SLP&E is a new company with lots of diverse products and event coordination options in its horizon! Our first product that we're very excited about is providing custom high quality Re-Usable Shopping bags for retailers, destinations, events, and fundraisers for schools and Non Profit Organizations (with NO up front COST for the fundraising organization!). Currently we're launching several campaign
s for these Non Profits with custom bags created by our graphics team that can be sold NATIONWIDE! These campaign events will be on a pre-sell basis so there's NO MONEY needed up front!
-Baseball and Softball bags for teams needing to raise money for equipment, travel, scholarships, etc.
-John 3:16 bag for Churches or other organizations and groups needing to raise money for mission trips, youth groups, an ill member with high medical bills, etc. You can view the Baseball and the John 3:16 bags in the photo album. We have recently partnered with the University of Arkansas's Apparel department students and professors for a campus wide fundraiser of Students Helping Students, creating accounts within the individual colleges on campus to raise needed funds for student travel, emergency funds for needed expenses, equipment, etc. The Apparel department is designing two bags for two different campaigns both to be launched in the Fall of 2012. One is for the campus fundraiser and the other is being designed for a BIG community Giving Back project which the Apparel students will fill the bags with product samples provided by companies and they will distribute the bags to homeless shelters of Northwest Arkansas. These two bags will be voted on (25 students designing two bags each) in May 2012 and we will then post photos of the winning bags! This is a very exciting campaign and we look forward to doing this again with the U of A as well as other universities, schools and organizations! Not only are the bags economical for the consumer to purchase and help our environment, but the organizations holding the fundraisers can raise a lot of money! The bags typically sell for $4 a piece and with folks needing MORE than one bag to do their shopping, the average person buys 5 bags for $20 making the organization $10! We've found through previous students selling bags, they average 30 bags per student. Imagine having only 100 people selling 30 bags a piece and being able to raise $6000! Where SLP&E can make more money for even MORE non profits is by giving businesses the opportunity to ADVERTISE to thousands of customers through the bag sales! We will be producing a small 6x8 magazine that will be inserted INSIDE the bags at the manufacturer. By working with local and national businesses to promote their companies, this will enable us to donate MUCH more funds to Non Profits!
