FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How can my congregation participate?

Go to the contact page, give your contact information and say your religious organization is interested and we'll be in touch with you.

How can I volunteer to help AGM Cape Cod?

For this year the best way to help is to publicize AGM Cape Cod is to share link to this website. To help in future years go to the contacts page, fill in your contact information, say you'd like to volunteer and we'll be in touch with you.

How will my friend know I gave a gift in her honor?

With your holiday or birthday card, print and insert the printable gift announcement or write a note in the card, and mail it to him or her or them.

Where can I get gift cards to send the friend I am honoring?

AGM provides a gift announcement for you to print when you donate online for a gift. Put the gift announcement in the card you're planning to send. Cards created for the live market are not available this year but we will have them again when the market is live.

Can I just make a donation and not honor anyone?

Yes, of course! That's exactly what many people do.

Can I give an amount not listed by the charity?

Yes, of course. All donations are welcome.

Can I post a flyer to publicize the alternative gift market?

Yes, please do.  Look at the menu at the top of the page, click MORE, and then go to AGM Flyer 2020 and click to print a PDF of our flyer. And thanks for helping to publicize the market.

Will I be able to go back and forth between this site and the virtual online shopping site?

Yes, but better safe than sorry -   bookmark this site so you can get back to it easily.

Does AGM include different charities every year?

Yes. There are so many worthy causes! We try to get a good mix each year and will repeat charities if the selection team thinks many people would like to see favorites again.

How are the expenses of putting on the market covered?

The sponsoring congregations share the expenses of AGM each year.  Credit card fees are our biggest expense each year. This year, because the fund-raiser is virtual instead of live, all online purchases will have to be made by credit card so we will be asking shoppers at checkout to voluntarily pitch in to offset that expense.  

What percentage of the funds raised by the AGM go to the sponsoring congregations?

No proceeds from the market go to the congregations.  

100% of the donations go to the participating charitable organizations.

Is the AGM Cape Cod a 501c3?

No,  AGM Cape Cod is a once a year event and it is not incorporated as a 501c3.  The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Falmouth (UUFF) is our fiscal agent which makes all donations tax deductible. If you shop online your receipt will come from UUFF. If you shop by mail you will make out your check to UUFF-AGM and mail it to UUFF attention Christine Michelson at 840 Sandwich Road, East Falmouth MA 02536. 

Will I be able to purchase fair trade items this year from AGM Cape Cod?

No,  not this year through the virtual market but will be available at our next live market.
