Here’s a gift idea that benefits the whole school! Over 8,000 online retailers give away free donations you can put toward computing resources every time someone shops with them. Parents, staff and volunteers are picking up bargains or treating family and friends, so make sure they’re claiming free donations for your school while they shop. All you need to do is create your free easyfundraising account and ask your school community to sign up as your supporters. They’ll become your greatest fundraising asset, turning online spending into money to fund new computing equipment, resources, or whatever you see fit! What are you waiting for? It’s the most wonderful time to fundraise!
🎄 Ideal for: Schools and PTFA groups wanting to raise extra funds with minimal effort.
