Campaign pages, event-day giving, round-ups at every checkout, receipts that send themselves — fundraising that rides on everything your community already does.
Donations arrive through three apps, a cash box, and the treasurer’s inbox. Thank-yous go out when someone remembers. The board asks how the drive went and gets a shrug and a spreadsheet from last spring.
Gifts from campaign pages, checkouts, and event nights land in one place, tagged to the right campaign. Tax receipts and thank-yous send themselves. The board sees live numbers — because there’s finally one place to look.
Someone decides to give in the hallway, at the auction table, in the parking lot. If the ask takes a login and a clipboard, the moment closes. Raise puts a campaign page, a QR code, and an instant receipt inside that window — so the impulse becomes a gift, and the gift becomes a ledger line, before the night is over.
Goal, story, thermometer, share link. The library drive, the playground fund, the teacher-wishlist push — each one a page families actually want to share.
Paddle raises, sponsor-a-row, give-in-lieu when the night sells out. Built for gala season; works at any event Gather runs.
Packages, benefits, invoices, and the “presented by” — sell what your events already have, with paperwork a local business takes seriously.
At every checkout in the platform — tickets, spirit wear, concessions. Pennies a family never misses become a pipeline the school can plan on.
Tax receipts the moment the card clears. Thank-yous that sound like you. Year-end statements done before anyone asks.
The quiet $10-and-$25-a-month base that turns one good night into a steady year. It compounds while you sleep.
Every donor lands in the same Connect record as the ticket buyer and the volunteer — because they’re the same families. Raise sees the whole relationship, so the ask is never cold.
Most platforms make fundraising another job. Raise bolts it to the jobs already happening.
Every ticket and t-shirt sold through Gather offers a round-up or add-a-gift. No campaign required — the platform itself fundraises.
The showcase, the game night, the gala — the people who show up are the people who give. Raise puts the ask in the room, gracefully.
Receipts, thank-yous, statements, and the next invitation — handled. Donors who feel seen give again. Raise makes sure they’re seen.
Districts have development directors. Foundations have one or two people. Charters have whoever’s left after carpool. Raise is built for the second two.
Families want to help the school their kids love. Remove the friction and the paperwork, and they do — again and again.
One or two people moving real money for a whole district. Raise runs the gala giving, the campaigns, and every receipt behind them.
No development office, no problem. The platform fundraises in the background of the events and communication you’re already running.
The fun run, the auction basket, the spirit-wear margin — one ledger, clean handoffs, and a treasurer who finally sleeps.
Bring the drive you’re planning — or the one that flopped last year. We’ll build it live in twenty minutes, round-ups and receipts included.
