gourmet goodness food fundraising brochure
If you are searching for your next fundraiser search no further.  You’ve come to the right place. Welcome to Gifts ‘N Things, a trusted fundraising partner for more than 40 years and a family run business that is committed to serving our schools and communities. While a lot has changed over 40 years, some things haven’t, like our commitment to giving customers quality products at reasonable prices. Products your families will feel good about purchasing. We stand behind every product we sell with a 100% unconditional money-back guarantee that for any reason someone doesn’t like an item or simply changes their mind we will offer the customer a full refund and you keep the profit.

Great fundraising starts with quality products and a Gifts ‘N Things Winter Wonderland brochure features over 100 high-quality items from heavy-duty wrapping paper to time-saving kitchen items and unique gift items. We offer something for everyone including a wide variety of tasty chocolates, candy, gourmet mixes, magazines, and much, much more. 

If you want to add food to your sale without the headache and hassle of frozen food our Gourmet Goodness program is the perfect option.  It’s filled with a variety of cheese and sausage, gourmet mixes from soups to dip, and cheesecakes and cookies as well.

We are also committed to making your job easy as a volunteer. That’s why we offer a free Fundraising Made Simple program to all our sponsors. This program is designed to take the hassle out of running your fundraiser and motivate your students at the same time. From start to finish we are there to assure a smooth sale. Before the sale, we start with help writing your parent letters. We then collate brochures and group them in groups of 25 and then deliver your packets to your school ready to go for kick-off in our exclusive totes.  During your sale, we make it super easy and safe for students taking orders.  We start with 3-part order forms for added peace of mind. 

We give all students the ability to support your school through in-person selling as well as online shopping with an online store.  Our online store includes the ability to post to social media, send custom emails, text messages to family and friends.  The school gets the profit and the seller gets the prize credit. And, your customers get to choose to ship directly to their home or to the school where the student will deliver to them. And remember, safety is always our #1 priority. All our materials strongly emphasize no door to door selling.

When it comes to the packing and delivery of your fundraiser, we pride ourselves on accuracy and attention to detail.  We have a state-of-the-art scanning system to ensure a 99.9% order accuracy rating which means fewer headaches for you and your volunteers.  We pack and label all student orders with large, easy to read labels.  When the orders arrive, they’re simply ready to be handed out to your families.

We also provide you as a volunteer, all the computer reports and sale summaries in an easy to read format that details all sellers, orders, prizes, and internet sales.  We put the fun back into fundraising! Great products, easy ordering, and accurate delivery are all super important. But equally important is motivating your students to participate in the fundraiser. Our prize program starts with selling just 1 item. The first 3 levels are cumulative and starting at level 4 the students pick a prize of their choice. It’s the best of both worlds. We also pride ourselves in offering quality prizes that students will enjoy, and parents will appreciate it.  And don’t forget about the many other fun and rewarding incentive options including our ice cream, yogurt, and healthy treat party for homerooms with 50% participation, our online registration kick-start program where a student can earn a “Monster Collectible Clip" for registering online, and our Homeroom "Monster Reversible Pillow" where every homeroom will be given to each homeroom for drawing when selling 3 items. A coupon is printed on the participant letter for the student to fill out and return to their classroom once they have sold just items.

We also make promoting your sale easy with our school kick-off kits. This kit provides everything you’ll need to promote your sale including hallway posters and classroom posters where students can sign their name as soon as they participate.

Doing the little things to get the word out to your families is part of our commitment to you so we’ll supply you with free samples of product and food for your school open house. After the sale as a thank you to the people who are running the sale, these samples are yours to keep.

We are not only the leader in fundraising brochures but also in school holiday shops. If your school runs a fundraiser brochure sale and our Lil’ Shopper’s Holiday Shoppe we’ll give every child in your school one free Lil’ Shopper’s Shoppe dollar to spend at the holiday shop. Every child will be able to participate with their one free dollar and have 50 cents to spend on Mom and Dad each so everyone at the school will discover the joy of giving. 

PS, If you choose this program reserve your brochures asap. This brochure can sell out and for best sales, we suggest starting asap in the fall season. If you have any questions please call us day, evening, or weekend. Our number is (860) 384-3691 or send an email to deb@best-fundraising-ideas.com.  If you are ready to sign up now call us or complete the ”Request a Fundraising Agreement” sheet and submit it to us by email or fax to 410-630-7080.  We’ll complete the agreement for you and then email it to you for your signature.
