Going Green Fundraiser

2 Years, 6 Months ago

Page: 12


 
Since going green is the new way of life, our elementary school recently signed on to sell green cleaning products that are made with enzymes. Everyone cleans, so it's not the stuff people won't use. The great thing is they are safe for people, pets and the environment. Each kit contains four, 3ounce bottels and a stain pen. What's in the kit: laundry detergent, all purpose cleaner, glass and stainless cleaner, carpet and upholstery and a stain pen. For each kit sold the organization receives $7.50. If you are interested in the contact details for the company, just send us an email to lacureboosters@gmail.com and one of the officers will get back with you. Good Luck everyone!

How many loads of laundry does a 3 ounce bottle do? Not much I imagine. Seems like a high price for "sample" type sizes. In this economy I can't see any of the parents at our school spending (guestimate) $15 for little bottles of cleaner.

Our group felt very strong about the green initiative and how it promotes a positive teaching to the students in the school. We are introducing products that are environmentally safe, non toxic and safe for our kids.

As you may know, many fundraising products have a higher cost, but people are still willing to purchase them to support their children and the school. Our group signed on because of where the green movement is going....everybody wants green right now! Green is the new trend. So, are thought was, why not try a new fundraiser that people want and need; Instead of the same ole catalog fundraiser, which is high priced: people buy it and shove it in their closet. I know the economy is bad, believe me, our area has a 17% unemployment rate. Even though the economy is bad our last fundraiser did great, because people want to help.

As per the fundraising representative the laundry detergent is 1 ounce per load in a regular washer (3 loads) or 1/2 ounce in a HE washer (6 loads). I actually took a sample home and tried it: I fell in love! The products worked and they worked good!

Is this something you run all year long? Since they are such small quantities, it might help to always have them available so people can re-stock when they run out. Howver, I can't see spending that much money to do 3 or 6 loads of laundry, especially because I do 12-15 loads of laundry per week. Buying my detergent in 3 ounce quantities would cost me a fortune. I support my school, but this isn't something that I could get behind, when it's much cheaper to purchase my green cleaning products from the grocery store. I do hope it works out for you though!

Yea, we hope the fundraiser goes well too. It has went great for some of the churches and sports groups in the area, so we thought we'd try it.This fundraiser is a specific time period, set by your organization; not all year. If someone tried the small pack and wanted more, it is available to purchase by anyone, in regular quantities and also commercially. Best of luck to what you participate in. I will post the end result when it is over.

Green New Earth Fundraising. Going green is such an important part of daily life. Educating our youth today about conserving and recycling will benefit the planet in the future.
Our school used an incredible green fundraising group called Green New Earth. They are well known in Chicago and California. We Partnered with them because they have great sustainable products but also their fundraiser is very simple to use and they provide so many tools and resources to help your school raise funds. My daughters softball team also used them to raise money for their uniforms. They also have benchmark goals so if your group or school reaches certain numbers they give you bigger cut of the funds.
