How to Sign-Up for Fundraisers

A lot of teens have asked, "how do I sign-up for a donut fundraiser?"


Here's the answer.



The week before a fundraiser, a scheduled blog post will show up on the blog at a specific scheduled time.


When it does, it is first come, first serve. You txt or call Deepa on my cell phone (678-350-3548).  Deepa will reply to your msg with either a YES (and further information) or NO (and reason).  


You cannot Facebook message me to sign-up for a service project hours spot or fundraiser spot.  It must be done per person through my cell phone.  This is the only fair way to do it.


As spots fill up, I will update on Twitter and FB.


There are only a certain # of service project hours teen spots available.  If you do not RSVP, you cannot work the fundraiser for service project hours.  We simply cannot have 30 teens working the fundraiser; there will be nothing for you to do.


There are only a certain # of fundraiser teen spots available.  The money fundraised through the Coffee/Donuts monthly fundraisers may be used for the following Life Teen trips/events:


  • Life Teen retreats (Confirmation retreat, Girls retreat, Guys retreat, Spring Retreat)
  • Steubenville Atlanta
  • Mission Trip -- deposit only
    • if you are a 2012 Life Teen missionary (CHWC), all of your Mission Trip fundraisers will pay for your mission trip, sans your $100 deposit.  Please do not sign-up for the Coffee/Donuts if you've paid your deposit.
  • Corn Maize
  • Camping Trip/Rafting
  • Lock-In
  • Nun Run
  • CLI deposit (for M&M's only)
You cannot use fundraiser money to purchase Life Teen items for sale (merchandise or food). The money you raise at a fundraiser goes into a Life Teen account for you.  It expires at the end of Life Teen year - August 1st through July 31st.  If you do not use your fundraiser money, you lose it.  You may also fundraise for other teens.  If you would like to know how much you have in your fundraiser account, you may contact Deepa in the Life Teen office.
