  • When will the book be available?                                                                        

We estimate books will be delivered by Mother’s Day 2011.  Sales will cease on April 1, 2010 and

printing and binding will occur in the month of April.

  • What is the cost of the book?                                                                            

$39.95 plus applicable sales tax and shipping charges if the purchaser chooses to have their

book shipped to them.

convenience.

leading printer.  The book will be a hard cover coffee table book with a dust cover, embossed

hard cover, 384 pages and the highest quality paper with the highest quality print.  In a bookstore,

this book would easily sell for $60.00 or more.

 All proceeds up to $20.00 per book will be donated to the participating organization. If less than 3500 books are sold, the net proceeds to each organization may be less.

Graphics in Loveland.  All net proceeds will then be delivered to the participating non-profits.  This

best people, places and things that make us America’s sweetheart City.  John Giroux: "I wanted to give back to

Loveland for all Loveland has given me."

  • Is there a deadline for responding?                                                                      

The longer an organization waits, the less time purchasers will have to choose the organization

for their purchase proceeds.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING

This Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") is entered into as of this ___ day of ___________________ by and between Loveland 365, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company ("Loveland 365"), and _________________________________ (the "Affiliate").

Loveland 365 wishes to produce, from time to time as it may decide, books, calendars, souvenirs, photographs, and other collections or memorabilia (the "Materials") to promote civic pride and understanding in the City of Loveland, Colorado, and to generate support for nonprofit charitable organizations that provide services to or otherwise support the shared community life of Loveland, Colorado. The Affiliate is a nonprofit charitable organization that wishes to promote the sale and distribution of the Materials with the understanding that certain proceeds from the sale of the Materials shall be remitted to the Affiliate in support of its charitable purposes. The purpose of this MOU is to set forth the understanding of the parties with respect to (1) the shared marketing of Materials produced by Loveland 365 from time to time, and (2) the remittances to be made to the Affiliate.

In consideration of the foregoing, for the mutual covenants and set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

  1. Receipts from Sales. Loveland 365 shall maintain a program with affiliate nonprofit organizations so that purchasers of the Materials may designate one of such affiliates to receive all of the purchase price of any of the Materials, less the reasonable costs and overhead of Loveland 365 incurred in producing the Materials and in general operations. The specific terms of this program may be modified from time to time by Loveland 365, in its sole discretion, provided that such modifications are consistent with the general purposes set forth herein. During the term of this MOU, Affiliate shall be one of these participating affiliates, and shall receive, from time to time, a pro rata share of the net proceeds from the sale of Materials based on the program in place and the designations made under the program by the purchasers of Materials.

     
  2. Marketing Efforts. To further the goals set forth herein, and as full and fair consideration for the remittance of receipts to the Affiliate, Affiliate agrees to make reasonable and diligent efforts to promote the sales of the Materials to its stakeholders and supporters during the term of this MOU, and to encourage these stakeholders and supporters to designate the Affiliate in connection with any purchases of Materials.

     
  3. Term and Termination. This MOU shall be in effect for one (1) calendar year from the date hereof, and shall automatically renew for successive one-year terms unless terminated by a party. Either party hereto may terminate this MOU upon fifteen (15) days' advance written notice to the other party; provided, however, that the terms of the MOU shall continue to govern any receipts from any sale of Materials if the said sale was booked prior to the termination of the MOU.

This MOU shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Colorado, with venue for any disputes in Larimer County.

Letter to Non-Profits to Explain Fundraising Opportunity TEXT:

 

Loveland 365 Offers Local Groups Fundraising Opportunity

Community groups and non-profits can gain via L365 book sales

 

Loveland, Colorado – Loveland 365, a local project dedicated to sharing all there is to love about Loveland, Colorado, is pleased to present an opportunity for local community groups and non-profit organizations to raise funds.

 

“We undertook Loveland 365 as a project to showcase the community, and now are looking to partner with any interested local community groups who are seeking a fundraising opportunity,” notes John Giroux, L365 founder.

 

Retail value of the book is $39.99, representing an opportunity for organizations to keep up to $20 from the sale of each book.

 

Loveland 365 has been well-received by the community, amassing almost 2,700 Facebook fans and gaining support from the Loveland Connection newspaper, which runs weekly features on the stories being told by the project.

 

About Loveland 365

Local resident and businessman John Giroux loves Loveland, and wanted to showcase the things that make it a special place. In late 2009 he decided, with 2010 approaching, that the new year would be a great time to showcase the people, places and things that make The Sweetheart City great. He turned to friends and associates from the community and set about creating Loveland 365, a year-long project to find and share compelling stories and images from Loveland with the world.

 

The goal of the project is to focus on one thing a day in Loveland – a story, image or interview – and feature it on the Loveland 365 website, www.Loveland365.com, and a book. Many local residents might have their own well-known favorites in Loveland, and Loveland 365 also hopes to share information about lesser-known local stories that residents think are important.

 

When purchasing books online, simply select a Loveland non-profit from the provided list, and that non-profit gets the proceeds from your purchase. Easy!
