Are you looking to shake up your choir fundraising with some exciting ideas? Fund-Team.com provides a completely website-based platform for implementing a donation campaign that can stand alone as a single fundraiser or play a role as part of a larger fundraising package.
Choirs need the surrounding community's support to cover the expenses related to travel, performance, rehearsal, and competition. When you register for a virtual donation campaign facilitated by Fund-Team.com, you’ll have a space that promotes the safety and effectiveness of your efforts.
Let’s consider a few other fundraising ideas for choirs to contemplate.
Fundraising Event - Choirs sing. Why not put on a performance, charge admission, and use those funds to pay for the group's needs? The event can include a raffle or sponsorships, and the choir could even work with the rest of the school's fine arts department to put on an entire evening of entertainment and artistic display.
Choir Merch - How often do you go to a music concert without buying a T-shirt? Why not create merch for the choir that supporters can purchase at events, from choir members, or from an online store?
Once you've decided to organize a choir fundraising event, you'll need to begin planning. Planning well will determine how successful your efforts will be.
First, establish a goal. Consider anticipated costs that the choir faces alongside the shortfall from the budget provided by the school. The event’s take should also cover the cost of the event itself. Fortunately, school choirs can often partner with other clubs to host joint fundraising events and mitigate much of the costs.
Our Online Donation Platform
A donation platform like Fund-Team.com adds an effective and nearly effortless avenue for raising funds. Organizations that fail to pay attention to this great tool will miss out on a high return on their time investment. Campaigns with Fund-Team.com, for instance, regularly result in an average of $300 per student in funds raised.
We provide avenues for individual choir members and the choir as a group to request support from family members, friends, and community members.
Raising funds online takes less effort and up-front cash, and virtual interactions are often more comfortable for teens. An online donation campaign is also safer, with no doors to knock on, cash to handle, or products to sell.
The program works in a few different ways:
- The campaign organizer signs up the choir for a campaign, schedules a sign-up meeting, and instructs choir members to gather email addresses and phone numbers of potential supporters.
- During the sign-up meeting, choir members will enter the email addresses and phone numbers and be provided a unique link to share on their individual social media feeds.
- We also provide the campaign manager a link to share via the choir’s social media page.
Fund-Team.com allows organizers to keep much more of the donations they raise than other virtual donation platforms. Most other companies take 20% of the total donations, but we charge only 5%. After factoring in the approximate 3% fee for donation credit card processing, your choir will receive about 92% of the donations made.
