| Last
year eight area schools raised nearly $4,000 with fundraisers
at Doc Burnstein’s
Ice Cream Lab. Here’s how your school can also
benefit. |
 |
| How Can Doc Burnstein’s Help
You Raise Money? There are two events that can
raise money for your group. |
| School
Night |
Designated evening
when a portion of the total sales for the evening
is donated to your school or group. |
| Create a
Flavor Auction / Contest |
Auction off the
chance to create and name a totally unique flavor
to be served at Doc’s on the school night and
for two weeks after the event. The winning bid gets
to work with Doc to create a flavor, then bring in
their friends for a ice cream party to make the first
batch. If you are not holding an auction for your
group, you may consider having a contest among group
members to create the best new flavor to represent
your group. |
|
|
| Who is Eligible for These Events? |
| Although we would love support all worthy
causes, our accountant says we cannot give away the profits
every night. Therefore, to be eligible for a school night
or auction, a group’s mission must contribute to
the education or development of youth in our community.
Elementary schools and PTAs are commonly hosting these
type of events, but other non-profit groups may also be
eligible. |
|
| How Much Money Can Be Raised? |
| Your group can receive up to 15% of the
sales to your group members on the School Night. The more
your group buys, the more money raised. The “Create
a Flavor” auction item has been a bigticket auction
item, bringing in up to $850. By combining the School Night
with an Auction, and some good promotion, one PTA raised
over $1,000. |
