BOBA WITH BENEFITS.

FUNDRAISER FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


How does my organization earn money from this program?
20% of all pre-tax sales brought in by your fundraiser will be donated directly to your organization. Your fundraiser must generate a minimum of $150 in net sales in order for a donation to be made. Pre-tax sales from a Viva La Boba Fundraiser may only be applied with orders placed on the day and time it was booked. Merchandise sales and gift card purchases are not included.

When will my organization receive the donation?
Two days after your event, we will send you an email with information regarding how much money your organization earned.

A check will be issued to your organization within 2 weeks of your event. If it has been more than 2 weeks since your event and you still have not received a check, please contact us at hello@vivalaboba.com

OK, I want to throw a Viva La Boba Fundraiser. How do I apply?
Applying is easy. The first step is finding out what kind of non-profit organization you are, as this will determine how you apply. 501(c)3 organizations are recognized by the government as tax exempt under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code so they will not be taxed for any donations earned. Please note, there are many types of non-profit organizations that do not have this status. You can confirm your organization’s status on the IRS website: https://apps.irs.gov/app/eos/

How do I apply for my 501(c)3 organization?

Email a valid 501(c)3 Tax I.D. number and your proposed date to hello@vivalaboba.com. Please note, all fundraisers for 501(c)3 organizations must be scheduled at least 10 days in advance.


How do I apply for my non-501(c)3 organization?

Email your organization’s Tax I.D number, a completed W9, the organization you are fundraising for and proposed date to hello@vivalaboba.com. Applications must be submitted at least 14 days in advance.


I’ve been approved! What happens now?
Once approved, we'll send you an email confirmation for your event along with a Viva La Boba Fundraiser flyer & social media post for you to distribute. Please email a PNG file of your logo if you want us to include it on the flyer. You're also welcome to create your own flyer, but we ask that you include the Viva La Boba logo.

How do I make my event a success?

After you’ve scheduled your Viva La Boba fundraiser, maximize your event’s exposure to ensure a big turnout and  donation:
