Fun, Effective Fundraising

Eagle Scouts Fundraising

Eagle Scouts nationwide use our ‘Guaranteed to Succeed Fundraiser’ each year to finance the activities of their Eagle Scout troops.

  • Traditional Program:

    Using the Traditional Fundraising Program, the eagle scouts and their families take orders from local friends and family members and then deliver the products to their customers.

  • Online Program at www.GiftItForward.com:

    With this Online Fundraising Program, eagle scouts and their parents can outreach nationally to their friends and relatives. These products are shipped directly to the gift recipients from Mickman Brothers.

Fundraising Profits
100% of the profits you earn stay within your local Eagle Scout Group! And, you choose the price you want to charge for each product. We recommend a mark-up of from $6 – $10+ per item so you can choose the prices you feel will work best in your community for your local Eagle Scout group.

PRE-SELLING AND HOW IT WORKS

Utilizing the two programs together – The Traditional Program and GiftItForward.com Online Program – will enable you to eliminate any risk to your Eagle Scout Unit. Your payment is not due for your Traditional Program Products until the conclusion of your Fundraiser and you don’t handle any money while using the online fundraiser!

EASE OF SALE FOR EAGLE SCOUT TROOPS

Our Holiday Evergreens are easy to sell. Period. Your scouts will be offering a high value product (no middle-man) of a product that nearly every homeowner in the country would like to have on their front door to help welcome home friends and family for the Holidays. Almost everyone purchases a wreath for the holidays anyway, why not have them support your Eagle Scout group while they are at it?

Reforestation Efforts
When you choose Mickman for your Eagle Scout Christmas Wreath Fundraiser, not only are you choosing a fundraiser that will “maximize your earnings while minimizing your effort” – you are also supporting a program to assist in reforesting our country!

PATENTED PACKAGING FOR YOUR EAGLE SCOUT GROUP

We strive to make every product we hand-craft as fresh and beautiful as possible and arrive in the condition we both expect. The mantra we stress to all of our employees is that each wreath they make is one they would be proud to display on their mother’s front door. To ensure that each wreath we make arrives just as full and fluffy as when we made it, we designed and patented a custom carton in which to store and transport your wreaths. See Patented Packaging

CUSTOM EAGLE SCOUT FUNDRAISING SALES AIDS

‘A picture is worth a thousand words.’ When your members are offering our Holiday Evergreen Products to their customers, they are using our FREE, high quality Sales Aids to assist them in making the sale, featuring Eagle Scouts just like your group. We feel our Sales Aids and other brochures are the best in the industry, and can be delivered digitally or physically!

CONSERVATION EFFORTS

Important to Eagle Scouts and Mickman Brothers
When we harvest Balsam Boughs, we choose only the newest growth from each tree and only clip off the ends of the branches. This allows the branch to regenerate new growth off of which we can harvest in 4 – 5 years. These Sustainable Harvesting techniques ensure that the forests from which the boughs are harvested remain healthy for generations to come.

Years ago, we also recognized that these forests provided our company and customers with a valuable resource. In 2007 John & Chris Mickman made a commitment to fund the planting of an evergreen tree for each Holiday Gift Product we sold. To date, Mickman Brothers has funded the planting of over 800,000 tree seedlings in 49 States.

ONE OF OUR SUCCESSFUL SCOUT FUNDRAISING GROUPS

Clipboard_04-24-2024_01.jpg“It is September 1, 2013 and the high today in Phoenix is forecast to be 105 degrees, not exactly the type of weather that evokes Christmas. But members of Scout Troop 379 – and our repeat customers – are already asking when we will begin taking orders for Christmas wreaths and decorations. Most Arizona residents either migrated here or have family ties to colder parts of the country. Having a Mickman Brothers wreath or centerpiece in the house for the holidays evokes childhood memories.

We aren’t just selling wreaths, we’re selling nostalgia and tradition.

Over the past several years, our Scouts have earned more than $15,000 to help defray the costs of summer camp in places like Seattle, Connecticut and California; high-adventure trips to hike the Grand Canyon and canoe the Colorado River; and cover the costs of Troop dues and other related expenses. This is one of the simplest and most successful fundraisers available. Troop 379 and Arizona love Mickman Brothers!”— BOY SCOUT TROOP 379

Last October our Homer High School Mariner Co-Op Hockey team hit the ground running. Our hockey season is short, yet aggressive. We pack as many games as we can for the 4 months we get.

Our troop has been raising money for a large trip. This fundraiser is great because people like to buy something they can use.

We had less girls in the troop selling but still raised the same as last …
