Charity Auction by IDonateTocharity.org

When you think of cool school fundraisers, the first thing that comes to mind is popcorn sales, silent auctions, cookie dough etc. These are all great fundraisers but the only problem, the school only makes a small percent on each sale. Another problem, people don’t really like the products the students are selling.

What IDonateToCharity.org came up with, was a “classroom fundraiser”. Classroom fundraisers make it easy for any school to run a successful fundraiser that is both easy to run with very little administrative work and fun for everyone.

How these cool classroom fundraisers work, each classroom opens a donation page through the IDonateToCharity.org website. A donation page is just a page that makes it easy to collect money and have tax receipts automatically generated eliminating any administrative work. After each teacher opens a donation page, they will be given a link to that page. From there, they can put that link on a flyer to have the students hand out to friends and family. This link can be emailed to anyone in the world so each student is not limited to only making sales in the area. Friends and family from all over can support the classroom. When someone makes a donation to the classroom, the money is automatically deposited into the schools paypal account. The best part, anyone can donate as much or as little as they can afford. We have seen people donate as little as $1. There is no longer a reason not to donate.

From one location on IDonateToCharity.org, everyone can see in real time what classroom is winning and how much money was raised. These cool school fundraisers only run 7 to 10 days and the classroom that raises the most money wins. Most schools do something for the whole school but that is up to the administration and how they would like to structure the prizes. Usually it’s pizza or movie a day.

With this type of fundraiser, you will see a 200%-400% increase in the money raised from the traditional school fundraisers.

When a school decides to run this type of fundraiser, they are given a FREE fundraising consultant to get them set up and make sure everything runs smooth.
