I Love Chipotle... I eat there on average 2x per week There is one about a mile from the school and i go there all the time. All the workers know i coach football. About a month ago manager says she wants to talk to me... tells me they just started doing fundraisers...
you know... one day, people come in and show their flyer... they give you a little % of the money
I was already thinking of how i was going to say NO THANKS and then she told me it is a 50% SPLIT
so I decided to set it up. I gave her my email that night, i got an email form corporate Chipotle the next day to set it up... i entered basic school and contact info into the website and entered our school's tax ID
literally 2 minutes worth of work
They emailed the flyers to use, we put it all over social media leading up to our Fundraiser Day I emailed our whole staff about it I put the flyers around school.
I can not stress how little work i had to do. Our "Chipotle Day" was this past Tuesday... Good amount of support, and i am pretty sure the workers were hitting the "fundraiser button" on the register a few extra times... but we made $2,500 in 1 day
If you have a chipotle near you, go in and ask a manager about doing this fundraiser
-Super Simple -Chipotle is really popular -10 minutes of total work on your end -Nice little fundraiser for us
Way better than any other restaurant fundraiser any organization at this school has ever done
I will do another one later this year when we get closer to the season if they let me

Yeah-50% is awesome, that fundraiser goes on all the time around here but usually its only 10%. Our school is right next to a literal one stop light town. There is a Subway restaurant in that town, and they set it up where last year we had one of those nights every month from Feb-May. It was a pretty good little fundraiser, the first one they did was the most business the store had ever done in one day.

Getting on this train for my track program. The local manager even told me they have been known to team up with the nearby Yogurtland to do a dinner/dessert fundraiser at 50% profit.
Pretty excited for this.

Necessity is the mother of all invention. It's amazing what getting pounded in the media and a plummeting stock price will do to get the creative juices/incentives flowing. Good for them and I love their food!
I'm planning on talking to the one in our area now that I know. Thanks for the heads up.

I just spoke with the one here in Fayetteville,NC on Monday morning, just got the e-mail that it was approved this morning. Looking forward to it, thanks for the heads up on this.
