Fundraising Activities

Please complete Fund Raising Application Form( see attachment #5) prior to beginning any fundraising activities

Principal must approve form before you begin your fundraising activities.

Principal will determine how many fundraising events you will have. Each club is allowed two tax free days during

the course of one year. You can sell items without charging sales taxes.

Upon completion of fund raising activity, you must complete the Financial Recap at the bottom of the fundraising application form.

Our internal auditor will be focusing on the proper completion of this form during the upcoming year and relying on it to reconcile gross sales and expenses to monies deposited and fundraising bills paid.

There should be a purpose for the fundraiser (ex. What will monies be used for?), a fundraiser should not be done just because it’s always been done.
