HOW OUR FUNDRAISER WORKS FOR SCHOOLS
You Make Money When People Shop at Local Businesses
Your Boosters Shop At Local Businesses
Local Businesses Send You Money
Students, parents, and teachers can suggest local businesses to be on the program. Funders For Schools will contact those local businesses and invite them to join. Businesses can also join on their own.
Funders For Schools sets up the program and provides all digital materials.
Your booster club distributes the cards. These cards include instructions on how to use them as well as the list of participating businesses. Cards are available in digital format only (email/text).
The Funders for Schools card gets shoppers a 5% discount at participating businesses. When you shop at a business listed on the card, write down the school number and student activity number on the receipt. Then have the cashier sign the receipt.
Use your phone to take a picture of the receipt and text that picture to Funders for Schools. The card shows the school number and student activity number as well as the number to send the text message. You can also send receipts by email or postal mail.

There’s nothing for you to manage as Funders For Schools does all of the heavy lifting for you. You save money and your child’s school activity earns money.
No door to door sales!
Actually, there is nothing to sell!
There are no products for you to manage, order, or deliver! Nothing can get lost. There’s no food that expires. No disputes or wait times for delivery.
No touching or direct interaction with people!
No risk to your students or children.
Covid 19 safe!
Social distancing is built into this fundraising idea.
Nothing to Buy; Nothing to Sell
No bake sales. No candy or knick-knacks to sell. No inventory to keep track of or lose. Leave commerce to local businesses so that your students can focus on the student activities that they find fun and fulfilling.
