Purser Center - Fundraising Opportunity

February 14, 2014

William D. Purser, DC Center

The Purser Center is currently looking for nonprofit groups or organizations to run a concession stand during dance competitions held at the Purser Center.  Dance competitions are high volume and long running events that last throughout a weekend.  This would be a great opportunity for any nonprofit or charitable organization looking for a way to raise money. 

Typical concession stand fare includes hot dogs, pretzels, nachos, candy, chips and sodas however groups may be creative in their offerings.  Groups should be prepared to:

- Provide all staffing (2-3 people throughout the suggested timeframe)
- Food and beverage product for the concession stand
- Any food and beverage equipment needed to produce food and beverage products

A Logan University student, faculty, staff or graduate must be an active participant in the non-profit organization in order to participate in this opportunity. 

All profits raised by the non-profit are kept by the non-profit

Available concession stand dates and suggested hours are as follows:

Friday, February 28, 2014                                            3:00 pm – 9:00 pm
