This year, we are bringing back POPCORN! We are also introducing a new company for us here at CSTO! Fort Smith Popcorn Co. is a family-owned business out of Fort Smith, AR, so it’s more of a local company. Their popcorn is non-GMO, oil popped (coconut oil primarily), and uses real ingredients.

Here are some of the highlights of the fundraiser along with some important information:

  • Begin date: Friday, August 29, 2025

  • End date: Wednesday, September 17, 2025 (this is the day they will turn in forms and all checks/cash)

  • 50% profit

  • Collect money at time of order. Tell customer: Once popcorn is ordered, popcorn will be delivered to CST in about two weeks from order date. You will then pick up from CST and deliver to customer.

  • Donations are accepted year round (we make 100% profit off donations)

  • Checks, both fundraiser and donations, are made payable to: USD 233
