FAQs about this fundraiser for participating athletes:

Q • What’s the deadline for this Fundraiser?
A • This Valley Royals Fundraiser ends Thursday, October 1st, 2020
Q • Where do I return my fundraising earnings and unsold books?
A • All unsold books and payments collected need to be returned to Naomi Booth.
Q • Who can I contact if I have questions?
A • Naomi Booth email: [email protected]
Q • Will I earn Fundraising Credits on profits earned for the club?
A • Normally, the club gives fundraising credits to athletes which they can spend on meet entry fees. However, due to Covid, there’s a lack of meets so entry fees are not needed and volunteer hours are harder to get. Instead, just for 2020, athletes can earn 1 VOLUNTEER HOUR for every $20 IN PROFIT they gain for the club in a fundraiser.
Here’s how this would work for Coupon Book Sales:
The club gets $20 profit on the sale of 4 coupon books ($5 profit on each one)
So selling 4 books = 1 volunteer hour
