On September 12, 2013 – TeamFund made it’s first sale.

Today marks TEN years of helping groups raise the money they need with easy

food fundraisers for schools, sports, non-profits, and more. 

Thank you for being here!

Fundraising has changed a lot in the last 10 years. When TeamFund started with a mission of making fundraising easier, we didn’t realize just how much hard work it would be. At the same time, it has been an incredibly rewarding journey and we couldn’t have done it without you. 

TeamFund’s Journey to Making Fundraising Easy

Dominique Fraser, TeamFund

Our founder, Dominique Fraser, is an outdoor enthusiast, volunteer, and mom. Not only does she pour passion into TeamFund, but she loves to get involved in the community in her spare time: whether it’s joining a choir or mentoring other entrepreneurs. 

TeamFund started out of a need for fundraising for Dominique’s own children.

Seeking options that supporters actually wanted to buy and were profitable for groups.

Everyone needs to stock their fridges and freezers – so if you’re going to buy meat in bulk at Costco anyway – why not support your kids’ school or sports team at the same time?

While novelty foods like popcorn and chocolate bars can be good once in a while…

Food fundraisers are so powerful because they are repeatable.

That’s why 80% of groups who try TeamFund return twice yearly as a consistent fundraising STRATEGY for their group.

That’s because our fundraisers are not just one-off fundraising products but practical food that supporters are happy to purchase a couple of times a year (and avoid guilt for the half-used, expired coupon book still sitting in the back of their car).

However, finding the best fundraising product was only half of the solution.

Now that we have a practical fundraising option – How can we take this and make it as easy as possible? That’s where online fundraising comes in.

 

Over the last 10 years, TeamFund has been optimizing our online fundraising platform.

We have worked with thousands of teams, growing our team along the way too! 

Our team has grown from a startup in a small bonus room to hiring dedicated people to help manage the day-to-day operations, oversee deliveries and help with support along the way. 

We have all worked remotely since day one, because we all have families and that matters.

Did you know we used to have a 1-800 number?

We’ve adapted a lot over the years to the shifting sands of technology. Unlimited phone minutes and data!? Who would have known what was coming…

We have so many online tools to support your fundraisers.

These tools save fundraising coordinators and organizers hours of spreadsheet work, chasing payments, and more.

    • Supporters shop online from any device, and the store is easily shareable.
    • To make it even more fun and give back, we track profits per player.
    • View your reports at any time to keep an eye on your results
    • Social media and email templates to help you spread the word

Profit tracking is not only a great way to motivate your fundraising team in some friendly competition, but it can also be used a tool to give back and split profits to help offset athlete fees or school trip costs.

TeamFund Food Fundraisers Have Helped Raise Over $5 Million for Local Groups: Schools, Sports Teams, Clubs, and more.

 

We definitely could not have raised that much without local community groups LIKE YOURS who are helping create opportunities for youthmaking sports more affordablecreating outstanding citizens for the community, and achieving so many amazing things we couldn’t possibly list them all!

YOU deserve a cheers for that 🥂
