Cinnabon Fundraising
Frequently Asked Questions
Thanks for your interest in fundraising with us! To help you navigate your way through our Cinnabon Fundraising process, please take a look at the following list of questions weve often encountered about our fundraising program:
Can we sell the actual Cinnabon Rolls?
As yummy as our rolls are, our fundraising program is a certificate-based program only. Your organization sells the certificates to your customers and your customers redeem the certificates for one 6 pack of Cinnabon Rolls from the bakery youve selected to work with.
What are the costs of the certificates to my organization?
Weve recommended a suggested cost of $7.00 per certificate to the fundraising organization. Youll then sell the certificates to your fundraising customers for $10.00. However, since each bakery is individually-owned and operated, weve left the final determination of cost per certificate up to the participating bakery youve selected to work with.
Will we have to pay for the certificates upfront?
Yes.
How do I know if a certain bakery is a participating bakery?
To find out if a bakery is a participating bakery, youll need to click on the Find Us Near You link. Enter your address and choose a bakery from the list of bakeries that will come up. Call the bakery and ask to speak with a bakery manager to find out if that bakery is participating in Cinnabon fundraising.
How long will it take for us to receive our certificates once weve placed our order?
First, youll need to make sure your organization falls within one of the groupings of qualified non-profit or charitable organizations. See below:
Educational Organization: If funds generated from Cinnabon fundraising are being used to support a school or a school related organization (i.e. band student or parent group) associated with a school or educational institution,
Charitable Organization: If funds generated from Cinnabon fundraising are being used to support a non-profit organization or benevolent cause,
Community-Based Organization: If the funds are generated from Cinnabon fundraising are being used to support community based activities devoted exclusively to charitable, education, or recreational purposes.
Secondly, make sure youve selected a participating bakery. You can do this by clicking on the Find Us Near You link.
Once youve made sue all of this has been confirmed, you can usually expect at least a two-week window from the time you placed the order for your customized fundraising certificates to the time they arrive at the bakery for pick-up.
Is there a minimum number of fundraising certificates that our organization must order?
Yes, there is an order minimum of 50 certificates.
If I conduct my fundraising in one state can my consumers redeem them in another?
No. Each bakery is individually-owned and each fundraising initiative is ran independently of the other. Therefore, the bakery location where your organization purchased its certificates is the bakery location where your customers must go to redeem their 6 pack of Cinnabon cinnamon rolls.
