1. Fill out a Fiesta Fundraiser reservation form online, including date, time and location(s). You'll need your organization's Tax I.D. number.
2. We'll send an e-mail confirmation for your event, and a Fiesta Fundraiser Flyer customized just for you.
3. Advertise! E-mail and hand out flyers to everyone you know (and even a few people you don't).
4. Your charitable organization will get 20% of each sale when your flyer is presented to our cashier on the night of the event. Cowabunga! Relax and enjoy your evening at Rubio's knowing that you're making people happy and making money for your organization. Your big fundraiser check will arrive 4-6 weeks after the event. Almost as satisfying as catching the perfect wave!

20% of all sales (pre-tax) brought in by your organization will be donated directly to your organization. A check will be issued 4-6 weeks after your event.

When you use the online Reservation Form, it will display a calendar of available dates at the Rubio's you choose. We suggest Monday, Wednesday or Thursday evenings between 4-8 pm.

Host your fundraiser evening at any of our 170-plus locations. Use our online store locator to help you plan your fundraiser night. Larger organizations can choose up to three restaurant locations as long as the fundrasers are held at the same time on the same night.

You publicize your event ahead of time, by handing out flyers in person as well as via email. Your group brings their flyers with them, and presents them to the cashier when ordering. Flyers are required with each order to receive credit for the fundraiser. Flyers may not be distributed in or outside of Rubio's before or during your event. Thank you for understanding.

It's easy to ask people to come to Rubio's - they love it as much as a sunny day. They can feel good about the food they eat and the contribution they'll make, too. Rubio's has helped hundreds of organizations, and now yours can benefit from this simple program with generous rewards. See you at the fiesta.

After you've reserved your Fiesta Fundraiser online, take these steps to create the biggest turnout and largest donation to your cause.

• Put a flyer in your organization's newsletter.
• Announce your Rubio's Fiesta Fundraiser on your website, and add a link to a downloadable PDF of the flyer.
• Attach the flyer to an e-mail going out to the family, friends, office, etc.
• Call your local newspaper. They're always looking for information on charitable events in the community.
• Pass out flyers during the large gatherings, group meetings and area sporting events.
• Announce the fundraiser on the P.A. system at a local event.
• Promote your event a margue or bulletin.
• Pick up your customizable posters from the General Manager at Rubio's and post them in high visibility areas such as bulletin boards, kioks, entryways or break rooms, and other gathering areas.
• The General Manager at Rubio's can also give you colorful reminder stickers for kids to wear on the day of their event. They're great for shirts or backpacks.
• Most importantly, cast a wide net. Talk to everybody. There are plenty of fish in the sea. The more people that come to your Fiesta Fundraiser, the more money your fund-lovin' organization will earn. And don't worry if not everbody can come and stay for dinner. They can order take-out, too.
