Your Walk-a-Thon can run on a free school fundraising platform with PledgeStar, when donors choose to help cover the costs.
Donors are given the option to cover platform and credit card fees. When enough do, your school keeps 100% of what's raised (and often ends up with $2,000-$3,000 extra). Other platforms keep the extra. We don't.
With PledgeStar, you keep everything. No tricks. No forced tips. Just a simple, transparent way to raise more, and pay less.
Bonus: It's Fully Transparent
Donors always know exactly what they're giving and why. If they want to help more, they can. If not, no pressure.
