"What is a ‘No Pizza' ?

In order to meet our first "goal" to help make our Commission Project a reality, we need to earn at least $1500 from our Super Bowl Pizza sale. In order to reach that number, we need to sell at least 375 pizzas - or approximately 5 (or more) per family.

There really are two ways you can approach this fundraiser: 1) just sell the pizzas outright, from which we earn (and keep) the profit from each pizza sale; 2) don't sell any pizza - but provide us with the profit we would earn if you DID sell it. That could come in the form of a donation from you, or if the person you are selling the pizza to doesn't need or want it - but would like to support our Commission Project - you could accept a "No Pizza" sale which would be $4 from them - the amount we would have made had you actually sold the pizza.

I often do this with students who ask me to purchase fundraising products they're selling that I either can't use, won't use, or if I eat will make me . . . . instantly bigger than I need to be. So I will give them, in the form of a donation, the profit they WOULD have made had I purchased their product. Consequently, I'm happy I could help them achieve their goal, and it cost me less money than buying something I don't need. It doesn't affect them at all. They are doing their part by bringing in revenue.

Please don't misinterpret this: the pizzas we're selling are excellent quality, they're FRESH, and they will for sure be a tasty way to munch your way through Super Bowl Sunday (or you can even freeze them for later.)

But if you just can't get out to sell them, if your relatives pull the blinds down when you knock on their door, or they let the answering machine pick up when they know it's you calling - we would really appreciate it if you could consider selling 5 (or more) "No Pizzas" @ $4 each.

Thank you for your continued support! The Commission Project will have its WORLD PREMIERE with EACH BAND PARTICIPATING on Friday, June 4th at our annual "Seniors Concert."
