A unique fundraiser for Chambers of Commerce and other membership-based organizations.

Start with an online member directory we create for you. Use it on your website to showcase your members and draw traffic to their listings. Each member receives a complimentary Basic listing with many features. Members can also purchase affordable enhanced listings with much more information, visuals and other features that draw more attention to their business.

There are two levels of Sponsorship:

Enhanced Sponsor Listing:
only $399/year

Support and promote Pickering Soccer while getting super value for online advertising! Your enhanced listing will be enhanced on partner directories across Durham Region and highlighted with the distinctive Pickering Soccer logo – all for the same annual fee!

Highlighted Sponsor Listing:
only $50/year

A Basic Listing, highlighted with the Pickering Soccer icon identifying you as a proud supporter of Pickering Soccer across Durham Region.

Here's where the revenue comes in.

We are offering organizations the opportunity to sell enhanced listings to your members and share not only in the revenue on the initial sale, but also on annual renewals. Enhanced Listings will appear on your organization’s membership directory, as well as on any other of your local participating Regional YLM Directories, all for one cost.

Here’s how it works:

• $499 to set up the directory for your organization
• We adapt the directory “look and feel” to look like your directory!
• Each of your members has a Basic Listing (contact information, marketing message, searchable key words, map, services, hours of operation and a link to their website)
• We create digital copies of marketing materials for you to use and email them to you
• We train and support you on how to upgrade your membership listings
• We invoice your organization (quarterly) for every listing sold or renewed, and your organization keeps the remaining percentage based on which Fundraising Option you choose

In communities where Regions or Towns are using YLM directories, participating Chamber of Commerce members are highlighted with logo icons next to all their members’ listings on both your directory and the Regional directories, distinguishing your member businesses across your Region!

This showcases your members not only on your own directory, but also across your larger Region’s directories!

Fund Raiser Options:

1. The highest profit margin - promote, sell, collect, upgrade & support your own members’ Basic and Enhanced Listings (it’s easy - we will train you). We invoice you $160 for every listing sold or renewed.


2. Promote, sell and collect. We do the upgrades for you. We invoice you $240 for every listing sold or renewed.

In just one month, we can have your Directory Fundraiser up and running so you can start earning revenue for your organization!
