As a band parent to a High School Senior *AND* as a long-time band board volunteer, I’ve been a part of and also run my share of fundraisers. From my time managing fundraising events to hours spent scouring the web for new opportunities, there are two things I can say for certain about fundraising:
1. It can feel like a full-time job…even as a volunteer
2. There’s no such thing as a no-risk, effort-free fundraiser….at least until now.
We ran the old “pen and paper” version of a Calendar Fundraiser only ONE TIME, and it became clear to me that there had to be a better way. Since my husband and I both work in the payments industry and because we saw a huge need for this service, we created the Buy The Day online calendar fundraiser. This tool combines the best of all things – a fundraiser that’s easy to explain to anyone, a platform that is simple to use (whether you’re a web newbie or an online guru), and a structure that takes all of the hassle and effort away from the organization leaders and volunteers and allows you to sit back and let us do the work.
If you’re looking for a better, easier, and more fun way to raise money for your organization, give us a shout and let us tell you what we’ve built.
