Fundraiser Request Form PDF Details

Organizing a fundraiser on Maxwell Air Force Base requires careful adherence to guidelines set forth by the 42D Force Support Squadron. The Maxwell-Gunter Fundraiser Request Form is an essential document that initiates this process. It mandates that organizers submit their request 14 days before the event, detailing the purpose, timing, and location, all while committing to the base’s regulations. This form serves as a pledge by the requestor to absolve the United States of America from any liabilities arising from the event, emphasizing the accountability of the organizing members for any incidents. Furthermore, it lays down specific rules such as the prohibition of advertising the event until approval, restrictions on posting flyers, and requirements for all promotions to explicitly indicate that the event is not affiliated with the Department of Defense. The form also inquires about the organization’s standing, other ongoing fundraisers, and compliance with public health and workplace norms, reaffirming the need for all activities to be voluntary and free from federal endorsement. Approvals are contingent upon coordination with relevant base authorities to ensure the event adheres to Air Force Instructions and local laws, highlighting the stringent process to safeguard the interests of the Air Force community and its members.

DECISION OF APPROVAL AUTHORITY:

YOUR REQUEST TO CONDUCT A FUNDRAISER AT THE TIMES AND DATES INDICATED IS:

APPROVED DENIED

42D FORCE SUPPORT SQUADRON COMMANDER

INSTRUCTIONS

1.Appropriate coordination and approval are required for all fundraising requests. Proper coordination procedures are listed below. Please route the request accordingly to ensure the proper agencies have reviewed your request. You may not conduct or advertise your fundraising event prior to final approval.

2.All fundraising activities must begin with 42 FSS/FSR. Fundraising is governed by AFI 36-3101 and AFI 34-223.

3.Air Force members must not do anything that implies Federal endorsement of a fundraising event and may not actively participate in fundraising while on duty, in uniform, or while at the workplace. All DoD members who participate in this event must do so with the clear understanding that they may only do so in their capacity as individuals. Civilian employees, like military members, are subject to the requirements of AFI 36-3101 and the Joint Ethics Regulation (JER).

4.Fundraisers are to be conducted away from the workplace in a non-administrative area. The installation commander defines

“workplace” areas. The AFI provides examples of “workplace” areas (offices, hangars, flight line) and areas not considered to be the “workplace” (base quarters, entrances, lobbies or concourses of buildings, schools, chapels, break rooms).

5.A fundraiser may not consist of frequent/continuous resale activities or compete with AAFES or FSS affiliated activities.

Occasional sales, however, are permitted. “Occasional” has been defined as not more than two (2) events per calendar quarter.

6.Private organizations and unofficial activities/organizations may not sell or serve alcoholic beverages.

7.Door-to-door solicitation is largely prohibited in military housing areas. This prohibition exists to protect the security of the installation, avoid high-pressure sales techniques, and provide military personnel and their families a peaceful living environment free from unwanted intrusions. As such, access to military housing for door-to-door solicitation is and will be highly restricted.

8.Government email may not be used in furtherance of this fundraiser. For example, an organization may not use mass- email messages sent from government computers to advertise the fundraising event.

9.Solicitation of DoD personnel junior in rank, grade, or position is prohibited.

Once submitted to 42 FSS, the approval process may take up to fourteen (14) days. Please plan accordingly.
