The perfect risk-free way to raise money with no financial investment. Send buyers to the online ordering system. Sell from your own home or however you choose. You receive one lump payment when the selling period is over.
The more traditional way of selling; using order forms, collecting money, and then submitting your complete orders to Uncle Eddie's.
Buy cookies ahead of time and go sell them with product in hand.
Your organization sells the cookies risk-free by simply spreading the word! You can sell from the comfort of your own home via social media, email, text, phone, etc. You may also handout flyer’s, door hangers and many other sales tools included for you to use to spread the word. The seller simply supplies their SELLER ID to any potential buyers and directs them to cookies4causes.net. After sales are complete, one consolidated, final payment, will be sent to your organization for all of your earnings.
A set selling period must be implemented for fulfillment and processing reasons. This cannot be something that is sold year round, although you could run many campaigns a year. Each campaign or selling period does need to be approved by Cookies for Causes before you start due to production scheduling.

Your organization must not have a SPONSOR and it must be a registered Nonprofit 501(c)(3).
Pros: Easier to sell, no shipping, no deliveries, easier process, less bookkeeping, and less time consuming.
Cons: Online ordering through cookies4causes.com is not an option, you must sell in person or through your organizations own shopping cart. You must have a way to store the cookies. They only have a 14 day shelf life, thus they need to stay frozen or be sold within 14 days.
