College Fundraising Made SIMPLE: How We Work

Let's face it. Nobody likes to do a fundraiser.

There are hundreds of more interesting things that you can do with your group. You've got rush events, tournaments to play in, meals to eat, more parties to plan, formals, practice, and maybe some occasional homework or classes to attend.

But reality sets in at some point. There has to be a way to pay for these activities.

That's where we come in.

We here at CampusFundraiser are experts in college fundraising. We've been doing it for years. In fact, chances are that groups on your campus - even someone that you know - has done a fundraiser with CampusFundraiser. Every semester, over 2,000 student groups achieve their financial goals with our proven fundraising solutions. Put simply, we are college fundraising.

We use a slogan that you may have seen: College Fundraising Made Simple.

It's something that we are very proud of, and it's what we have based our entire company around.

We know that most fundraisers are run by 1 or 4 or 5 key members of a group, typically an officer of the group such as the President, Treasurer, Philanthropy Chair, or some other similar name. We also know that most officers are only in their role for 1, or maybe two semesters. That brings up a major problem with successful fundraising: Officers rarely have experience in running a successful fundraiser. By the time an officer runs a fundraiser, they are typically ready to move on to a new position, or graduate.

Again, it's CampusFundraiser to the rescue.

Because we have helped tens of thousands of groups reach their goals, we have learned a couple of things about college fundraising. We know the mistakes that every group leader makes, before the mistakes are made. Our research shows that the mistakes are typically made due to a lack of experience in running fundraisers, not because of a person's capabilities or motivation.

To make sure that our groups don't make those same mistakes, we provide a Fundraising Manager. A Fundraising Manager is a full-time employee of our company who coaches groups on how to fundraise successfully. It's all they do: from 9am through 10pm, they are helping student group leaders just like you reach their goals.

Think of your Fundraising Manager are a tough coach. Your coach cares for you, and wants you to reach your full potential. Your coach wants you to succeed. That's exactly how we do it. The sole job of a Fundraising Manager is to help groups earn a tremendous amount of money. They spend their time on the phone, or in person, providing coaching for groups so that you don't make those rookie mistakes that are the difference between earning $200 and earning $2,000.

Best of all, there's never a cost for working with CampusFundraiser. We provide a Fundraising Manager to every student group to ensure their success - at no cost, ever.

So that's what we mean by College Fundraising Made Simple. By working with your Fundraising Manager, and following their training, direction and advice, you will reach your financial goals.
