The 5 Biggest Mistakes I Made as a Sports Parent and How You Can Avoid Them!

Easy Fundraising for Parents, Coaches, Teams, and Leagues

July 1, 2015 by Janis

What is one of the biggest hassles of being involved in youth sports?

FUNDRAISING!

That’s why I am proud to partner with FlipGive, a fundraising program that provides youth sports teams, associations, and athletes with a fast, easy, and free way to raise money by shopping online!

Having been a sports mom for 21 years, I was involved with many  fundraising campaigns; I know what a pain it is to come up with new and creative ideas that actually work. I am partnering with FlipGive because they provide an easy and free opportunity for teams and associations to raise funds.  It works like this:

  • You assign an administrator to set up the campaign on FlipGive (literally takes under 5 minutes)
  • You build a fundraising team by email (fundraising team members can be parents, players, association members, coaches, trainers, managers etc.)
  • You use the templates provided to send emails to your supporters, or publish the link directly to Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn
  • The link takes you to your fundraising page and all you or your supporters have left to do is shop!

Why do I love FlipGive?

  • Raise 5X More – Earn up to 50% on every purchase and reach people online no matter where they live. (You just shop, and a % of the money spent goes directly back to your team)
  • Sell Things People Want – Invite family and friends to shop online with brands and retailers like Shop.ca, Under Armour, Starbucks, and ALDO and more ~ Brands that sports parents are buying anyway.
  • Fast & Easy Fundraising – No money to collect, forms to fill out, or products to distribute!

This is honestly the easiest fundraising platform I’ve seen, and I will be starting a campaign for a great charity next week!

Get started--it's free

    It works well only if you are well networked.

      Actually, FlipGive has a large network of merchants for campaigns to draw from. If your team is trying to raise money, they can all shop through Flipgive and a percentage of their purchases will be donated to the team. It works really quite well and it’s very easy!
