About Fund Raising Drives
Why glow sticks for fund raising?
We decided on glow sticks for fund raising for a number of reasons:- they are fun for children and adults - which means there is a large market to sell to
- they are healthy - some drives offer unhealthy products and thus make it difficult for people to say "yes" - glow sticks don't have this problem.
- they are very profitable - because we source glow sticks directly from the manufacturer we are able to give our service at a low price.

About Glow Products
When is the best time to use glow sticks?
Glow sticks can be used all year round. People love to play with them inside during winter as well as outside during the summer months.How do glow sticks work?
Glow sticks are made up of two tubes each containing a separate liquid. The inner tube of the glow stick is made of glass and holds one set of liquids while the outer tube of a glow stick is made of plastic and it contains the inner glass tube, and a second set of liquids.
When the inner glass tube is broken (by bending the glow stick) the two liquids mix causing a chemical reaction which is what causes the glow.
Can you turn glow sticks off?
Once glow sticks are activated they can not be turned off.How do you activate glow sticks?
To activate glow sticks you simply bend them until you hear a "cracking" sound and shake. The craking sound is the small glass tube inside the glow stick breaking so that the two liquids can mix together.What ages are glow sticks suitable for?
Glow sticks are not suitable for children under 3 years old. If your child is older than three you should use your discretion to determine whether they are able to safely play with our glow products.
