Product Sales & Company Partnerships

Some market centers have had success raising funds through product sales. A few examples are:

​

The Perimeter East market center has used the site CustomInk.com to design and sell t-shirts at no cost to them. A portion of the proceeds can be donated to Kares 4 Kids.

​

Note Cards*

​

Agents love to write thank you notes! The South Forsyth market center designed and sold note cards with the proceeds benefitting Kares 4 Kids.
