How do I get started?
Contact Zach at fundraising@fraservalleymeats.com
and we will answer all your questions, set you up and give you everything you need in
order to get started. As our full-time Fundraising Coordinator, Zach is available to assist
you throughout the fundraising process.
What is the first thing I do once I have received the fundraising kit?
The first thing to take care of is to arrange a date, time and place with the FVM representative
for the truck to deliver the product so we have ample time to arrange a truck. In a week's time,
after the master order form is received by the fundraising rep, the truck will be ready to drop
off the product at a prior arranged spot by the fundraising coordinator.
Once the order form and brochure have been emailed to you, the fundraising coordinator, print
as many copies as you need for each person in your team. Then start selling, either by phone or
door to door. Get your customers to place their orders on the order form provided and use the
brochure as a selling guide. Print many copies in case your customers would like to keep a
copy and get back to you.
Once I am finished selling what do I do?
Once your order forms are full and your selling is complete, submit your order forms to your
fundraising coordinator and he / she will tally up the amounts of each product sold and record
it on the master order form (which is then submitted to the Fraser Valley Meats representative.)
What to expect on the day of the produce drop off?
Please have a cheque ready for the truck driver at the time of the drop off. Be there to supervise
the unloading of the truck and distribute the marked box's to each member of the fundraising team.
Have a plan to store or distribute the boxes soon after delivery, as your orders may take up a
significant amount of room and are perishable.
Do I or my customers pay taxes on the meat?
No, there are no taxes on food products.
How do we pay for our product?
We will accept a cheque at delivery or mailed with the master order form, or Visa / MasterCard
will work before delivery.
How do we care for the meat once it is in our possession?
Try to deliver the meat as soon as possible and don't allow to thaw. This is especially important
for the "individually frozen" products.
