​Dear AmPark Families,


Join us in kicking off the school year with a popular fundraiser that we had the last three years, during the height of the pandemic.  Double Good is a popcorn pop-up store that offers different flavors of deliciousness and is always fresh. 
Double Good is a virtual fundraiser which is 100% contactless. AmPark will keep 50% of the total amount sold and the popcorn ships directly to the buyer.

We are looking for all families to participate!! Please create a Pop-Up Store and sell Double Good gourmet popcorn to your friends, family, co-workers! Prices range from $18-$59. Double Good Gourmet popcorn is award-winning and really delicious!


There will be prizes for the top three sellers.  The first-place winner will receive a $150 gift card, second place winner a $100.00 gift card, 3rd Place winner a $50.00 gift card and 4th place winner a $25.00 gift card.

Our fundraising window begins on October 11, 2023, at 5:00 PM and goes until October 15, 2023, at 5:00 PM.  This is a 4-day Fundraiser only! 

Before the fundraiser begins:
1. Download the Double Good app
2. Enter our Event Code FBCFWH in the app
3. Create your Pop-Up Store

The app is available for free on iOS and Android. 
If you choose not to create a store, that’s ok!!  You can help by sending a link to family and friends, to buy popcorn from one of our existing stores OR you can donate the popcorn to first responders!
Last year we had 28 pop-up stores which generated $8,540.00 for our school.  If we can get more families to participate, the school can make more which will help with funding!
Any questions please reach out to [email protected].

RECAUDACIÓN DE FONDOS DE POPTOBER!!
 
Estimadas familias de AmPark,


Únase a nosotros para comenzar el año escolar con una recaudación de fondos popular que tuvimos los últimos tres años, durante el apogeo de la pandemia.  Double Good es una tienda pop-up de palomitas de maíz que ofrece diferentes sabores de delicias y siempre es fresca. 
Double Good es una recaudación de fondos virtual que es 100% sin contacto. AmPark se quedará con el 50% del monto total vendido y las palomitas de maíz se envían directamente al comprador.


¡¡Buscamos que todas las familias participen!! ¡Cree una tienda emergente y venda palomitas de maíz gourmet Double Good a sus amigos, familiares, compañeros de trabajo! Los precios oscilan entre $ 18 y $ 59. ¡Las palomitas de maíz Double Good Gourmet son galardonadas y realmente deliciosas!


Habrá premios para los tres mejores vendedores.  El ganador del primer lugar recibirá una tarjeta de regalo de $150, el ganador del segundo lugar una tarjeta de regalo de $100.00, el ganador del 3er lugar una tarjeta de regalo de $50.00 y el ganador del 4to lugar una tarjeta de regalo de $25.00.


Nuestra ventana de recaudación de fondos comienza el 11 de octubre de 2023 a las 5:00 PM y se extiende hasta el 15 de octubre de 2023 a las 5:00 PM.  ¡Esta es una recaudación de fondos de 4 días solamente! 


Antes de que comience la recaudación de fondos:
1. Descarga la aplicación Double Good
2. Ingrese nuestro Código de Evento FBCFWH en la aplicación
3. Crea tu tienda emergente


La aplicación está disponible de forma gratuita en iOS y Android.
Si eliges no crear una tienda, ¡está bien!  ¡Puede ayudar enviando un enlace a familiares y amigos, para comprar palomitas de maíz en una de nuestras tiendas existentes O puede donar las palomitas de maíz a los socorristas!
El año pasado tuvimos 28 tiendas pop-up que generaron $8,540.00 para nuestra escuela.  Si podemos lograr que más familias participen, ¡la escuela puede hacer más, lo que ayudará con la financiación!
Cualquier pregunta por favor póngase en contacto con [email protected].
