Fundraise with Milk Jar
#goals
Milk Jar is excited to offer fundraising for individuals or groups like teams, schools, and non-profits to raise money through the sale of our products.
We are listed as a vendor on Shop My Fundraiser, a user-friendly online platform (no need to go door-to-door!) that allows monetary funds to be raised to achieve a set goal. Fundraisers typically last a couple of weeks and earn a 25% commission on every Milk Jar product sold.
We look forward to helping you achieve your fundraising goals!

Here's what folks had to say
"We had the pleasure of working with Milk Jar to fundraise for our scout group. Everyone loves candles and we loved supporting local, while bringing some money into our organization. The process to get set up was easy, in addition to regular communication and reports throughout our campaign. We can't wait to do it again!"
- Polish Girl and Boy Scouts Calgary
"I had the absolute pleasure of working with Rae and Milk Jar on a candle fundraiser for a project I volunteer with. The process was so smooth and Rae clearly communicated everything I needed to know. The online system for the fundraiser purchasing was easy and efficient. My friends and family were thrilled to be purchasing wonderful Milk Jar products to support - such a nice contrast to the usual chocolates, pizzas and other food product fundraisers often seen. And for about a third of proceeds going to the fundraiser made such a significant impact to our fundraising efforts! Once the purchasing period wrapped up the candles and diffusers were promptly dropped off to me, and Rae kindly offered recommendations on how they could be organized and packaged for purchasers. The purchasing/purchaser details were also very clear and organized. I can’t say enough positive things about fundraising with MilkJar and I’m already planning our next one for later this year! If you’ve been considering fundraising with Milk Jar I highly recommend you do."

"Our school community loved the MilkJar fundraiser. The products purchased were high quality and the communication and support from the MilkJar team was amazing. They made the fundraiser so easy to facilitate, they were organized and provided suggestions for how to make it even easier on the school's end. We will definitely do another MilkJar fundraiser again!"
-Banff Trail School Council
"Our fundraising event exceeded our expectations, thanks in no small part to Milk Jar. The positive feedback we received about their candles was overwhelming, and we're looking forward to future collaborations with Milk Jar. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Milk Jar for making our fundraising experience a resounding success. For anyone seeking a fundraising partner with top-quality products and unwavering support, we wholeheartedly recommend Milk Jar."
