FUNDRAISING PROGRAM
A no–cost, risk free way to raise money for pet shelters‚ animal rescue groups or other non–profit organization, including schools‚ church groups & other organizations.
Welcome to the cedar oil industries community Fundraising Program!
In these challenging economic times‚ churches, pet shelters‚ animal rescues‚ national charities and other
non–profit organizations are having a difficult time raising revenue to support their basic operations.
Product sales through fund raising events are an option to reach a larger base of support‚ but many non–
profit organizations are finding it harder & harder to make money by selling the traditional fundraising
items such as magazine subscriptions‚ cookies, coupon books, candles‚ and other goods many consumers
really don’t want or need. This is particularly true for pet related causes.
The Pet industry is one of the fastest growing consumer market segments‚ which means that fundraising all natural insect control products to pet owners could not have come at a better time in history. As pet owners are becoming more aware of the health and environmental issues associated with the use of chemicals on their pets, in their lawns and homes, the organic insect control industry for pets, people, lawns, gardens, kennels and indoors will generate ongoing sells for organizations future projects.
Pets come in all shapes and sizes, but the one constant is the bond between pets and their owners. In fact, 76% of dog or cat owners consider their 4-legged companions to be part of the family. This closeness creates fundraising opportunities that go far beyond the traditional fundraising tools, products or services in the past. According to Mintel, the pet industry is expected to maintain a steady pace of growth, increasing by 33% over the next five years.
Americans really love their pets. According to a national survey, 63% of pet owners say “I love you” at least once a day to their pets and 83% refer to themselves as their pet’s mom and dad. Plus, check out these numbers!
