Simple and Easy Fundraising
Fundraising no longer has to be a chore. With pre-designed fundraisers and a fundraising platform, you can obtain the funds you need to further your cause.
Steps to your Pre-Designed fundraiser
Register
Register with Fun-Raise USA and receive your fundraising account and fundraising webpage, along with several other fundraising resources.
Establish a quick plan to reach your fundraising goal
Once your webpage, automated phone service and fundraiser has been established, it is important to formulate a quick fundraising plan, for instance a mass text campaign, in order to reach the fundraising goal that you set. Always set high but reasonable goals in order to maximize on your efforts.
Promote your campaign and reach out to your supporters
Promoting and informing your supporters is the key to becoming successful in fundraising. Send out your webpage link by text or email and utilize social media to make people aware of your fundraiser.
Receive your earnings and the products purchased during the fundraiser
Once your supporters begin to order from your Fun-Raise USA webpage or automated phone line, the monies go into your fundraising account and transferred into your bank account. Fun-Raise USA also ships you the products that were purchased by your supporters during your fundraiser. The fundraising orders of the supporters will be shipped to the fundraising party.
Distribute products sold during the fundraiser
After you have made the funds that you had set out to make, it is extremely important to make sure that your supporters receive the products that they purchased. This increases the chance of future support.
All fundraising items purchased by supporters will be delivered to the fundraising party on Tuesdays and Fridays of every week. (Excluding national holidays)

Less time involved
Fundraising through the Fun-Raise USA platform allows you more time to focus on your day-to-day tasks, while generating funds for your cause.
How your fundraising funds are earned
Fun-Raise USA does the majority of the labor for you, your fundraising webpage displays and sells products to your supporters on your behalf. The platform then allows the transaction to take place between you and your supporters. Afterward, we take care of the ordering, processing and shipping of the products purchased through the fundraiser. The platform will also collect and process any donations given to your cause.
To support your fundraising cause, your supporters purchase items from your fundraising webpage. Each time a supporter supports the fundraiser by purchasing an item, your fundraiser will earn a base amount on that product with the ability to increase your earnings through the "Support Booster."
WHAT IS A "SUPPORT BOOSTER"?
"Support Boosters" are extra monies that are generated, on your behalf, in addition to the items being fundraised. Once a supporter decides on a product from your fundraising webpage, Fun-Raise USA gives them the option to select a "Support Booster". A "Support Booster" adds more value to the fundraiser by increasing the monies being contributed toward the cause. Basically, the "Support Booster" encourages supporters to give additional funds, increasing your ability to reach your fundraising goal.
An Example of How it Works:
When fundraising items, each item has a base amount that you can make on each product. For instance, when the base price (what you earn) is $3.00 on an item, each time an item is purchased, the minimum you will receive is $3.00. As your "Support Boosters" increase, so does your base price.
Once a supporter decides to make a purchase of an item, Fun-Raise USA gives the supporter the option to choose a "Support Booster," which allows them to add a small donation on top of the purchase. The more monies you earn from the "Support Booster," the bigger your base amount becomes. (See example below)
EXAMPLE OF A FUN-RAISE USA FUNDRAISER WITH A $3.00 BASE AMOUNT:
*$3.00 Base when you receive a Support Booster of $0.00.* (No transaction fee)
*$3.25 Base when you receive a Support Booster of $1.50 to $5.00.* (fees apply)
*$3.50 Base when you receive a Support Booster of $10.00.* (fees apply)
*$3.80 Base when you receive a Support Booster of $15.00.* (fees apply)
*$4.00 Base when you receive a Support Booster of $20.00.* (fees apply)
(Support Booster fees do not apply when no Support Booster is given toward your cause.)
When a supporter chooses a $5 "Support Booster", they have chosen to give an extra $5.00, on top of their purchase. In this case, the fundraising party will earn $8.25 from the purchase/donation. (Before applicable fees)
When you are fundraising items with a base earnings of $3.00, you have the potential to earn up to $24.00 from each item sold. (The average earned is $7.75 an item depending on the "Support Booster" contributions.) Each Fun-Raise USA fundraiser has different "Base Amounts" depending on the fundraiser being administered at that time.
*The Base Amount is the amount of funds that are made on each item purchased.*
If an item is purchased without a Support Booster, Fun-Raise USA grants the fundraising party $3.00 per item with no transaction fee.
*The fundraising commissions for each fundraiser will be listed under the tab "Current Fundraiser," at the top of the website, within the navigation menu.*

Managing your fundraiser
Easy Execution
Managing your fundraiser is simple and easy. As a fundraising party on the platform, you are given a fundraising account that allows you to monitor your fundraising earnings and the number of purchases/donations made. The account also gives you access to the Help and Resource Center, provides you with an on-line fundraising manual and grants you access to change or update your banking information to receive your fundraising earnings.
Purchases are made directly through your e-commerce fundraising webpage which eliminates hours of administrative paperwork.
After the purchase or donation is made, the monies go into your account and Fun-Raise USA delivers you the purchased products to distribute to your supporters. Once the fundraiser is complete, you will be able to access and operate the next fundraiser, which will immediately succeed each "current fundraiser".
