How
soon can we start our fundraiser?
Your fundraising can begin shortly after you
order your fundraising packets. Once you register
your fundraiser with us and let us know how many
participant packets you need, we will prepare
your shipment and ship your packets as quickly as
2 business days.
When
can we expect to receive our fundraising kit?
Your fundraising kit will arrive several days
before your fundraiser is scheduled to begin. We
will ship your kit via FedEx to arrive about a
week prior to your fundraiser start date.
Are
we required to make a deposit on the catalogs?
No, we do not require a fundraising deposit on
materials for schools.
Are
there any hidden costs?
There are no "hidden" costs.
We do have penalties which apply for canceling
your fundraiser, working with a local consultant,
or assigning some or all of your sales to a
Tupperware sales force member after we have
already shipped your materials. See the
fundraising contract for specific details about
these fees.
Do
you have products we can use for display?
We will be happy to provide a sampling of
products from our fundraising line for display
during your fundrainsing event. When your
organization sells $5,000 or more in Tupperware,
the display products are yours to keep.
Otherwise, the product display must be returned
to us at the close of your fundraising event.
There is a $100 deposit on our displays which
will be refunded to you when the display is
returned to us in reusable condition (no cracked
or broken pieces, etc.). Please let your
fundraising manager know you'd like to order a
display and she will make sure one is shipped
with your fundraising kit. Or complete the third
page of our online registration form where you
can request the display.
If you prefer, you can purchase products for
display at wholesale cost. Speak with your
fundraising manager for assistance.
Can
I register by mail or phone instead of online?
Because of the amount of information we need from
your school, we do not take registrations by
phone. Please request a
fundraising contract from us by email which you can
complete and fax or mail back to us. (See fax
number at question no.7 and mailing address at
question no.13.)
Where
do I fax my contract?
Please fax your contract to 1-407-386-6284.
How
long should our fundraiser last?
We recommend about 18 days -- including 3 full
weekends -- in order to maximize your profit
earnings as well as ensure continued motivation
by your students. Longer than 18 days usually
does not benefit the school as your students will
lose interest in fundraising. Less than the
recommended time frame is not ample time to
collect orders.
Do
we have to collect sales tax on our orders?
Most schools are tax exempt and, therefore, are
not required to collect sales tax on fundraising
orders. If you are tax exempt, please fax a copy
of your tax exemption certificate to us before
the close of your fundraising event. (see fax
number at question no. 7)
Is
there a minimum amount for fundraising orders or
number of participants allowed?
No, we do not have a minimum order amount,
minimum number of participants, or a minimum
number of catalogs.
Can
we do a Tupperware fundraiser if we are outside
of the USA?
We do offer fundraising to other countries
outside of the USA as well as US territories and
FPO's. Please email us to see if we serve your
region.
Who
do we call with questions during our fundraiser?
Please contact the fundraising manager assigned
to your account for answers to any questions you
may have. If you do not have her number, please
call 1-800-903-0933 for assistance.
Where
do we send orders?
Send orders and payment to:
Tupperware
Fundraiser Order Processing
P.O. Box 30923
Cleveland, Ohio 44130
How
long does it take for our products to arrive?
Please allow 3-4 weeks for your products to
arrive once you have submitted your orders.
Delivery is normally much sooner.
How
will the orders be shipped?
Orders are shipped via FedEx Ground already presorted
by classroom or grade for an easier
distribution process. Products are easily
identified as each item is labeled, and same
items are boxed together. You will also receive
plastic bags in 2 sizes for packing. Your
fundraising manager will recommend the best way
to submit your orders to ensure an efficient
distribution process for your school.
Can
orders ship directly to the customer?
We offer our Home Delivery Option
which will allow you to ship your orders directly
to your sellers' homes. There is a
shipping fee of $1 added to each customer order
with a minimum charge of $6 per shipping
destination. Students who sell $400 or more
receive FREE home delivery! Speak with your
fundraising manager for more details or email us to
discuss this option.
When
will we receive our check?
Our fundraising program offers payout of proceeds
upfront. This means you collect your profit at
the close of your fundraising event and send us
the balance with your orders.
How
do we calculate our profit?
To calculate your profit, tally your product cost
before tax has been added. Multiply that amount
by .4, or 40%. This is your profit. Mail us a
check for the balance along with your orders.
How
do we pay for our orders?
You can pay with an official bank check or a
postal money order. You may also choose to pay
with a school check but this may delay your order
processing by about a week. We may be able to
contact your school's banking institution to
check on availability of funds in order to
expedite shipping on your orders when you pay
with a school check. This information is released
at the discretion of your banking institution.
Can
I use a local consultant for our fundraiser?
Yes, however, a local consultant's fundraising
experience may be limited. If you use a local
consultant, you must request your fundraising
packets from him/her directly. All fundraising
support will come from the local consultant as
well.
Please note if your packets have already shipped
from our fundraising center, you may incur a
penalty should you choose to involve a local
consultant with your fundraising event. Check
your fundraising agreement for the local
consultant disclaimer.
Do
you offer incentives?
We do offer incentives for your students. When
your school sells $5000 or more in Tupperware, we
will award a top seller prize to the top 3
sellers in your school and also to the top seller
in each grade. Prizes awarded depend on
availability at the time of your fundraising
event. Check with your fundraising manager for
details.
