Any fund raising campaign where the organization is trying to raise money by solicitation, selling or providing services, is covered by this department. There are some possible changes being proposed to this act, which may be announced in the new year. The ciim of their regulations is to ensure public accountability to people giving to charities. Over two million dollars was given by Albertans last to direct fund raising A new phenomenon in the fund raising scene is the promoter who will raise the money for you. The Consumer and Corporate Affairs Department is quite willing to discuss the reputability and contract terms that should be considered before entering this agreement with any promotor. Contact any regional office of Alberta Consumer and Corporate Affairs for more information about the requirements to register your fund raising campaign. They are quite willing to answer any of your questions. Remember to have "FUN" in your fund raising and do it within the regulations. All of our staff have been busy leading fund raising workshops in the past month. The need to raise money locally has always been part of the challenge of any agricultural society. We have developed quite an impressive list of new ideas and variations of old ideas through our travels. Thank you to Thorsby, Sangudo and Mundare for providing new ideas. One of the continuous concerns of fund raisers is "What are the Regulations?" We had a recent staff update in which the Alberta Gaming Commission and Consumer & Corporate Affairs reviewed their policies. The Alberta Gaming Commission is responsible for bingos, casinso, raffles and pull tickets. They have developed a very good information pamphlet available from Alberta Gaming Commission, 5th Floor South, Brownlee Building, 10365-97 St., Edmonton, Alberta, T5J 3W7, Phone 427-9746.
