Summer Mission Trip Stock
Each Year AYM has invited Mission Trip participants to sell stock shares as a way to raise money and share the Mission Trip experience with the larger community. This has proven to be a great fundraiser that requires a minimal amount of effort.
Here is how it works…
1. Make a list of friends, relatives, employers, coaches and anyone else that supports and cares for you.
2. Contact each of these people (Letter, social media, phone call or in person) and ask them to become a stockholder in your Summer Mission Trip.
3. Each share cost $20.00 (Out of the $20, $10 will go to cover your trip fee and $10.00 will be set aside to cover the costs of the Stockholder’s Celebration.
4. AYM will extend an invitation to your Parents and all registered Stockholders to attend the Annual Stockholder’s Celebration. Trip participants are expected to help prepare, serve and clean up this evening with the exception of high school graduates.
5. All trip participants may print additional Stock Certificates and an example of a solicitation letter. (Both links below)
6. When you make a Stock Share sale, be sure to complete the Stockholder information form and return it and $20.00 share fee to AYM /509 W. 54thST./ Mpls./ MN/ 55419. A record of your stock sales and shareholder information will be kept on the computer in the youth room.
7. Be sure to give the AYM Stock Certificate to your new Stockholder.
8. Individual Summer Mission Trip Stock sales will end on May 1st. Summer Stock earnings will be subtracted from the FINAL payment and will be reflected in FINAL invoice.
Maximum fundraising credit cannot exceed the cost of your trip. Any credit above the cost of your trip will be added to the AYM Mission Trip General Fund.
