Fund Raisers, Ltd. has been helping its partners and their fundraising projects since 1987.  In the beginning we only provided our customers with memorial bricks (personalized bricks), engraved bricks, and tile products.  Through years of experience and listening to our customers, we have broadened the scope of fundraising possibilities.

  • Developed “Bricks Software” that manages memorial brick fundraisers and donor recognition software
  • Created extensive and fully-customizable online personalized brick ordering system
  • Introduced first “How To” manual that makes the personalized brick fundraising process easy
  • Created certificates of appreciation for each memorial brick/engraved brick suitable for framing
  • Introduced "replicas" - Exact duplicates of the personalized brick, memorial brick or engraved brick
  • Created Glass replicas for glass panel donation walls. This is a great fundraising idea.
  • Established fulfillment services to fill gaps for resource-strapped partners and enable fundraising promotional items as well as full service personalized brick fundraising or memorial brick fundraising.
    • Customer Service/Call Center, Payment Processing, Order Processing, Shipping and Financial Reporting

We continue to innovate and adapt to meet our customers needs in all areas of engraved brick fundraising.



Memorial Brick or Engraved Tile Fundraising Programs:

Personalized brick fundraising programs are a win-win proposition for any organization or community project:

  • Personalized brick pavers make an indelible connection between the customer and the fundraising organization. 
  • Engraved Brick Pavers and/or engraved tiles add aesthetic appeal to the area chosen.
  • Memorial bricks have a proven track record of raising substantial revenue for many great causes.  

Using details specific to your brick fundraiser, we will work with you to determine:

  1. Which engraved brick or tile is appropriate for your project.
  2. How many personalized bricks or tiles can be accommodated in your designated area.
  3. Memorial brick Donation levels that will maximize your revenue.
  4. Which sections of our "How To" manual will show you how to successfully market and promote your personalized brick paver campaign.
  5. Whether it is best for Fund Raisers, Ltd. to handle your personalized brick orders and take care of other administrative tasks or if you should do it using our “Bricks” software programs.



Have Fun Marketing Your Memorial Brick Program:

Remember that most successful marketing starts with a story.  This helps to connect your engraved brick donors to your fundraiser.  Utilize all the resources in the community through donations or service exchanges.  Over the years, we have been amazed at the resourcefulness of fundraising partners when doing memorial brick fundraisers.

Examples:

  • Create a story that gets your engraved brick fundraiser press from your local paper (free advertising).
  • Give a local print shop a free business logo 8x8 personalized brick paver if they develop your program brochure.
  • Give a local paper or radio station a free business logo 8x8 personalized brick paver for advertising space.

Memorial brick fundraising has never been easier!

Our replica program serves to deepen the connection between your supporters and your organization while raising additional revenue for your engraved brick fundraiser.  Replicas can be produced and shipped long before your installation and serve as an effective marketing tool.

Doing a memorial brick fundraising program with multiple products offered at tiered pricing enables your organization to maximize its revenue.  Capable donors will give more to your cause if the option is available.

Example:

Product   Proposed Donation Amount
4x8 Engraved Brick Paver   $50 - $100
8x8 Engraved Brick Paver   $175 - $225
8x8 Engraved Logo Paver    $200 - $250
12x12 Engraved Granite   $500 - $1500
Larger Engraved Granite   Priced to the Market 




Engraved Glass Panel and Replica Fundraising Programs:

These programs work well indoors and can accommodate places where it is difficult to acquire an area that would be appropriate for traditional brick program.

Minnesota Twins Tradition Wall
- In a spectacular piece of art, the Twins Tradition Wall on Target Plaza celebrates their first 50 years by permanently joining fan names with the team rosters of every player since their inaugural season in 1961.  The players’ names are listed on bronze pennants and the fans’ names are etched into eight-foot-tall glass panels.
