The idea

A pack of cards, a hot meal, and a receipt for both.

In late 2023, two of our community fundraisers walked into a board meeting with a sealed Scarlet & Violet booster, a stack of receipts, and a question: what if we sold packs at fair retail and put 100% of profit into hot meals? The board approved a six-month pilot. The pilot did not stay a pilot.

Every pack we sell is sourced through licensed distributors never grey-market at distributor pricing. We ship at fair retail. The margin between distributor cost and retail price (less only payment processing and shipping at cost) goes 100% to our Hot Meals program. Not 80%. Not "after costs". One hundred percent of margin. Per pack. Per drop. Tracked, line by line.

Every pack ships with a card showing the exact dollar amount that gift contributed to meals calculated from the unit margin, not estimated. Scan the QR on the back and you'll see the specific kitchen, on the specific date, that received your contribution.

How a drop works

From distributor to dinner table, in nine steps.

01
SOURCE

Licensed distributor only.

Inventory is purchased from one of three licensed Pokémon distributors at standard distributor pricing. Purchase orders, invoices and chain-of-custody documents are kept on file and disclosed on request.

Distributors3 · all licensed
02
FULFILMENT

Texas warehouse · cased.

Every drop ships out of our fulfilment partner in Texas. Packs leave their factory case for the first time in your hands. We do not handle, sort or single out packs at any stage.

Sealed100% factory-cased
03
PRICING

Fair retail · no markup.

We sell at the same retail price as a brick-and-mortar shop. We do not charge a "charity premium". The margin to program comes from our being a non-profit, not from inflating the sticker.

Markup vs MSRP0%
04
RECEIPT

Per-pack ledger entry.

Every pack ships with a unique ledger ID. Scan the QR code on the receipt card and you'll see the kitchen, the date, and the meal count your specific pack funded.

Traceability1 pack → 1 entry
05
DISBURSEMENT

Margin → Hot Meals · weekly.

The drop's running margin is wired weekly from our merchandise account into the Hot Meals program account. The reconciliation is part of the daily treasury sign-off.
