Fundraising Policy


Fundraising events are an effective method for student organizations to earn income.  Success requires good program selection, excellent timing, careful execution, and dedicated group members.  To host a fundraiser, see the Useful Resources section of this handbook, fill out the Fundraising Application Form and return it to the Director of Student Activities.  All income should be deposited into an RSO account with the Schreiner University Business Office.

Guidelines:

1.   Make sure that your RSO is in good standing with the University.  Any RSO that is under review or on any restrictions because of policy violations will not be allowed to host fundraisers.

2.   Any RSO wanting to host a fundraiser must complete the fundraising approval form.  This form should be turned in to the Director of Student Activities at least two weeks prior to the fundraising event and then submitted to the Vice President of Advancement & Public Affairs with a list of vendors for final approval.

3.   All fundraising events must be approved by the Director of Student Activities.

4.   All income received from a fundraiser must be deposited into the sponsoring organization's Schreiner University account within 72 hours of the event.  Failure to do so may result in disciplinary action.  This includes membership dues.

5.   Income earned may be used to support activities which are in accordance with the purpose of the organization.  Income cannot be used to purchase alcohol.

6.   Organizational activities may not disrupt normal University business.

7.   Organizations may only sponsor commercial enterprises desiring to sell their products on campus with the approval of the Director of Student Activities and Vice President for Enrollment and Student Services.

8.   Organizations may sponsor performing artists and/or events with the approval of the Director of Student Activities.
