Q. How does this work? When you say “up to 33%” goes to benefit my
cause, what does this really mean?
A. The difference between the
published Suggested Retail Price and Wholesale Price is donated to
your organization, which is the 33%. We also receive a monthly
volume bonus on total sales from our vendor,
which we retain for providing the income generating
benefit to our non-profit friends.
Accessories, shipping charges and taxes are not included in the total sales
amount to calculate the earnings that will be donated. Prices and
donation percentages are
subject to change without notice.
Q. Am I
paying the same price for my products, even though my favorite cause
is receiving up to 33% of my purchases?
A. Yes. You are paying the same
Published Suggested Retail Price for the products. The price you
see is the Published Suggested Retail Price directly from the
manufacturer. For full publication of all Suggested Retail prices,
feel free to contact us for a complete catalog listing.
Q. Do I get a tax deduction for up to 33% of my purchases,
which go to my favorite cause?
A.
No. The IRS limits tax deductibility for charitable
contributions to the amount paid over and above the fair market
price for an item. Since the prices you pay when buying from your
charity’s dedicated website are the same as if you purchased these
products at the published Suggested Retail Price from our vendor's
website, no deductible event occurs.
Q. Can I be sure the
33% will be passed along to my favorite cause?
A. Yes. The Giving Profits Marketing Team will fully
comply with all relevant laws and statutes. The agreement we
have with our Charity Partners gives them the right to audit our
records to ensure that they are receiving all monies due them at
any time.
Q. I’m
uncomfortable providing my credit card information over the
Internet. May I order any other way?
A. Yes. You may call the company 800 toll free product
ordering line that we will provide you or call our voice mail at
1-800-255-8405 and let us know you would like us to call in your
order using your Visa, Master Card, Discover and or American
Express.
Q. What if I’m not happy with what I purchased,
may I return it?
A. Yes. Every product has an Unconditional Money Back
Guarantee backed by the manufacturer. A convenient Product Return
Shipping Label is included with your product order. If our products
are not the best they can be — and the best you can buy — what else
matters?
So if you don't experience the desired results from any of the
nutritional, personal care, or household products, you may return
the unused portion for a 100% refund. In addition to a money-back
guarantee, the company offers:
- 100% guarantee that the ingredients listed on the label are in the
product
- 100% guarantee of quality-controlled product formulations that
ensure product safety, purity, reliability, and product performance
- 100% guarantee that the company uses the finest quality ingredients
available
- We offer personal service. If you wish to call us first we will be
more than happy to take care of the problem for you.
Q. Can I have my orders shipped to another
address or APO/FPO?
A. Yes, purchases may be delivered
directly to the address of your choice within the U.S. APO/FPO's are
also accepted.
Certain requirements for shipments must be met to conform to
strict military regulations:
All orders must have a valid name and military address (APO/FPO)
Each order is limited to personal use only ($750 maximum)
Orders will be shipped via USPS Parcel Post only.
Consistently meeting these requirements will help ensure that we
can continue to offer direct shipments to our troops overseas.
Q. What happens if I return a product for a
refund, does my organization still keep the 33%?
A. No. The amount of the refund will
be deducted from the total amount of sales for that month or any
month the refund occurs, thus reducing the 33% being donated.
Q. I am already a Shaklee Member, can I
participate in this program?
A. No. As a registered Shaklee
member you are required to purchase your products using your
member ID at MyShaklee.com It is your choice to then donate your
member savings to your favorite charity by other means.
