refugemiddleschool: Flamingo Fundraiser

Starting March 20 through April 17... To help your student fund student ministry events

If your church youth group, sports team, school, or charity organization is
looking for a fun and profitable way to raise funds, Flamingo Flocking can
help you reach your fundraising goals without any selling!

HOW A FLAMINGO FLOCKING FUNDRAISER WORKS:

Using a church youth group for our example, an announcement is made to
the church that the youth group is trying to raise funds for
(fill in the blank cause) and that they will do so by holding a
Flamingo Flocking Fund Raiser.

Under the cover of darkness, the youth group will visit a member of the
church's front yard and proceed to fill it with 20+ Pink Flamingos! In order to
have the obnoxious pink birds removed, the "victim" must make a donation
to the youth group's cause. Once a donation is made, the "victim" gets to
choose who in the congregation will be the next recipient of the Flamingo
Flock. The youth group then removes the Flamingos and delivers them to
the next selected recipient after dark. This cycle continues until the
fund raiser is over.

One twist to the fund raiser is to offer "Flamingo insurance" to the church
members at the time the fundraiser is originally announced. For a amount
to be determined, a member can insure that the Flamingos will never visit
his/her yard by paying the "insurance premium" up front.

SUCCESS STORY

Dear Plastic-Flamingos.com,

I just wanted to say thank you! I ordered a box 20 flamingos from your
company back in November 2003. I am the mother of a dancer. My daughter
and her friends were trying to raise money so that they could attend 2
dance competitions later this year. When we started we thought if we could
earn 1/3 of what they needed we would be pleased. We ended up making
enough to cover the entire cost! We had so much fun each night going out
and moving our flock around. The people who donated and participated
loved it! We even made wreaths for their necks for the Christmas season.
The girls had a blast, and I must admit the moms did as well. Thank you
again for making the flamingo's available.
