We have sold chic-fil-a calendars, created a calendar with all the school events, field trips, early releases, school functions, box top/campbells/due dates , spirit day event, pto meetings, socials, fundraisers, etc. on This has been a HUGE hit for parents. We sell spirit wear only in the fall and sell it to parents and students. Pampered Chef offers a fundraiser and this can be done on line. We are doing an ice cream social with Cold Stone Ice Cream, Target credit card credits, MVP with Food Lion, a nursery in our area will give us 5% back (using for maintenace), scholastic book fairs (fall and spring, Silent Auction/Dinner in the spring, annual giving campaign, read a thon (ask each child to raise $30) --each grade has different directions.

American Publishers Hearst Fundraising sounds like it could be what most of you are looking for. It's magazines! The major benefits, no inventory, no storing products waiting for parents to get around to picking them up, and best of all, most families already buy magazines so a lot of them just renew through the school and we make the profit without asking a lot from the parents. There number is 888-233-9041

Does IPI stand for something? I couldn't find it right away when I searched.

The irony of commitment is that it’s deeply liberating-in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life. --Anne Morris

Just wanted to let you know we found a fundraiser company that will UPS (at no charge) every order to the sellers home. We (I should say I as I am the one always left doing this) end up storing items for weeks sometimes months and make phone call after phone call until someone finally picks up the times. This will eliminate that! The name of the company is IPI...our brochures are out now so I will have to wait to talk about any problems we might have. Email me for more information on this company.....settlma@hotmail.com

Our school has always used Sally Foster for our fall fundraiser. We thought about switching last year and the outcry was heard all over town! We make a ton of money and the customer service is awesome!
