Youth going on Summer trips AND 6th graders hiking on the WT -
Do you need money??? Well, then here's how you can earn some:
What you need to know now:
-If you WORK the fundraisers, you personally will BENEFIT from the fundraisers. These fundraisers will not go into the general pot. Each youth will have an account and any money raised from either fundraiser will be deducted from the trip/s of your choice. (Youth Choir Tour, Confrontation Point, or Wilderness Trail) Funds raised at table sales at church on a Wednesday or Sunday will be equally divided AMONG THOSE ACTIVELY WORKING the table sale. That means helping set up the table, putting up posters, and sitting at the table and helping. (Or anything else the adults in charge ask you to help do.) Funds raised from sales generated on your own, (anything you sell on your own outside of the table sales at church) will go directly into your personal account.
-The Honey Baked Ham sale works as follows:
1. You will have an order form and take orders for gift certificates, redeemable at any Honey Baked Ham store or online, in increments of $10, $25, $35, and $50. (The certificates do NOT expire.)
2. When you take an order, you will collect a check made payable to FUMC.
3. Orders will be turned in and redeemed at the store for the actual gift certificates.
4. HERE'S THE COOL PART. We get to keep 20% of the money. So, if you sell $500 in gift certificates, there will be $100 in your trip account.
5. Certificates will be delivered/picked up. People who ordered at church will pick up certificates at church, or you will deliver to your personal sales customers that do not come to church.
-WE ARE NOT delivering any food, only gift certificates.
-Remember, Honey Baked Ham sells a lot more than ham. They have turkey, casseroles, side dishes, sauces, dips, cakes, sandwiches for lunch, etc.
Overall fundraiser schedule:
Wednesday, March 5-Sunday, March 16: In addition to sales at church tables on Wednesdays and Sundays, you will be able to sell individually on your own.
Thursday, March 13: Orders due for gift certificates to be delivered by Sunday, March 16. (Certificates can be picked up at the sales tables Sunday morning. Those not picked up will be left in the front office for pick up.)
Sunday, March 16: Orders due for gift certificates to be delivered by Tuesday, March 18 or Wednesday, March 19. (Certificates will be available for pick up in the front office during the day Tuesday and Wednesday; plus we can set up tables again Wednesday for remaining certificates to be picked up.)
Again, orders for certificates sold at church will be picked up at church. You will be responsible for delivering certificates you sell on your own.
