How It Works:
Organizing,
completing and selling your mosaic is straight forward and fun
to do!
You can complete the process in as few as nine weeks.
These are the simple steps you can expect after contracting
with Faces for Fundraising.
1. Estimate your number of
participants
 Generally,
this is for groups of 400 - 4,000 participants.
Depending
on your number of participants, we'll design your Self
Portrait form
with 1-4 drawing squares.
The
goal is to generate between 1600 and 2,500 drawings (visual
data squares)
The
detail of the image is what will decide how many drawings
we'll need.
If
you have a smaller population of participants, your self
portrait form may have up
to 3 additional spaces on which to collect more visual data
from each participant, such a
a decorated name square or other simple drawings based on a
predetermined theme.
CASE EXAMPLE: In addition to drawing their faces, one
elementary school of 700 participants had their folks draw
flowers and animals, generating 3 visual data squares from
each participant to accumulate 2100 visual data squares.
We'll design the right form for you with the proper structure
to ensure success.

2. Choose your source image
Choose
a design relevant to your organization such as a symbol, logo,
building or mascot.
You
have the option to choose a second mosaic image to represent
your surrounding city.
With
a landmark or locally celebrated building your market broadens
outside your school members to include your community, city or
region! People don't have to be in the mosaic
to identify and buy the community image. This can bring bigger
profits.
............................................................................................................................
3. Create your self portraits (& other drawings) on our
official form
All
drawings must be on the special Self Portrait Response Form©.
This
form provides simple instructions to ensure successful
results.
You
will receive your form via email as a PDF file within 5 days
after we receive the completed contract and initial payment.
Duplicate
and distribute the Self Portrait Response Form.
Give
participants a few different opportunities to draw to maximize
participation.
You
have the freedom to run the interactivity - so make it fun for
everyone and provide a structure that will help complete the
task.
Complete
and collect the drawings over a 2 week timeframe.
Faces
can be created in 10-25 minutes.
Use
BOTH Crayons & Markers to ensure variety
............................................................................................................................
4. Mail back your faces and
receive your products
Once
we receive all your drawings, we will begin creating the
digital mosaic file(s).
Mail
the drawing forms back, try to keep them all facing the same
direction and in one or two boxes.
It
generally takes 3-4 weeks for us to complete your mosaic,
create and package your products and bulk ship them to your
organization.
Face to face sales of pre-purchased product works best,
because your buyers won't pay tax or shipping.We also offer the option of an online fundraiser; if
interested, ask us about this when you call.
