Fundraising

Cookie Dough

     Gentry FBLA worked with Fasco, Inc. to sell tubs of frozen cookie dough. Our profits from this venture were over $4,200.  We were so pleased with the end result of this fundraiser that we plan on participating for years to come.

 

Razorback Football/Basketball Games

     Gentry FBLA contracted through Sodexho to work concession stands at the Arkansas Razorback home football and basketball games. This fundraiser was rather disappointing but our members gained valuable business experience. Ms. Brady, our advisor, recruited members, parents, and other volunteers to man the concession stands. This labor intensive endeavor took a great deal of team work to accomplish.  

 

Printing Services

     Throughout the year FBLA offers our services and equipment to help other organizations in Gentry High School. This year we created the Benton County Basketball Tournament Program, which was hosted at GHS, and the GHS Choir Dinner Show Program. FBLA receives a percentage of the program sales. This was an excellent fundraiser as well as great experience for the members who create the programs.

 

Pop and Cake Sale

    Gentry FBLA had the opportunity to sell Coke products and Little Debbie snack cakes to students. Coke products aren't offered regularly at GHS so we felt confident that the demand would be high. During lunch hour, members set up a table and served the entire student body. Sales were at a all time high, right before the plunge of 11:40 a.m. when we ran all out of beverages.
