Sea Dogs Introduce New Fundraising Program
The Sea Dogs realize that many organizations are in need of fundraising efforts with the state of the economy and budget cuts. The Sea Dogs want to do our part as good community partners to help provide organizations with an avenue to raise funds.
The Sea Dogs Ticket Book Fundraising Program is perfect for school groups, churches, non-profits, camps, summer leagues, or any organization looking to raise money. Participating organizations will sell Portland Sea Dogs ticket books containing five general admission tickets good for any 2010 regular season home game (except the July 5, 2010 game). Your organization sells the book for $20 (normally a $35 value - a $15 savings to the customer!!!). The Sea Dogs will give your organization $5.00 for every book sold.
If your organization has 50 people and each participant sells just 5 ticket books, that's 250 ticket books sold. Thus, 250 ticket books sold x $5.00 per book = $1,250.00 for your organization!
HOW DOES IT WORK? The members of your organization sell the ticket books. After your "selling" period, you would then bring the money collected and any un-sold ticket books to the Sea Dogs office. The Sea Dogs will then give your organization $5.00 for every ticket book sold. It is that easy! And to make it fun for the members of your organization, the Sea Dogs will award prizes to members who sell at least 5 books, 10 books and a special prize for members who sell 25 or more!
All you do is sell the ticket books and collect the money. The Sea Dogs will do the rest; mail reward vouchers directly to the sellers who earned the prizes (i.e. 5, 10 or 25 or more sold), send commission earnings to your organization immediately upon receiving payment, and make sure it is the easiest fundraiser ever!
If you have any questions about the ticket book fundraiser or are interested in participating, please contact John at the Sea Dogs office at (207) 874-9300 or[email protected].
