Fundraising is the organized process of seeking and gathering voluntary financial contributions or other resources from individuals, businesses, foundations, or government agencies to support a specific cause, project, or organization. It is usually carried out by charities, schools, teams, community, and nonprofits, but can also be used by institutions or businesses that need extra funds for special initiatives. Fundraising can involve many activities such as selling products, hosting events, asking for donations in person or online, running social media or email campaigns, and using tools like crowdfunding platforms. A fundraising team or committee usually plans these efforts, engages potential supporters, and makes sure the money raised is used to achieve the fundraiser goals.

Purdys Seasonal Fundraising makes this process easy by letting your organization raise money through premium chocolates that supporters already love, with up to 30% profit on every purchase. With a simple online platform, Canada wide delivery options, and over 30 years of experience helping organizations raise more than 80 million dollars in profit, Purdys is a trusted partner for your next fundraiser.

A realistic fundraising goal is a specific, measurable am ount of money that your team can reasonably raise within a set time frame, based on your past results, supporter base, and capacity. In practice, that means looking at what you raised before, how many people you can reach, how much they typically give or spend, and how much time and energy your team can commit. A good goal should be ambitious enough to motivate people, but not so high that it feels impossible or discouraging.

Many organizations find it helpful to use SMART goals, so the target is:

• Specific: you know the exact dollar amount and what it will fund
• Measurable: you can clearly track progress
• Achievable: it matches your size, history, and resources
• Relevant: it supports a real need or project
• Time-bound: it has a clear deadline

A simple way to set a realistic goal is to start from your last campaign. For example, if your previous fundraiser brought in $3,000, a realistic working goal might be around $3,500 to $4,000, with a higher “stretch” goal if you expect better promotion, more supporters, or a stronger product. The key is to avoid guessing a nice round number and instead base your goal on real data and a clear plan.

Purdys Seasonal Fundraising makes goal setting more concrete because you know your profit structure upfront. With up to 30% fundraising profit, you can estimate your target by looking at how many supporters you have and what an average chocolate order might be. Combine that with our easy online platform, Canada wide delivery options, and free promotional materials, and you have a clear, achievable path to hitting your fundraising goal. If you need more assistance setting your goal, our fundraising consultants can assist you.

Selling chocolate for fundraising means offering treats people already love and using part of every purchase to support your cause. The key is to treat it like a small, organized campaign instead of casual, one-off sales.

Here is a simple approach that works for most teams:

1. Set a clear goal and timeline
   Decide how much you want to raise, what it will fund, and when your fundraiser starts and ends.
2. Know your audience
   Think about who will buy: school families, coworkers, neighbours, your wider community. with this helps you craft your messaging to match your supports needs.
3. Make it easy to order
   Offer simple online ordering, plus in-person options at events or tables where people already gather. Give clear instructions on how to buy and when orders close.
4. Promote and remind
   Explain what you are raising money for, share the link often, and send a few friendly reminders before the deadline. A clear message like “Support our team and enjoy premium chocolate” works very well.

Purdys Seasonal Fundraising makes all of this easier. Your team can sell premium, Canadian made chocolates through an online platform, earn up to 30% profit plus a bonus, and use free promotional materials and convenient delivery options. With over 30 years of fundraising experience, Purdys gives you a simple way to sell chocolate and reach your goal.
