See you then!

That’s the sound of lost and found bins shrinking across North America!

Hundreds of schools, daycares, sports teams and camps are earning extra dollars toward their initiatives using Mabel’s Labels’ fundraisers.

Next time you’re ready to place a fresh Mabel’s Labels order, ask your kiddos’ group if they’re planning on running a fundraiser. It’s a fabulous, win-win scenario!

Cute as a button!

We at Mabel’s Labels are thrilled to be helping Stacey, a fellow Hamiltonian and self-proclaimed “fundraising freakasaurus” raise funds for Kisses for Kaitlyn.

Stacey is a cousin to a little princess named Kaitlyn who was diagnosed with Leukemia this past fall. Stacey stepped up to the plate immediately with an on-going, integrated fundraising campaign and named it Kisses for Kaitlyn. It creates awareness and reduces financial stress for the family (and what an admirable job she’s doing!)

Her efforts include:

• Awareness bracelets
• Facebook group with 450+ members
• Fundraising events with family and friends
• A tremendous amount of word-of-mouth
• A Mabel’s Labels Paperless fundraiser

It seems that some of the most successful fundraisers are creative, tug at your heart strings and just won’t quit.

We are following your story and blowing kisses to you, Kaitlyn!

We were doing some pondering at Mabel HQ and noticed most people think fundraisers are made for students and their schools. They bring their usual box of chocolate bars to family gatherings, squeeze a few bucks out of their uncles and aunts and that’s that. Easy, right?

There’s a lot of truth to that, but let’s use our imaginations this year and have some fun!

Have you thought about these specialized groups earning commission from Mabel?

• Dance teams, because every ballet slipper looks the same, right?
• Figure skating teams, because every ice skate looks about the same too!
• MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) groups; we have a bundle on board already
• Daycares, no matter how big or small
• After school programs
• A marathon runner going above and beyond for the cause

Or any nonprofit organization under the sun! The team at Mabel’s Labels is dedicated to helping our fundraisers achieve their goals, all while reducing their lost & found.

To learn more and see if our fundraisers are a fit for you, take a peak at our Fundraising Guide.

Over the years we’ve helped thousands of schools and organizations earn money toward their fundraising goals. We offer two types of label fundraisers: traditional brochure-based fundraisers and online paperless fundraisers. Contact us today to get the ball rolling. That is, before the back-to-school rush turns into the first day of school!
