Request for New Event

We will need some information from you before we can create your event.

This form does not setup your event!
It passes your information to a Funny 4 Funds Comedy Consultant who will confirm all information before your event will go live on the website.

This is a long form and it cannot be saved.
Please make sure you have all necessary information before you start.

There are three sections to this form.

  • Event Coordinator Information (tell us about you)
  • Event Information (tell us about your event)
  • Check Recipient Information (who will receive the proceeds from this event)

Event Coordinator Information:

The Event Coordinator will:

  • Be the primary contact between your organization and a Funny 4 Funds Branch Manager.
  • Will have online access to event reports including, attendees, sponsors, donors and total revenue raised.
You will be able to edit this once your event is setup.

  • Will be on the Funny 4 Funds website, displayed on online tickets, generated for your flyer and on social media.

Service and Processing Fees

All website transactions have service processing fees. Funny 4 Funds gives you the option to absorb the fees or pass along service and processing fees to the purchaser. This applies to:

  • Tickets
  • Sponsorships 
  • Donations.

If you opt to absorb fees, we provide the purchaser the option to cover the fees at checkout. 

They will see: "I wish to help "Your Fundraiser" by covering the service and processing fees.

See the example below for a $20.00 show ticket.

For a $20.00 ticket, if you opt to absorb fees, the purchaser will pay $20.00 and your fundraiser will net $17.87 from the ticket sale.
If the purchaser checks the box "I wish you help Your Fundraiser", they will pay $22.13, and you will receive $20.00

If you choose to pass along fees in the above scenario, the purchaser will be required to pay $22.13 and your fundraiser will receive $20.00 from the ticket sale.

Not sure what to do? Here is some guidance.

Tickets: Passing along fees is common. Online fees for event tickets is expected in today's society. For some events with higher ticket prices, around $50 or greater, generally Event Coordinators choose to absorb the fees.

Sponsorships: Passing along fees for Sponsorships varies by event. Sponsorships typically start at $100.00. If you choose to pass along fees the Sponsor will pay around $106. Some Sponsors will be okay with this and others may have an issue with the small additional charge. If you choose to absorb the fees, the sponsor will always have the option to check the box and cover the fees for you.

Donations: We suggest to absorb the fees on donations. Passing along fees on donations can be tricky. If someone makes a donation to your fundraiser and you force them to 'donate more' by passing along the fees may not sit well. Many donors will often opt to cover the fees for you. 

Ultimately it is your event and you choose how you want to run it. 
PLEASE NOTE WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE, IT CANNOT BE CHANGED ONCE YOUR EVENT IS LIVE!

We have found the most successful shows ask for a minimum of $100.00 for a sponsorship. A sponsor can contribute more than the minimum.
