You may be thinking, “Raise Money Right…, that’s old news. It’s been around for a while.” Well, get ready for some new Raise Money Right news. Raise Money Right has a new partner, new materials and new zeal to help you reach your fundraising goals!

People know that how you fundraise says a lot about your group. With the push for green and ethical fundraisers, as well as an increasing need to find additional funding for special projects in your community, CRS Fair Trade has renewed our efforts to help you Raise Money Right.

In response to increasing demand, we’ve added a new partner to Raise Money Right, Equal Exchange. Equal Exchange has an outstanding record offering educational Fair Trade fundraisers to secular groups and has specially designed materials for Catholic communities. Their fundraising toolkit will help you organize your volunteers and prepare them to answer questions about Fair Trade and the cooperatives where your chocolate is sourced from.

So much of the success of Raise Money Right has been from the very popular Divine Chocolate fundraiser offered by SERRV. SERRV has developed a new fundraising flyer and tally sheet for your fundraiser, as well as special pricing on three varieties of Divine Chocolate when you buy a minimum of 5 identical cases.

SERRV and Equal Exchange are fantastic, fully committed Fair Trade organizations and each offers something different, so be sure to check them both out! And remember, now is the perfect time to approach your school administration about holding a Raise Money Right Fair Trade chocolate fundraiser. Many schools make their fundraising decisions a year in advance, so don’t wait to talk to your administration about Raising Money Right!
