Welcome to Fundraising - Difficult but Essential

If you are a sports team then you know that you absolutely need to raise funds. Well, I’m working on creating the ultimate sports fundraiser. It’s going to embrace technology and will be able to raise a sports team more money than any of the other fundraisers I’ve found online. Here’s a few other aspects I think that teams should look for when raising funds for their sports team.

-No Risk
A sports team should not have to pay a bunch of money in order to make money. A fundraiser should allow the team to not have to have any money or risk any of their existing money in order to raise more funds. If you are spending money in already to raise money for your sports team then stop.

-Large Percentage to Sports Team
If you ask people to give money to support your team then your team should get as much of that money as possible. Everyone knows about this, but many are still doing fundraisers that only pay a percentage of the profits. That means the team takes home a very small percentage of what people are actually spending.

-Fund Raise Internationally (or at least nationally)
Don’t limit your players to raising funds locally. A fund raiser should be designed in a way that grandma across the country can support their grandson. The world’s becoming closer, but fund raising is still most often restricted to local fundraising.

-Choose a Sustainable Fundraiser
Each and every year a team needs to raise funds. Don’t choose a fund raiser that requires you to start from square one again next year. Select a fund raiser that is sustainable and builds bigger and bigger each year.

There’s plenty more, but if you don’t have a fund raiser like this then you need to keep looking. Although, you don’t have to look that far. Just leave a comment or email me at fundraiseopp at crashutah dot com (yes, I had to write it like that to try and prevent spam).
