Raising More Than Just Funds
A. You can Contact Us online, email us at info@resourcefundraising.com, or give us a call at (800) 642-0780 to speak with a fundraising specialist now.
A. Once you have decided on your best fundraiser we need to have a signed Fundraiser Agreement. This gives the information we need to have your order placed and be on your way to a successful fundraiser!
A. We guarantee any damaged or missing products will be replaced or refunded.
A. All fundraising products may not be returned without written permission from Resource Solutions. We do this to maintain the highest standards and quality of products sent to you.
A. Yes, we can work with the very small groups of 8-9 all the way up to large organizations of 1000 or more. We also sell to any type of non-profit organization including individuals who are raising money for special projects.
A. Yes, you should collect money while taking orders. Any checks should be made payable to your organization. At the end of your fundraiser, you will send Resource Solutions your cost of products sold, and keep your profit dollars.
A. Most pre-order taking fundraising small groups (20-30) can expect average sales of $100-$150 per person. Large groups (over 200) can expect average sales of $80-$120 per person (approx. 1/2 of group will participate). Candy fundraisers average about 1½ boxes of candy per student. Discount cards and Lawn bags can vary from 5-20 cards per person selling. Not all kids will participate in every group unless it is mandatory. Some kids will only sell a few items, while others will sell lots of items. Prizes and incentives will boost your sales considerably.
A. We recommend no more than a 2-3 week selling period including at least 2 weekends. Allow time for late orders to come in. Most sales are done in 2-3 days so don’t let the fundraiser drag on for weeks. This will keep your participants motivated and on track.
A. After we receive your signed Fundraising Agreement we will send order forms and catalogs to you prior to your start date. They usually take 4-5 days to ship UPS ground. Planning ahead makes sure you receive them in plenty of time for your sale.
A. Most fundraisers that we ship out of state are not subject to sales tax from Resource Solutions. Any sales tax due would be the responsibility of the customer to their state. Kansas residents must provide a Sales Tax Exemption form to be exempt from local sales tax.
A. We accept checks, money orders, Mastercard, Visa, Discover, American Express and Pay Pal. We have 30-day terms available to qualified customers. Payment is expected at time of order unless pre-approved for credit.

A. Most of our products are sent as a bulk order. The order is shipped all together and must be divided to hand out. With the Student Pack option (not available on all fundraisers) orders are already tallied and sorted by student and classroom when you receive the products. Student packed orders also come with a complete computer printout of individual sales.
