We can offer plenty of assistance and helpful hints on how to kick off a successful fundraiser. For additional information, see our “10 Steps for a Successful Fundraiser” on our home page.
Q. Is there a difference between fundraising distributors?
A. Yes, there can be many differences between Fundraising Distributors. We suggest you contact several and compare their different programs.

Be sure to do your homework, we think you will find that Award Fund Raising offers a very profitable program with our assistance for your group from beginning to end!
Q. How much money can we expect to make?
A. The amount of money that you make will depend on several different things:* The number of participants selling product
* The type of product your group chooses to sell
* How many products your group chooses to sell. (For example, we have many groups that take orders for candles while selling their candy. This helps them to maximize their profit potential)!
