November 04, 2007 - CorFun, a leading provider of fundraising services for non-profits, today announced a new initiative to put product fundraising within reach of even more organizations. Called Risk Free Fundraising the new program promises to make effective fundraising more affordable than ever.
What is Risk Free Fundraising? Often, to raise money quickly non-profits have to order and stock merchandise. Want to sell light up jewelry, novelties, or other products at a football game, concert, or fair?
Then it is usually necessary for the non-profit organization to order merchandise, try to sell it, and then deal with the consequences if the event doesn't work out as planned.
That can be a big problem for non-profits of all sizes, and fear of risk tends to dampen fundraising activity. While more money could be made in selling product, many non-profits opt for the safe route of one more hotdog sale or more cookies.
Well, Risk Free Fundraising from CorFun promises to change all that. Under CorFun's Risk Free plan, non-profits can stock up on high quality, desirable merchandise for sale at events with no out-of-pocket expense,
Here is how it works:
1. A non-profit selects the merchandise to sell and emails the information to CorFun.
2. The non-profit provides a credit card number to be used as security for the merchandise. A small deposit amount of $10 will be assessed against the card.
3. CorFun ships the merchandise, and even pays for the shipping (ground US).
4. The non-profit sells the merchandise for whatever price makes sense at the fund raising event. Regardless of the selling price, the non-profit will only pay CorFun a low wholesale price!
5. After the fund raising event, the non-profit sends CorFun a check or pays by credit card for the wholesale cost of merchandise that was sold. The $10 deposit amount can be refunded, or applied against the total outstanding.
6. Any unsold merchandise is returned to CorFun. In general an organization can keep the merchandise for 30 days. Longer time periods can be arranged.
Festivals, fairs, ball games, concerts, what other kinds of venues can you think of that would be great markets?
If your non-profit would like to earn serious money for almost no risk, then contact CorFun today, or visit www.corfun.com for more information!
