[quote=Anonymous]Their commission is 48%, I think. But check the commissions on gift wrap, chocolates, pizzas, etc. Boosterthon is not out of the range. The PTA knows the commission of Boosterthon and all the others. The truth is that schools also raise more money with Boosterthon than they do off gift wrap sales. However, Boosterthon does NOT have to have all the pep rallies. And the fundraising prizes can be deferred to a later point, not done in a more public space (pep rally). Our school netted more than $20,000 off one Boosterthon. And that being said, we aren't doing it again. If the school has a huge need for funds, it's really not a bad way to go. You will make more through them than with the polite approach of "Please make a donation to Larla's school." [/quote]
