Below are some frequently asked questions about fundraising with Home and Garden Party candle fundraisers. If you do not see your question below feel free to contact me via email or Call Us Today at 1-888-209-0613. 

  • Does the group pay for the fundraiser brochures? 

No, the group does not pay for brochures. The full color brochures are provided free of cost to the group and are paid for by the Independent Fundraising Specialist. You will need to fax or mail in the fundraiser agreement form prior to being sent brochures for your group. On the form, it will ask for a number of participants. The Independent Designer will use this number to determine how many brochures are sent. Your group will be sent one form for each participant and a few extras.  

  • How far in advance do we need to give notice of wanting to do a fundraiser? 

Your Independent Fundraising specialist can help you to get your fundraiser started in just 2-3 days!  For groups larger than 500 participants it is recommended to allow two weeks for receiving your brochures. If you need to start sooner please contact me by phone as soon as possible.

  • Does the group pay for shipping?                                                                                                     

No. Shipping of fundraiser orders is covered by Home and Garden Party, Ltd and not the group holding the fundraiser. 

  • Once the candle order is placed how quickly will we receive our shipment?

While this varies, we normally ship orders in less than two weeks via Fed Ex.  Therefore, you should have your order in less than three weeks after your order is placed.

  • Are the fundraisers for groups in the U.S. only? 

Yes. At this time, Home and Garden Party Ltd. does not ship outside the continental United States. 

  • How do we submit the order once we have collected them? 

Once you have received all of the forms from your group, a member of your group will need to tally the order forms and fill out the master order sheet (sent with your brochures) and specify how many candles of each scent are needed. You would then submit the master order sheet, along with payment, by fax or mail to your Independent Fundraising Specialist.  

  • How do we pay for the order? 

When you submit your master order form, it MUST be accompanied by your group's payment for the order. Preferred payment by business or school check, cashier's check or money order payable to Deb Goodridge. Credit Cards will be accepted but do required a signed Credit Card Authorization be received by postal mail.  Please be advised that checks must clear before the order can be placed. Personal checks are not accepted. 

 

PlEASE NOTE: All checks and money orders MUST BE MADE PAYABLE TO DEB GOODRIDGE  INDEPENDENT DESIGNER and NOT to Home and Garden Party, Ltd.

  • What if our group is tax exempt? 

We will require an Exemption Certificate from your state. Please refer to the exemption requirements in your state by clicking on this link: Tax Exemption.   If you need further assistance please be sure to call me.   

  • If our organization is not tax exempt how much do we pay?

Once your fundraiser is complete please contact me for the amount of tax due.  Tax is based on the published retail prices of the items as listed on the Agreement Form.  As an Ind. Representative for Home & Garden Party I am personally contributing towards your fundraiser by offering a discount on the price charged for your fundraising products.  When the order is submitted to Home & Garden Party tax will be charged on the regular retail prices.  The percentage of tax is based on the tax rate of the actual shipping address location. Please note that is some locations tax percentages can vary depending upon whether or not your shipping address is inside or outside city limits as well as the County your address is located. 

  • Our group wants to do a fundraiser.   How do we get started? 

To receive your brochures please fax or mail the Agreement Form either mailed in your information packet or click on this link to print one:  Agreement Form.   You can call 1-888-209-0613 for more information or to request the Fundraiser agreement form be sent to you via fax. Please fax your Agreement Form to: 270-913-3696. Upon receiving the agreement form, I will contact you to  review our program and answer any questions you may have.
