Are you a pastor or leader of a youth group, raising funds for a youth group trip, camp, or general funds?
You're at the right place. Wit and Bubbles offers a bubbly way for youth groups to raise funds.
What's in the Fundraising Kit?
The Fundraising Kit contains 9 sample soaps and a shampoo bar sample (about 0.5 oz each), an order catalog for each member of the fundraising team, an instructions page with helpful example social media posts, and a unique QR code and link. It will be shipped to you within 48 hours (USA only).
How do I sell?
You'll have 4 weeks to bring your favorite noses to the fundraising kit soaps, and direct them to place orders through your unique link. Set up an event or a table in the lobby, so that people can smell and choose. Youth group members can collect orders and payment (cash & checks) with their catalog or card payments via QR code. Alternately, you could make a fun video describing each soap scent, and share your video and unique link on social media platforms. When your fundraising campaign ends, your link deactivates. Catalog orders are submitted to Wit and Bubbles. Cash and check profits are kept. Online payment profits are sent via check.
Who can shop?
Anyone in the USA can place orders through your link. International shipping is currently unavailable.
How does shipping and distribution work?
Wit and Bubbles fulfills your fundraising orders within 6 weeks. The Catalog Bulk Order is shipped to the youth group point of contact. Order distribution for catalog orders (cash & check) is done by the fundraising team. Online orders are distributed directly by Wit and Bubbles.
What and when do I get paid?
Wit and Bubbles will mail your youth group a check for 50% of the online product sales at the end of your 4 weeks campaign. Wahoo! It's a generous percentage. If a soap is listed for $10, $5 goes to your group. It's a real check, without transfer fees, to be deposited at your convenience. Cash and check sales profits stay with you.
What about sales taxes?
Taxes will be charged directly to the buyer during the sales transaction, and remitted by Wit and Bubbles. This transaction is not tax-deductible since amazing soap is being purchased.
What about other causes? What if I'm not in a youth group?
Wit and Bubbles is offering fundraising for missionaries of the gospel of Jesus Christ and youth groups affiliated with Bible-believing churches. Wit and Bubbles wants to honor and empower individual missionaries who have been called to go, whether that's local missions or all over the globe, as well as helping youth groups raise funds for trips, camps, and general funds. Other causes such as schools, extracurricular activities, sports teams, and nonprofits are included in the general fundraiser.
What if I order the Youth Group Fundraising Kit and I'm not in a qualifying youth group?
You will receive a refund.
What's the connection? Why youth groups?
Wit and Bubbles soaps are joyfully handmade in Buford, GA, by a Jesus-loving scientist mama, who asked Jesus to be the Lord of her life at a youth group camp at age 16. Somebody paid for her camp costs. Now that she's a business owner, she wants to help youth groups cover these costs with an awesome fundraiser. We want to see many many more people give their lives to Jesus at a young age. Our prayer is that the same strategy creating profit for local business owners (wholesale) is useful for raising funds for youth groups and missions, and that King Jesus's provision and joy are highlighted through this small business, for His glory.
