2024 GARDNER’S CANDY SALE
Purpose
To give local units a spring fundraiser to help scouts earn their way to summer camp. The local unit uses most of the commission to benefit the Scout. A benefit of the Gardner’s Candies sales is that there is no money up front and NO RISK to the local unit. The Spring Product sale is a very important part of the Council Fair Share Plan that was introduced. This sale will help your unit and Council become fiscally sustainable.
Cost
The unit only orders what it needs; individual container orders only, no full case orders. The unit should collect the money upfront and then pay for their order at the time the order is due.
Type of Sale
Take order: Scouts take orders on their sheet and turn it in to the local unit. The Council provides the order forms. Order forms can be downloaded below or at the Council Service Center. Scouts collect the money up front and submit the money with their order.
Commission
The unit commission is 30%. The local council also makes a modest amount of money that will be designated to provide quality Scouting programs. While this commission is smaller for both the Unit and the Council, we are also supporting a local business through this fundraiser.
