A New Era in Sports Fundraising: Schoolfundr and NAS Unite to Transform the Game

Schoolfundr Selected As Official Fundraising Platform of National Amateur Sports (NAS) and Member School Districts

‍

Saint Paul, Minnesota – Schoolfundr, the leading purpose-built K-12 fundraising platform, announced its partnership with National Amateur Sports (NAS). NAS is a sports marketing and media company that represents over 300 high schools and middle schools across 13 school districts in North and South Carolina.

‍

The partnership empowers NAS partner schools to leverage Schoolfundr's innovative fundraising solutions, enabling them to raise funds efficiently while retaining 100% of the proceeds after standard credit card fees.

‍

“Selecting Schoolfundr as our official fundraising platform delivers a great option for our partner schools in the ever-changing fundraising industry. Not only is Schoolfundr a feature rich platform but it also lets you keep everything you raise besides standard credit card fees” said James Shipley, CEO of National Amateur Sports. “Many other school fundraising software providers take up to 20% or more of the funds raised by their school. I can’t think of a better way to deliver on our mission of building a sustainable solution for public school athletics programs.”

‍

“Our goal is to empower every school in the country to raise more funds and keep what they raise'' Added Dennis Levene, CEO of Schoolfundr. “It is humbling to be selected by NAS to be their official fundraising platform, and a true testament to our shared visions for providing schools with best in class technology without charging fees. We are excited to see our platform enable NAS partner schools to raise more than ever before and keep what they raise.” 

‍

NAS chose Schoolfundr as its official fundraising platform following a successful pilot rollout in the Charlotte Mecklenburg and Winston-Salem school districts. The pilot program's overwhelming success helps to affirm the significant impact Schoolfundr will have on NAS partner athletic directors, schools, and students.

‍

Lori DeMarcus, Athletic Director at Hough High School in Cornelius, North Carolina shared "Schoolfundr has been instrumental in supporting our school's programs, with 6 teams already raising over $42,000 dollars to cover expenses such as new uniforms, equipment, travel expenses, and general program costs.  The Schoolfundr platform has been a game-changer for us because it is easy to use, has great features, and allows everything we raise to go directly to support our student athletes. I am recommending all of my winter and spring coaches run a Schoolfundr fundraiser this year. 

‍

John Sullivan, District Athletic Director at Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools, added. "We're thrilled with our experience with Schoolfundr and recommended all  12 high schools in our district to use their fundraising platform. Having access to top-tier feature rich fundraising tools where we retain 100% of raised funds will undoubtedly benefit our schools immensely. I think every school in the country should use Schoolfundr.”
