Hello my Mia Bella Family! I just got my very first fundraiser. Our local volunteer fire company has decided to do a fundraiser with our wonderful candles. I am soooooo excited. I sure hope I do this right. Wish me luck ladies and gentleman. I will let you know how it turns out.

Congrats - Way to to go !!

I have a couple of questions, hopefully you can maybe help me out ???

I too, am looking at doing fundraisers. Can you tell me how much you charged the customers, how much you decided to keep yourself, etc. I basically would like to get an idea as to how your did your figures. Also, what info did you give the organization - did you put together a big packet of stuff, or did you direct them to the website, etc. etc.

Any info you can give me as to how you got started would be a HUGE help to me. I realize there is a bunch of stuff in the back office regarding info on fundraisers etc., but I would just like to hear how you did it yourself. It sounds like the method / figures you used definitely worked out well !!

Thankyou
