Part of gearing up for high school baseball is preparing for team fundraisers, and Fund-Team.com offers an easy method of fundraising that can be incorporated into a larger plan or relied upon as the sole money-raising venture for the team.
Uniforms, batting cages, pitching machines, transportation, league fees, and equipment to participate in the sport of baseball cost quite a bit, and the budget provided by the school will probably fall short of covering it all. As students work hard to improve their skills in the game, they'll find that Fund-Team.com makes it easier to fundraise, allowing them to continue focusing on their love of the game.
Digital fundraising is the way of the future. It allows teams to raise the funds they need without handling cash or having potentially dangerous in-person interactions. Fund-Team.com provides a platform that is 100% web-based and doesn’t require any downloads.
Team members need to collect family members' and friends' email addressesor phone numbers (for texting) and share the links we provide via social media. Aside from the ball field, the phone is the most comfortable place for most teens; our fundraising platform leverages this fact.
Online fundraising protects students from potential dangers and helps the team collect more funds to support their activities. Even if the team has a specific fundraiser that the community expects it to offer, adding a Fund-Team.com-driven donation drive is so easy that a team would be wise to pursue it along with the traditionally anticipated fundraiser.
Digital Baseball-Themed Fundraising
Leveraging the "World Wide Web" for fundraising efforts makes sense in a world where just about everything has an online component. Your team can integrate digital fundraising in several ways.
From influencers to vintage rock bands, wearing your support is popular today. Consider providing team supporters with opportunities to purchase online swag decorated with the team's name, mascot, or slogan. You could even have a social media contest to come up with the design!
Another option for an online fundraiser is to hold a virtual pledge campaign. Team members could request donations for every lap run, ball hit, or pitch thrown.
Fund-Team.com and other donation campaign websites allow teams to host virtual donation drives. Rather than selling products that nobody wants and that cost too much, supporters can easily give a direct donation. The process is simple as well. Team members enter the email addresses or phone numbers of potential donors, and our system sends emails to request donations. Text messages are sent directly by the student from their phone.
We also provide a unique link for students to share on their social media and a general link for the campaign manager to share on the team's social media. When contacts click these links, they can make donations quickly and easily.
The donations made through Fund-Team.com can be made using a debit/credit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, or Google Pay, and a processing fee of about 3% will be kept by those processors. Since our commission is 5%, our clients keep about 92% of the donations collected! Compare this figure to the 20% commission other virtual donation campaign platforms charge.
Once donations are made, we send a notification and a suggestion to send a thank-you note to the donor as quickly as possible.
