We LOVE Club's Choice!!! We chose a consumable product so people would buy every year. The brochure comes in spanish and english. they do the flyer home, the kick-off assembly, but, best of all, they sort the product and stay and help with pick up until all orders are picked up. They sell pizza, candy nuts, cookie dough, and other food items. The catalog contains gift wrap and gifty items. I HIGHLY reccommend Club's Choice.

I am in charge of our PTO fall "product" sale each year and for the last 2 years we have went with MC Fundrasiers. They offer several different programs and the best part...all the orders come pre-sorted by seller!!! YAY for me since I am in charge of the delivery process too, makes pick up of orders easy and fast!

They also have seller incentives and director incentives. They work with large and small groups. Our group is around 500 children each year. Our sale starts in a week or so and we are planning to top last years total of $37,000.00!!

Hi Ginnykhi!
pcgeekess brings up a good point that every school district and school is different. Something else to think about is how this fundraiser fits with your overall fundraising plan. Here is a quiz on fundraising that may be helpful in making your decision:

We did the candle on, profits were good. People like the product, especially as gifts. contact me and I'll forward you the info if you like:)

Every school is different mostly because of the social dynamics of the school district that you are in. The district that my child is in is a small inner city. We struggled the first year to find the right fit with fundraisers and found traditional fundraising flopping big. We still haven't gotten it down perfectly but in our school the better of the fundraisers were Chuckie Cheese night (they give a percentage of the nights sales) and Display my art (parents order items with their childs art recreated on them, like mugs and things) Both were easy to organize and we will be doing them again. Hope that helps.

I'm researching fundraisers and was wondering what people thought was better? To work with a company that only offers one type of program such as gift-wrap, cookie dough, and magazines OR to work with a company that offers a variety of fundraisers?
