Did you know Restaurant.com Gift Cards can be used as a fundraiser? Seriously, I had never thought of this idea before I heard about it, but I love it! Restaurant.com offers its Gift Cards at special bulk rates for fundraising groups, enabling them to purchase the cards for less than face value in order to raise money for their organization. The fundraising packages allow up to a 75% profit margin for participating organizations! Think kids sports teams, religious organizations, charities, local shelters, pet services, schools, senior centers and more!
Restaurant.com Gift Cards are a terrific alternative to typical fundraising tools, like perishable food items, because they have broad appeal – everyone loves to eat and there are thousands of restaurants! Plus, Restaurant.com Gift Cards never expire, can be ordered in different denominations ($10, $25, $50, $100) and come as physical gift cards or as electronic codes that can be emailed.
Restaurant.com Gift Cards also are a great option due to the limited storage space required (no storing large boxes of cookies or candy!). Restaurant.com will work with organizations that don’t want to pay a large up-front cost by providing a pre-order sell sheet, which allows fundraisers to determine exactly how many cards they will sell prior to placing an order. That’s a HUGE advantage as I’ve had to purchase large quantities of other products (candy, raffle tickets, gift cards, etc) for my block party and it has to come out of our available funds until we make that money back. It’s a huge inconvenience! The Restaurant.com option is an incredible option when you just don’t have those funds to front!
If you have a function coming up this year, be sure to consider Restaurant.com Gift Cards as an option! It’s a great one for so many reasons!
