What Do Our Customers Have To Say?

I am quite proud of the service that Fun Services provides for our customers and if you know me, you know that I can talk for seemingly forever. For a change, I’m going to sit this one out and instead share testimonials and reviews from some of our customers.

 Fun Services is the best for all school shop needs. They have products to fit any student’s budget and also they are great community members and offer an amazing partnership with toys for tots!! Love working with everyone in the office. They are all personable and efficient!

Sidenote: The owner loves when you call him Mr.Fun! But don’t tell him that I told you.

Lori at Fun Services has been great! This is our 3rd year with them and not only have I been pleased with the communication, ease of process, and the fundraising capabilities, but parents are happy with the products their students are able to purchase at the Christmas Shop! I appreciate all of Lori and Fun Services’ help in making our Christmas Shop a success <3

Lori is amazing. She made sure we had everything we needed to run smooth holiday shop for the kids. We loved that when we did our reorderd daily we received that night so that first thing the next day we could have everything put out for our kids. They definitely have a better selection of stuff and the prices are amazing as well. We loved last years holiday shop it had stuff for every price range and we did hear our students loved the items more last year as well. Can’t wait for this year’s holiday shop.

Excellent experience! We organized Santa’s workshop with Fun Services at Little Flower Catholic School, Hollywood, FL. The entire process was smooth and efficient and we were impressed with how fast they responded to our questions and requests – the restocking was incredibly fast and allowed us to have the presents that the kids wanted. We will definitely work with them again!

Have you noticed a trend with reviews mentioning Lori? Lori is an incredible asset here at Fun Services. She goes above and beyond for customers. Lori is an absolutely incredible resource for customers having previous PTA experience herself!

Mike was so helpful and available to walk us through everything during our first time using their services for our Fall Fest and Holiday Shop. The items for the Holiday Shop were very nice and the kids love them. We definitely recommend them to other schools!!

Great company! Everything was boxed neatly together with great instructions to help you through the process. Reording was done quickly if you needed to reorder. The kids had a blast!

Reviews like these are what Fun Services strives for with every single customer. We are a small family owned business and we take each and every customer personal. We are lucky to have amazing customers and to have had so many become close friends throughout the years. One reason we love what we do is the relationships we are so lucky to have established along the way. Volunteer boards have such incredible people and we are thankful for each and every board that has trusted us with providing their Holiday Gift Shop.

Design Your Own Promotional Materials

What if I told you that you could design flyers, social media images, edit photos, and customize any promotional material your organization could ever need? That you don’t need to have any graphic design experience like Photoshop or Illustrator… And it would be FREE?? I have years of experience with graphic design programs and I still use Canva 99% of the time.

Canva is an awesome tool and nonprofits are eligible to use it for free! It has everything you could possibly dream of. You make a new file and select what you want to use it for and it will automatically make it the correct dimensions. Whether you want to make Instagram posts, Facebook posts, presentations, flyers for events, or edit graphics for your organization’s website Canva has you covered.

Another really cool feature that Canva offers for their Pro version is that you can make a link to your design that will allow others with Pro to edit it. I like to supply customers with promotional material for Holiday Gift Shop, Carnivals, etc.. and now you can even personalize it to your liking! Simply add your school name and any details you would like and voila – professional quality marketing in just a few minutes!

In order to get the Pro version for free you need to do a few things but it’s very easy. 1. Fill out their application. 2. They verify that your Non-Profit is eligible. 3. You’ll get an e-mail confirmation. I have zero affiliation with Canva other than being a very satisfied customer. MANY of my customers are already using Canva Pro and I highly suggest you do too!

Sounds too good to be true right? Check it out for yourself! https://www.canva.com/canva-for-nonprofits/

What is a Holiday Gift Shop?

Holiday Gift Shop, Santa’s Secret Shop, Winter Wonderland Shop, Holiday Shoppe, etc.. Some of the many names that the Holiday Gift Shop has been referred to as.

So what is a Holiday Gift Shop? Quite simply, the Holiday Gift Shop is a chance for students to shop for gifts for their family during the holidays. It is a magical experience that allows the students to pick out gifts for each family member. The kids put in so much thought and care into picking a gift that they want to give their loved ones. It is absolutely adorable watching them pick each gift, deciding which gift that their loved one would like the most. Personally, my favorite gifts every year are the ones from Holiday Gift Shop. Seeing what the kids chose for me each year just melts my heart. I think of them every time I have my morning coffee with my Best Uncle mug.

In addition to being a program that the kids love and cherish for a lifetime, it is also an opportunity for your organization to hold a fundraiser. Holiday Gift Shop profits typically range from 10%-35% (But be warned, some companies don’t offer profit on items under $1). This program is not the biggest fundraiser but it is by far the most magical for the kids.

So what kind of gifts are offered? This varies a lot between companies but typically there is a wide range of gifts so that there is something for everyone in the family. #1 Dad mugs, Mom Photo Frames, Uncle keychains, Best Aunt Necklaces, Grandma Heart Necklaces, and so much more! Just to give you an idea, here is what we offered in 2021: View Our Gift Line. When you are looking at Holiday Gift Shop companies make sure that they’re more than just a toy store. If you want the students to be able to shop for gifts for all of their family members, make sure your vendor has gifts in every category. Vendors typically carry anywhere from 50 to 200 different items (We carry between 125 and 175 each year). This allows the students to be able to choose a gift for each loved one that is within their price range. When a student is shopping for 5-10+ people the gifts have to be affordable.

Here are some pictures to give a better idea of what a Holiday Gift Shop can look like. These were submitted by amazing customers who go above and beyond for their students!
