always just a phone call away. A great strategy used by top Fundraising Directors is to spread the responsibility. They achieve this by taking their large group and divide it into several smaller groups. The Fundraising Director then designates a Fundraising Managers to each of the smaller groups. These managers become the eyes and ears of the director. This set-up makes it possible for the director to focus his or her full attention on just a hand full of managers. In-turn the managers are responsible for maintaining day-to-day leadership and contact with the members of their small group.

Step three: Set a clear goal for each participant then challenge them to beat this goal. Delight can help you set your goals. Also, it is very important to stress the reason for the fundraiser. Everyone in the team should know the exact purpose of the fundraiser as well as the goal.

Step four: When used correctly, an incentive or "prize" program can be a very useful motivational tool. Our company will help you come up with the best prize program option.

Step five: We will provide you with free color brochures, collection envelops and "scent samplers". To get started with your fundraiser simply hand these items out to each of your participants.

Step six: To make sure your fundraiser is going as scheduled, make it a point to perform a daily or weekly check-up with each of your participants (or managers).

Step seven: At the conclusion of your 2-3 week fundraiser, collect the order forms and money. Efficiency is key in step seven because any delays in turning in your order will only postpone the deliver of your candles. Once you secure all the money and having tallied your orders, you then keep your portion of the funds and mail the reminder to our company.

Step eight: Upon receipt of your order we will make your candles and ship them out to you within two to three weeks.

Step nine: Once you receive your candles- pass them out to your participants who will then will pass them out to their customers.

Step ten: Your done! Now is the best time to sign up for your next fundraiser.
