End Date of your Fundraiser
Your Contact Info or Information on how people can Order.	
How will people Order?		If you are going to be available in person, you can collect Pre-Paid orders in person, and use the Pre-Pay sheet to write down their contact info and how much they paid. We do not allow people to pay later as the Fundraising person should not be worrying about leftover unpaid games. All games are paid up-front.

If you have a location where people can drop payment into when you are not physically present, using Flyers is a good option so they can fill that in along with their payment. Have envelopes available in case someone is ready right away.

Depending on which method you use, please let people know When, where, and the Cost in the announcements. 	
Announcements 2-4
Runs	7-10		
Update Master Order Sheet		If you are collecting Orders directly, always keep the Master Pre-Paid sheet updated as you collect payment so that you do not forget what happened later.

If multiple people are handling pre-paid orders at different times, mark when each person starts and ends along with the total order count and $ collected during their time. It will reduce mix-ups.

If you are collecting via Flyers in a drop off location, schedule a regular time to gather them up and update the Master sheet so nothing gets lost. 	
Take Photo of Master Order Sheet		Most people have phones so once you have updated the master Paid sheet, take a photo just in case that paper is ever lost, you will still be able to continue.

If you lose both, you can count up the total $ to determine how many games to order but it is not as clear who to give each copy to. You could announce a pick-up time and let people come to tell you what they ordered, but if you are short or have too many you won;t know why.

So we highly recommend taking back up photos. It is easy.

Submit the entire group Order on BibleBoardGames.com	32	Submit Order According to Master Sheet and total $ Collected
●	Submit all your orders together on the same date so that we keep shipping costs within reason to continue fundraisers.
●	Make sure you get your church discount code before ordering so that you can get your fundraising savings right away.
●	If you are tax exempt, before checkout, make sure you create an Account on BibleBoardGames.com. And fill in the Tax Exempt section on the Account page (available from the main menu.) 	
Total Raised for your Group	32	Total Funds Raised for your Group should be $10 x the total copies ordered. (Plus if anyone gave a donation without buying a game)	
Fulfillment or order back to you	45	Typical orders will take 7-14 days. In order to help maximize fundraising $$ with you, we need to choose inexpensive but sometimes longer shipping methods. If you need the games to arrive by a certain date, please count back at least 2 weeks when placing your orders.	
You Give each person the game they ordered.	52	Once the fulfilled order has arrived, you can arrange a date for people to pick up their copies. This can be a fun day for everyone waiting for their game!

We highly suggest tagging each game with a sticky note of the person’s name, personally giving each game to each person, and marking it received on your master order sheet. This will help reduce mistakes, loss, and confusion..

We don’t want you to get all the way to the end and have someone missing their copy.	
Late Orders	52+	If you came up short by mistake or someone missed the deadline, you can order more. It happens sometimes. You have a couple of options.

1. Handle the order the same way as before and arrange to have the person pick-up the game when it arrives. This will increase your time when some fundraisers are ready to wrap things up.

2. Just send them to BibleBoardGames.com and they can order the game separately for themselves. Neither you nor us will gain $ from it due to the higher cost of shipping a single game, but at least they don’t feel left out.     	
Ending Prayer	60	Dear Jesus, as we close this fundraiser, whether we reach a few people or many, we pray we will continue to remember the Joy of the Holy Spirit and keep our hearts focused on you. 	
Evaluation	60	Every Fundraiser takes work and can tire us out for a while. After some time has passed, pray about the benefits for those who received the Games and the Fundraising. See if it went well or you can improve what you did last time.	
Next season		Check to see if we have a new game offering and try again!	
Bible-board game nights	Option	After your fundraiser is over, there will be people who want to play Bible board games but may not have anyone to play with, and it is fun.

Host a Bible board game night at home or in a larger group setting.
See Bibleboardgames.com for ideas.
