It's really simple. It's like a tupperware party but the guests brings broken gold and single earrings. The company donates 15% to the charity of everything they collect. The guest can donate some of the money they get as well. Let me know if you want the company name.
The company is my company and I'm doing gold parties to raise money for my walk as well. It's really simple on how it works. It's kind of like a tupperware party but the guests leave with money instead of spending money, you raise money for your cause and I raise money for my cause as well. Everyone wins. I pay competitive rates to other gold buyers and much better rates than the ones you typically see on TV and so guests really get fair value for their gold. The host of the party makes 10% and I put another 3% towards my fundraising efforts. I can send you more info on how it works if you like, but your email address gave me a bounce back. Let me know if you would like to try one! They have become really popular for my company.
I am in Timmins, Ontario. I'm very interested in this gold party idea, but do you know of anyone in this area that would do it? I assume your company is in the Toronto area.
I don't know of companies doing it in Timmins, but perhaps we could still arrange something for you. The company is in Toronto, however you could have a group gathering to collect gold and express post mail it to me. I will test the items and price them and send you a cheque itemizing for each of your friends. Would that work for you?
I just spoke to my partner. He has a camp up around Sudbury and he and his wife will come to do a party for you if you can get 12-14 people together. Give me a call, I can tell you more on how it works. 1-877-599-6533.
