How We Build Community
We galvanize 4 elements of your community around your school to engage people and help you raise funds.
1. Local Chamber promotes local commerce
2. Local retailers and merchants gain new customers
3. Consumers receive discounts from local merchants
4. Your school generates revenue while expanding your reach into your community and engaging your students in the process
Everyone benefits on behalf of your school.
How it Works
FunDAZ is a self-contained and repeatable fundraising vehicle that uses a simple 4 step process.
1. We collect discounts from local retailers and merchants and post them on your free web site
2. Your school sells Discount Savings Cards which gives consumers access to the discounts
3. You sell your cards through several outlets: students, family, friends, sports teams, online
4. After a 3 to 4 week campaign, we write you a check for 50% of all proceeds
How Much Can We Make?
• Your cost : $ 0
• You sell your cards for $20 to $30 each, depending on the volume of merchants included in your program
