Schools and Fundraising
Schools would have enough funds to make fundraisers unnecessary in a perfect world. Unfortunately, in most cases, extracurricular programs must fundraise. School programs should strategize a complete fundraising agenda, and Fund-Team.com could be a significant part of this package.
To create the most effective fundraising plan, incorporate activities related to the team or club into the fundraising plan, utilize online fundraising programs, establish goals for each project, and include appealing prizes.
Relate Fundraising to the Program
A tie-in can enhance the results of the program’s fundraising efforts. When the goal relates to the activity, it also encourages greater participation. Bands should promote musical fundraisers; sports team fundraisers should be athletic; dance teams should focus on dance; and so forth.
Utilize Online Fundraising Measures
Online fundraising is the future of fundraising. Fund-Team.com offers a platform for online donations that requires only that students enter the emails of family members and friends. We then send custom emails featuring the full name and photo of the student to these potential supporters.
The program also sends individual links to the students to post on their social media pages and a team link to post to its social media pages. Registering for participation requires about 10 minutes, and email reminders are automatic. The effort required is minimal, and your team can retain most of the donations received.
Supporters can make donations through credit/debit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. As donations come in, we notify students of the donation and provide them with a prompt to encourage them to send thank you messages. We charge only a 5% commission and give you your money faster than our competitors. After credit card processing fees of about 3% charged by the payment processors, our clients keep at least 92% of the donations.
Establish Goals for Fundraising Efforts
By establishing goals for your fundraising, your team will know when it has succeeded! Having a definable goal provides encouragement, accountability, and motivation. Defining the expenses your club or team anticipates will help ensure your goal is reached. Fund-Team.com participants generally raise $300 per student, and we are the #1 online fundraiser for teams.
Choose Appealing Prizes
When fundraisers are fun, convenient, or offer prizes that students want, students are more likely to give their best efforts. Appealing prizes will increase participation, and these prizes don’t have to be expensive. Team-related merch and gift cards are a few of the prizes you can choose. Fund-Team.com is one of the best fundraising platforms for schools.
