We have a variety of opportunities coming up for Fundraising.  We offer Fundraising Ideas as an option/choice. It is not compulsory for Cheerleaders to participate; please contact Pene directly should you prefer not to have your child/children involved with fundraising ideas.

 Funds raised are allocated to three different areas:

*  General Fundraising – for improvements to the Gym and Facilities;

*  Cheerleaders Fundraising Accounts; these funds are held in a separate account by All Star Venom and can be used for Cheerleading related expenses I e:

• Summer Camp
• Competition Uniform or Cheer Gear
• Competition Fees
• Term Fees
• Holiday Program Fees
• Overseas Travel to Competitions

v  Travel Pool – Please note Cheerleaders are expected to raise funds for their Trip Expenses, funds in the Travel Pool will be used for additional or extra-ordinary costs.

• We are planning on taking our Level 3 team to Australia in June/July 2012 to compete at an All Star Australia Competition.
• We are now also looking at taking an additional team to Australia in November 2012 to compete in an All Star Australasian Competition; this team will be made up of Level 1+ Cheerleaders wishing to travel and further information will be supplied as soon as possible.  If you are interested in this trip please contact Pene.

If you are able to assist in any way with Prizes for upcoming events; Fund Allocation towards Gym Equipment, Sponsorship of a Team, Cheerleader or Required Gear Items for Cheerleaders or towards the General Travel Pool please contact Pene on either 0274 978 692 or 09 527 0603 or email pene@allstarcheerleaders.co.nz. Contributions will be displayed on the Support Board we are wanting to put up in the gym.  Should we receive Sponsorship for a team; we would provide promotion for the provider if they are happy for us to do this.

We are also running a competition within the gym between the various teams.  Each item included within the fundraising will have a point system allocated to it.  Each time an item is sold the Cheerleader will receive the allocated points associated with this item and these points will be noted on the Points Chart under his or her team; for example i.e.:

Sally Joe sells 3 Christmas Trees; funds raised go to general fundraising account but Sally Joe receives 15 points; 5 points per tree sold.  Sally Joe also sells $20 worth of Christmas Cakes and gets 4 points and profit margin on Cakes goes towards her Fundraising Monies total.

Team totals will be updated mid each term and the team at the end of the Term with the most points get a reward (still to be decided). 

Please see Points Chart on the Gym wall for more details.  Please note updated Charts are not on the wall yet, but will be by the end of week four Term One.  Should a Cheerleader change teams during a term; points are transferable to the new team.

Please feel free to contact one of us if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you again for your continued support.

The All Star Venom Fundraising Committee.
