Fundraiser
by hols537 » Mon May 07, 2012 05:53 am
I wanted to hold a fundraiser to raise money to donate. Do I need any special permission or is it OK to go ahead to do this? Since I'm a Stella & Dot representative, I would like to hold a "virtual trunk show" and donate my profits to the Preeclampsia Foundation in honor of Preeclampsia Awareness Month. Any input would be great as I was hoping to kick this off within the next few days to make the most of Awareness Month. Thanks!

Thank you. I guess the main thing is that I would be telling people that I'm raising this money to donate to the Preeclampsia Foundation, so I won't need any active support but the OK to use the name

We greatly appreciate your fundraising efforts. Thanks so much!! As long as your buyers realize they won't be getting a tax deductible receipt (unless they're writing a check TO the Preeclampsia Foundation), there's really nothing else that raises any concerns here.
