The quick version for admins
- We're part of the CTPA & EPCNT co-ops, via vendor approval through Grand Prairie ISD
- You'll never write us a check. No deposit, no minimums, nothing from your program, school, district or booster account
- Our fee comes from event proceeds only, and is capped. We take on all the risk
- Day-of auction winnings qualify as a one-day, tax-free sale under Texas Comptroller rules (auctions are not required, but highly recommended)
- Raffles only through a booster club. No booster club, no raffle
No money ever comes out of your budget
Our fee is paid from event proceeds only, and capped. If you take in mostly cash, you settle from what you're already holding. Either way, you never write us a check.
It pays for your students' two 2-hour improv workshops. No deposit and nothing out of your budget.
Your program keeps 70%, until our max fee amount is reached.
Once the max fee is reached, every dollar is yours. That's up to 80% profit, or more.
The amount kept to cover workshops will be higher for "School vs. School vs. Pros" shows, however it will be less per school and still only comes out of the event proceeds, not your budget.
What our partners are saying
Real organizations, in their own words.
"We raised over $11,000 for Habitat for Humanity from our small church of 80 members! They are excellent to work with and help answer any questions along the way."
"They walked me through every step with patience and grace. We all loved how the kids really got into it. We laughed hard and made some money. Our budget is healthy again!"
"You made this fundraiser so easy for us with your professional work. We had a sold-out event and you were amazing at encouraging the bidders. We exceeded our goal by almost double!"
"Tons of laughs whether we were preparing or enjoying the show! I would 1,000% recommend ZingerZ Comedy for fundraising. They did a fantastic job!"
"ZingerZ did a great job! They were very helpful and provided so many hints & tips that were super beneficial to our organization!"
"Your auction skills were fantastic and extremely funny. You encouraged bidding to go above value in several instances. Thank you for being a major part of our evening."

Our agreement, in plain English.
If you can't always follow legalese without a lawyer, you're not alone. So we broke down every section of our Theatre FUNdraiser Agreement into plain English. It isn't legally binding or legal advice, just a tool to help your team understand it.
We provide a turn-key process, an online storefront for all card transactions, our professional show co-starring your students, and two student workshops. Your school sells tickets, takes donations, finds sponsors, and follows our advice. Questions? Call (817) 609-1715.
Ways to raise, and the rules we follow
The fundraiser options in our agreement, plus the concerns schools ask us about most.
What is a clean comedy fundraiser?
A clean comedy fundraiser is a family-friendly live show event that throws everything but the kitchen sink into one night, raising as much money for your cause as possible in a variety of ways: tickets, sponsors, auctions, raffle, and more! We bring the show, the ticketing, and the playbook. You keep at least 50% of every dollar that comes through the door.
The stuff everyone asks
Will this ever come out of our school's budget?
Are you an approved vendor?
Do we have to collect sales tax on auctions?
Who owns the event, and is it recorded?
Clean comedy fundraisers that raise $5,000+ in a single night, with a 50% profit minimum, guaranteed.
