Any parent with a child involved in sports, academics, clubs, groups, or any number of organized activities can relate to the benefits as well as the challenges of fundraising activities.
Raising money for uniforms, equipment, travel, supplies, and other needs can be a tedious and daunting task, to say the least. After years of countless fundraising projects of our own (selling donuts, washing cars, peddling coupon books, etc.), we decided there had to be a better way. No parent likes having to send their kids door to door to push these unwanted products. But what else could we do? Then, the idea of OurFund was born.
There’s more to a team sport than what happens out on the field or court. Practice and preparation are crucial, as is making sure that your team is properly equipped financially to meet all your players’ needs. Costs continue to rise, but OurFund provides the tools to help you raise money without breaking a sweat.
There always seems to be another need…a new instrument, special supplies or materials, travel expenses for an away competition or gathering, etc. It takes more than just participation when part of a group, so let OurFund’s fundraising platform help you raise the money your organization needs to stay involved.
Trying to find the right way to get the word out about your special cheer, dance, or gymnastics squad? Hoping to raise enough money to go to nationals, competitions, or buy equipment and uniforms? OurFund can help make your fundraising efforts easy so you focus on what’s most important – your squad.
We are just getting started with Ourfund and have been pleased with the results. It is a very efficient fundraiser in regards to time spent and the amount of money we are able to raise. We will continue with Ourfund for 2019 and beyond.
We have used Ourfund as our primary fundraiser for the last 6 years. At first I was skeptical of the simplicity of it, but in fact it has been really easy for us to participate in and beneficial to our program. If an issue comes up, Tom handles it immediately regardless of how minor it is. The best part of Ourfund is that it has allowed me to just coach and not have to worry about raising money.
OurFund has been an annual fundraiser for Lee County Football for the last 6 years, and it has helped us raise over $135,000 to use for our program. Knowing that our financial house is in order off of the field allows myself and my coaching staff to focus on on-field issues and strategies. I could not ask for a better partner than OurFund!
