Briefly describe this fundraising event:
This catalog based method contains home decor and gift items all priced at $19.99 or less. The participants distribute catalogs to family/friends and collect orders and payments.

Organizing the event:
In a school environment, letters (provided by the company) can be sent to determine which students will actively participate. This helps to determine the actual number of catalogs you will need for cost-effectiveness. Allow 1 week to receive the amount of catalogs required. Allow 2 weeks for order & payment collection. The orders will arrive to your organization for distribution or directly to the recipients (your choice) in the next 1-2 weeks.

Capital possibilities:
Your organization earns 35%-50% depending on shipping costs, catalog costs (The company provides up to 200 free) $0.50 per every catalog and whether or not award prizes are given.

Degree of difficulty:
Simple. Because the items are priced to sell quickly (for less than $20), there is little resistance from patrons and enough room for a respectable profit margin. The orders can be shipped directly to each recipient, or to your organization. The company will help every step of the way from organizing through distribution.
