Wellness Workx is offering a fundraising program for travel sports teams which is similar in concept to Girl Scout Cookie® fundraising. Families, players, friends and neighbors purchase products in order to support the club financially.
The sports club elects to become a Shaklee distributor and receives commission income from products sold to it’s members.

Effective fundraising allows the team to provide a quality experience for all players regardless of their financial situation.
