Fundraising for Cross Country Ski Equipment

One fundraiser that Banded Peak Society returns to every year is the Fill Your Freezer Fundraiser.

This fundraiser allows parents and community members to stock up on groceries they would likely be purchasing anyway, such as bacon, steaks, burgers, and more!

They often return in the Spring to take advantage of the excitement around BBQ Season.In return, the school earns an average of 20% on each sale.

This year, their biggest goal is to raise funds for new cross-country ski equipment!

The school loves the paperless process and ease of fundraising with TeamFund:

“Our school council found TeamFund to be very user-friendly and loved the fact that we didn’t have to handle any cash or worry about payments.  They are extremely supportive and walk you through every step of the process. The delivery went smoothly. It was the easiest fundraising we’ve ever done!  Will definitely be using them again”.

Solita, Past Chair, Friends of Banded Peak Society (2022/23)

TeamFund helps organizers avoid cash payments, easily share their fundraiser online, reduce fundraising fatigue, and access real-time reports to keep track of their progress.

In 2024, Rebecca took over the role and found the experience just as seamless as a new organizer:

“This is our third year having a TeamFund fundraiser. TeamFund makes the process easy and it doesn’t take much time or energy to organize and execute. It’s an easy fundraiser that makes a good profit, so it’s a no-brainer for us to continue working with TeamFund.”
