Cindy Wood – Portola, CA
Fund raiser for Soroptimists International
“Glimmers has put the “fun” back into fundraising for our club. It’s been so easy! You wear what you want to sell; then people naturally walk up to you and compliment the quality of the pin and ask “Where did you get this great pin?” Many of us keep pins in our purses to keep that “point of sale” happening. Storing stock is easy, as these are small enough items to not take up a lot of storage space. The selection on the types of pins is great and helps to meet the different seasonal opportunities for fundraising. The staff is professional and eager to please, shipping has been phenomenal…even for last minute orders. We even “tweeked” a few pieces to add on our Soroptimist International Logo, to take to conferences and training weekends to sell. I would recommend Glimmers as a great fundraising opportunity to any type of project, club or event…they practically sell themselves!
Jan Carter - Norfolk, VA Fund raiser for the Children’s Hospital of the Kings Daughters)
"I still can't get over the frenzy these stars created. I mean it was phenomenal! We sold over 1600 pins in two months and made $8,000. Over the past few years, we've raised over $25,000 selling various designs by Glimmers. And we've had a great time doing it. It was like having our very own product line! People were so impressed and of course everyone wants to support our wonderful hospital.”
Anne White – Wenatchee, Washington
(Fund raiser for the Festival of Trees)
“As a new Festival of Trees group, we were looking for ideas. I was to be responsible for setting up a store. I had no budget but lots of enthusiasm. I was on a mission to find out what was selling in other FOT Stores.
Flashing stars kept cropping up in conversations. They were pretty. They were popular. They sell. You can make some serious money for your non-profit.
That is how Jill Flynn found me on her doorstep. Jill is fun, energetic on the phone, gets down to business, and believes in helping non-profits. Jill let me order some samples. I loved the gold clip-on stars and ordered the smallest amount out of my own pocket.
Then I did as I was told.
WEAR IT!
TURN IT ON!
CARRY PINS IN YOUR CAR.
SELL THEM ON THE SPOT!
I was in the clip-on flashing star business. I wore a flashing star everywhere: to meetings, to church, to the movies, out to dinner. The FOT Board caught the spirit and bought them for their children, wives, office staff, mothers-in-laws. My first order quickly sold out and I ordered again twice as many, using the proceeds from the first order. Suddenly we were making serious money and having a great time doing it.”
Then they used the stars for their gala. Anne goes on to say: “The Gala was a huge success! When you walked into the dim room with those 300 stars glimmering and people took them off and put them in their hair - on the pockets of dark suits - you know it was just enchanting. You have a star - a star in your crown.”
Dianne Keane with her son Tim – Detroit Michigan (Fundraiser for STARS - Seeking Techniques Advancing Research in Shunts. Dianne’s son, Tim, has survived over 95 brain operations. He’s an inspiration, as is his Mom!
“The star pins are a truly terrific fundraiser! All you need to do is wear a star and people will want to know where they can get one. It’s that easy. I always keep a couple of pins in my purse as well as an entire box in the car. You should see how well they sell around Christmas and the 4th of July. You can even partner with local stores to sell them on your behalf. Diane has sold 2,850 glimmering gold star pins to help raise over $15,000 for STARS.
Hildie Jones – San Mateo, CA
Fund raiser for 5th grade class at Donaldson Way School,
in American Canyon, CA.
“Your 9” star turned out to be THE perfect fundraiser for our 5th grade class. Each student needed $235.00 to go away for a week of Outdoor Education at the beautiful Walker Creek Ranch in Santa Rosa, CA. (walker-creekranch.org). The stars (both gold and silver!) were an instant hit with students and parents alike. Once everyone figured out the many ways they could use them indoors as well as out, they bought them in multiples. The nifty packaging was an added plus. One student sponsored the entire cost of her trip by selling 30 stars. We’re so happy we found you!“
