Sorry Amy, Southern Exposure sent me an email saying they would donate, so that's why I posted about them, maybe they changed their policy after getting too many requests? Sorry about that, just sharing a place a got a yes from.
I am very interested in purchasing Disney World tickets through a PTA auction. Our PTA received Disneyland tickets for our auction and they went over very well. However, we are taking our family vacation to South Carolina/Georgia and Florida this year. I would really like to help out another PTA in their fundraising efforts and at the same time get the tickets we need to complete our trip. Please let me know if you have the tickets, when your event is and if someone in your organization would be willing to help me be a telephone bidder on the tickets!!! POWER TO THE PTAs!!!!!!
Betsy - I searched the local town McDonalds online and that page had a donation request link. I filled out the online form. I got a call back withing 10 minutes because the Manager happened to be at her computer at that time. I was requesting breakfast sausage. She informed me that they could not donate meat products but offered the frozen pancakes instead.
Kim G: I also got onto other non-profit organizations and looked at their sponsor pages to get ideas for submitting donation requests to those I hadn't thought of approaching. Some major companies were Brazil Butt Lift/PX90 and Shurtech/Frog Tape.
I went through DonationX in August 2013 for my November auction. The sports teams I applied to through there replied right away and sent a donation. As like you, AMC said "waiting". We never heard or received anything. Yet the other day, on March 9th, I received a decline from them. At that point ... Why bother?? LOL
