Fundraising

 

New to 2009, the U.S. Olympic Collection is offering an unprecedented fundraising component – BEIJING EDITION U.S. OLYMPIC TEAM RINGS - in conjunction with Post No Bills Inc., a licensee of the United States Olympic Committee (USOC).

This fundraiser can benefit the bright athletes of tomorrow and YOUR ORGANIZATION. These U.S. Olympic Team Ring Bracelets were worn proudly by many of the U.S. Olympic athletes in Beijing. Several youth organizations have already used the TEAM RINGS as a fundraising component. For example, Sharp’s Gymnastics sold over 3,000 Team Ring Bracelets in under one month raising over $6,000 for their organization. Sande Huber, (booster club organizer), said “The rings sold themselves! Knowing that we were able to help the Sloan family send Bridget as an alternate to the Beijing games, help the U.S. Olympic Gymnastics Team and our own booster club was a great feeling.” 
This fundraiser has been extremely successful and it is really simple. Here are the simple steps to getting started:
  1. Promote the Beijing Edition U.S. Olympic Team Ring bracelets to friends, family and supporters for $4.95 (each).
  2. Collect a total of $4.95 per bracelet at the time of order.
  3. Turn the total funds into your organization.
  4. Fill out the final Post No Bills order form for your organization.
  5. Send in ONLY $2.95 per bracelet ordered with your completed order form to Post No Bills, Inc.
  6. Keep the $2.00 earnings per sale. Your profits are immediate! We will donate $1.00 directly to the USOC on your behalf. The remaining $2.00 is yours!
  Enclosed in the introductory fundraising package:
