STEP 1: BUY A MERCHANDISE BOX

This year we are selling complete merchandise boxes that come with everything you need to raise funds for White Balloon Day. The upfront cost of the box is $75 (including postage Australia-wide). If you sell all the products in the box you will raise $150. You can then take out the cost of the box as your reimbursement, or choose to donate the entire amount raised.

Each merchandise box comes complete with:

• Branded display box
• 20 White Balloon Day enamel lapel pins (sell for $5 each)
• 25 White Balloon Day silicone wristbands (sell for $2 each)
• Set of 10 Bravehearts brochures
• White Balloon Day A3 poster  

MERCHANDISE BOXES ARE NOW OUT OF STOCK

STEP 2: SELL YOUR MERCHANDISE

Now you have your merchandise, it’s time to get selling! If you are hosting a White Balloon Day event, you can sell the merch at your event. However, if you are not having an event, but rather just raising awareness or doing your fundraising online, there are still many ways to sell your merchandise. Here are just a few ideas:

• Set up your merchandise box in your staff room at work
• Do you run a customer-facing business or know someone who does? Set up your merch box on the counter
• Ask you kids’ school if you can place your merch box in the school staff room or on the counter in the office
• Are you a member or a club or community group? Take your merch box to their next meeting, training session or meet-up

These are just a few ideas to get you started. Remember, not only are you raising funds to help protect kids, but with each piece of merch you sell, you are raising awareness too! 

STEP 3: DEPOSIT YOUR FUNDS

Once you have sold all your merchandise it’s time to get the funds you raised back to us here at Bravehearts. If you sold merchandise at your event or as part of other fundraising activities, then you can simply add your merchandise box funds to the overall fundraising total along with whatever else you managed to raise. 

If you have registered your event or online fundraising, then you will already have an online fundraising page set up. If so, you can simply deposit your merchandise box funds into your own bank account, then donate this amount to your own online fundraising page. This will then show up on your overall fundraising total on your page, which is great.

If you didn’t register a fundraiser or event and don’t have an online fundraising page, there are two ways to get the funds to us:

1. Deposit the money into your own bank account, then donate this same amount to Bravehearts via our DONATE button on this website (you will need a credit card to do this). If you do it this way, please send us an email and let us know that the donation was from funds raised by the sale of merchandise.
2. You can also make a direct deposit to Bravehearts’ bank account or send us a cheque. To do it this way, please click on the link below for more details.
