These vendors are those that are recommended by chapters to utilize for fundraisers and other temporary/limited-time uses. In this instance, the chapter must submit basic vendor information to MPR and provide 40% of profits each time to HQ. This will also allow MPR to reach out to these businesses to pursue Preferred or Certified Vendor status. The application must be submitted by the vendor and approved by MPR.
These vendors are those that have an established business relationship with a chapter but the owner/manager of the business cannot accommodate the annual fee. These are vendors that provide Theta merchandise for special occasions or annual events, such as conferences, Redemption Night, and Kingdom Night Celebrations. In this instance, the chapter must compensate the standard annual fee ($100) OR have that vendor enlist as an Affiliate in order to continue business with that vendor. The application must be submitted by the vendor and approved by MPR.
