Fundraising
Haggus and Stookles values the work that the Community does in educating, assisting and caring for our children and we would like to give back a percentage of sales to those organisations that nurture and care for children.
Are you eligible?
If your organisation's primary purpose is to educate, assist or care for children, we would be very happy to have you on board as part of our fundraising program. If you are a Children's Charity, Day Care/Kindergarten Centre, School or Children's Community Group that raise funds through fundraising events in the community, please contact us. Note, we will assess each application on a case by case basis and Haggus and Stookles reserve the right to accept or refuse an application.
How it works?
It's easy. It involves little effort on your part and we provide all the marketing material.
We suggest a fundraising period of 4-6 weeks, or no longer than one term. Your organisation will be given a unique code which can be given out to families, members and their associates. After shopping online, this code is entered by them at the checkout stage of their order. We keep track of the sales applicable to your organisation by this unique code.
At the end of the fundraising drive, 10% of the sales (excluding freight charges) generated from your unique code will be calculated and given to you.
Your unique code will be deactivated after the fundraising deadline has passed.
Note, if you would like to arrange subsequent fundraising drives in the future, we would be very happy to enter into a new fundraising drive and supply you with another unique code and marketing material at that time.
How is the money given back to your organisation?
You will receive the money in one of the following forms, depending on your individual circumstances:
- If you have a registered building fund, we will give you a cash donation in the name of the building fund. We require a receipt from you in our company name.
- If you are a deductible gift recipient, we will give you a cash donation in the name of the DGC. We require a receipt from you in our company name.
- If you are/have neither of the above, we will purchase equipment, books or school supplies from your preferred supplier. We will notify you of the amount due to you and you can specify to us where and what you would like us to purchase (new books for library, new paints for art time). We will buy directly from the supplier and the invoice/receipt will be issued in our company name. A preferred supplier would be situated in your local area to reduce postage costs to you. Note: the postage will form part of the funds raised from your unique code purchases.
What we ask of you?
We ask you to simply display and give out some promotional material that we supply to you. We will supply you with all the following materials:
- A Haggus and Stookles poster outlining our website, the fundraising arrangement and deadline and your organisation's unique code for people to enter at the checkout stage of their order.
- Haggus and Stookles postcards for people to take home. The postcards have information about us, the fundraising arrangement and deadline and your unique code for people to refer to when they are at home. We ask you to put them in each child's pockets (if relevant) or leave the pile of postcards near our poster for people to take home.
- A small advertisement for your newsletter promoting our fundraising arrangement. All artwork and wording will be supplied to you in soft copy. This is to be a free advertisement to run during the fundraising drive.
