2.     Troop Number

3.     Single bead color

·      SEW GLAM Interest Project: You don't have to be a celebrity to have your own line of cool clothes or custom-designed accessories and bedroom décor! The "Sew Glam" Interest Project will take your sewing and knitting skills to superstar status.  Many girls asked for IPs "completely devoted to 'girlie girl' kinds of things." The Sew Glam Interest Project reflects that request and one of the hottest trends in fashion today: self-made glamour (distressed jeans, embroidered appliqués, knitwear, etc.) and JJVann & Co is here to help in a couple different ways!  You choose!

1.      Assisting in the embroidering

2.      Swarovski crystal embellishing an item of your choice!

Each IP is customized to your troop so please let us know which project your troop would like to complete.  Please allow for extra time for each embroidery project.  Prices will vary and are subject to change based on quantity and project-type purchased.

JJVann & Co. is helping put the FUN back into FUNdraising

As a company, JJVann & Co wants to assist you in raising money and earning huge profits with our fundraising programs. We have created these 2 fundraising options to show schools, churches, youth groups, sports teams, clubs or any other organization, what all of their options are when it comes to finding a fundraiser company. 

Although, some organizations have great success with cookie dough, magazine and candy bar fundraisers, we want to let you know that there are other options out there when organizing a fundraiser.  If you are looking for a new way to raise funds for your organization, we are here to help!  There are a LOT of fundraiser opportunities with products such as personalized stationary, health & beauty items, gourmet food & beverages, jewelry and even custom embroidery!  Take some time and look around our site for these fundraiser ideas and many more.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Choose which company(ies) you would like to use for your FUNdraiser.
2. Choose a method of fundraising.
  • The Catalog Fundraiser: A given number of catalogs will be distributed along with order forms with a start and end date will be set prior to the distribution of the catalogs. Once all orders are collected and returned to JJVann & Co., all orders will be tallied and given back within 3-4 weeks along with a check made payable to your organization.
  • The Open Fundraiser: A date, time and place are pre-determined where individuals can come at their leisure, browse, design, sample, etc. the products. E-mail addresses will need to be provided 2 weeks prior to the event and in return, the requested number of invitations will be given to the fundraising representative to hand out all participants, their family, friends, neighbor , co-workers, etc. Orders will be taken and closed the day/evening of the OPEN event.

3. With a minimum order of 25 items, JJVann & Co. will donate back to your organization $5 for every $30+ item sold and $2 for every item sold that is $25 or less.
