Susan shares her perspective on TeamFund as a high-level soccer club organizer. Real families, relatable stories!

TeamFund Fundraising makes fundraising tasty, profitable, and easy.

I wanted something straightforward as the organizer but with a way to earn some real money for the team.

We have tried bottle drives in the past, but summer is a tough time for those. Many players are taking holidays, and so are the homeowners you are trying to collect from. It can work if you can catch people just after New Year’s Eve. However, you need to get there before they return their own empties.

If you do, you can make a decent amount of profit. However, for summer fundraisers, these are often just a way to eat up a lovely Saturday afternoon for 15 families.

If it’s not hot out there, then it’s probably raining. The kids dislike it, and so do their parents.  Ultimately, you may only raise a few hundred dollars for all your trouble.

There is also no way to quantify the effort you put in. We’ve been on bottle drives where my daughter works hard, hitting as many houses as possible. Another player on the soccer team was wandering around, looking in puddles and twirling down the sidewalk. She made it to about a quarter of the front doors that my daughter did, and when there were bottles to carry, she seemed to disappear. Ultimately, they shared in the profits equally because they had both been there for 4 hours.

As the organizer, I didn’t want all the hassle and frustration.

The summer is so short. For us, the outdoor soccer season is only in full swing for about 3-4 months. That means we have a short time to plan, organize, and execute a fundraising campaign.

So I wanted to find a way to raise funds in a short amount of time. Honestly, TeamFund couldn’t be a better fit for us.

While I volunteer for the soccer community, I am also a busy mom who volunteers at several community groups. As an organizer, I want it to be easy, but more importantly, as a seller, I NEED it to be.

One of the things I’ve always loved about TeamFund is how easy the process is.

From the first contact to collecting the profits, Dominique and her team make this the easiest fundraising you’ll do. So when I needed to organize our most recent fundraiser, I knew where to go.

All the fundraisers are run online. This means it’s cheaper, faster, and more environmentally friendly.

Not only do people lose forms or forget to hand them in but you are stuck chasing people for money and balancing the books at the end. It’s the worst part about organizing a fundraiser.

 

I love that TeamFund eliminates the paperwork headaches

You can still access paper forms for supporters who are not comfortable with computers. However, most people buy at the online store, and your organizer job is much simpler. You aren’t spending hours or days sorting through everything at the end.

We decided to run a meat fundraiser for my daughter’s soccer team.

Now that the snow is off the ground, people are starting to think about their BBQ.

People want to get outside, whether it’s a get-together with friends or a hot summer day.

That makes vendors like Spolumbo’s, Bow River Meats, and the popular Bacon fundraisers an easy sell to supporters. It’s also something our families want for themselves.

We purchased meat during the fundraiser and filled our freezer!

 

Meat is something most families buy at the grocery store anyway.  A portion of that sale helped support my daughter’s soccer. 

The meat from all of these vendors is top quality. In my opinion, it is frequently better and fresher than we find at our local grocery store provides. We had no problem convincing our friends and family to support us when selling meat from TeamFund vendors.

This is a less intimidating fundraiser for sellers because you don’t need to beg people to support you or talk them into it. Whether they buy one item or ten, you get the profits.

As the organizer, I loved that it was so easy.

 

My daughter had her entire tournament paid for.

  • hotel costs
  • tournament entry fees
  • and funds for team dinners and such
  • Of course, every player on the soccer team made sales. It was awesome to have this calculation done for us so that the profits were distributed fairly to those who earned them. There was no arguing and no frustration.

 

We had an amazing fundraiser, and now we have all summer to BBQ delicious meals. The money raised helped our team pay for the out-of-town tournament, and the girls got an amazing experience.

Your friends and family are already customers. They will be shopping for meat and you are missing out on the profits if you don’t run fundraisers.

It’s a win-win situation and now is the time to act.

With our amazing weather, people are ready to hear from you!

It’s real people, real profits, and TeamFund does the heavy lifting!
