Press Release Summary = OCFundraising.com - a California based national fundraising
company wants to bring attention to the fact many fundraising companies out there
are charging too much for products - this money should remain with the
school/organization doing the fundraiser. Jason Smith, CEO spoke to a Hershey\'s
national sales who informed Smith that they are knowingly giving leads to a
\"fundraising\" company with a much higher price structure than OCFundraising.com and
are not interested in changing.

Press Release Body = Brea, CA - OCFundraising.com, a distributor of Hershey\'s
fundraising products wants to bring attention to the fact that Hershey\'s Corporation
seems to be more concerned about serving certain fundraising companies than helping
groups raise a maximum amount of money from their fundraising campaigns. Jason
Smith, CEO of OCFundraising.com spoke to a Hershey\'s national sales manager who
glazed over Smith\'s attempts to point out that the fundraising industry needs to be
ethical and apply the tenets of AFRDS - the National Association of Fundraising
companies. OCFundraising.com offers a much lower price structure to schools for
fundraising candy than their competitors. Hershey\'s is giving leads to a
\"fundraising\" company known to sell the product for up to $8 more per case than
competitive companies such as Smith\'s OCFundraising.com. What does this mean to
America? The less money a school/organization retains from a fundraiser, the more
they have to rely on government funding, and or additional fundraisers. So why
should a school have to pay $8 more per case to a fundraising company which is not
adding any value for the higher price charged. Note: An average order might be 100 +
cases.
