New Fundraising Guidelines as of
February 12, 2011

Changes have been made to:

• Procedures
• Processes
• Forms

Fundraising activities must adhere to both
the national and provincial guidelines.

Prior to any fundraising, review the:

• BC Fundraising Guidelines
• National Fundraising Development Policy & Guidelines 
  (Governance Policy 01-19-01)

Contact your parent commissioner if you are unsure about any proposal. Where the National fundraising guidelines differ from the BC Fundraising Guidelines, BC Guiding Members must follow the guidelines set out by BC Guiding. 

To request fundraising approval (outside GGC cookie campaigns) use:

• Application for Fundraising Approval form FR.1 
• If fundraising for travel, the trip needs preauthorization by
  an Assessor before fundraising approval can be given.
  Use the Travel Authorization form SG.8 to request approval.

Important: All fundraising, which is not solely from cookie sales and which
totals $5,000 or more must be approved at the area level. Frequency and method of reporting to the area will be determined by the area.
