Fundraising ideas for high school students vary as widely as the students themselves. Fund-Team.com is an option for hosting a virtual donation campaign that integrates well with other fundraisers and is a lucrative means for generating funds directly, securely, and conveniently.
The Fund-Team.com platform is wholly website-dependent. No one has to download an app; it costs nothing to initiate a campaign and a mere 5% commission overall. An additional ~3% goes toward payment processing, leaving around 92% for the student organization.
Reasons for Fundraisers
Raising money for high school sports teams, interest-based organizations, academic clubs, and other student groups is a significant part of participation in these organizations. Instruments, equipment, dues, uniforms, transportation, and many other expenses make these critical experiences expensive, requiring fundraisers to cover the difference between the cost and the tiny provided budget.
Traditional fundraising works, but common fundraisers are often marked by great effort required with little payoff. Sales, events, services, and other fundraisers can require time that students don’t have, require danger for participants and supporters, and provide little of the profits made back to the student organizations. Fund-Team.com is a secure, convenient measure that provides for fundraising success.
Virtual donation campaigns through Fund-Team.com offer great outcomes. The national average for a donation drive we host equals $300 per student per campaign. Maximize the results seen by choosing Fund-Team.com and following a few key processes.
Make Fund-Team.com Drives Work for You
Establish a Timetable
When working a fundraiser, it's best to know how soon the money is needed and express that schedule to your supporters. If the loved ones receiving requests understand that the needs are urgent, they will feel a greater compulsion to give in more significant amounts.
Express a Purpose
How will the group use the money given? Supporters want to know that their contributions won't be squandered or misused in any way. Identify the goals and needs of the group and express those in the social media posts that participants and leaders make throughout the campaign. Add pictures, quotes, and other information to drive the need home.
Personalize the Requests
Customized requests are more likely to be received well. Fund-Team.com, for example, adds a picture and name to the emails sent requesting support so that loved ones can more readily associate the request with the asker. We also provide unique social media links to each student, and the posts' success will increase with personal messages included.
