Less administrative work
Supporters place orders and pay online, eliminating the need for staff and volunteers to collect forms, track payments, or reconcile missing information.
For schools and school organizations
School fundraising that raises more with less work for staff and volunteers.
Launch a custom online spirit wear fundraiser for your school, PTO, club, classroom, band, or athletic program. Supporters order online, payments are handled automatically, and individually sorted orders make distribution simple.
Why it works
Why online apparel fundraisers outperform traditional fundraisers
Traditional school fundraisers often rely on paper forms, manual tracking, and volunteers managing piles of orders. An online spirit wear fundraiser simplifies the entire process while giving families an easy way to support your school.
More school-wide participation
Offer apparel parents, students, teachers, and alumni actually want to wear, helping your fundraiser reach beyond a single classroom or team.
Simpler order distribution
Individually sorted orders reduce hand-sorting time and make it easier to distribute items to students, families, and program leaders.
