Initially, I saw some bad reviews and thought that this platform, Raise, took too much money from the kids who fundraise. Since then, I've been able to send a link to my ain't in Puerto Rico to be able to support my niece. My in laws who are five hours away asked for thr link to donate. I wanted a copy of my reciept and someone sent it to me almost immediately by email. If this was a fundraiser of chocolate, like when I was a kid, all the chocolate would get eaten and my parents would end up paying for the box. The percentage they take well exceeds the amount of cash in hand that these kids would otherwise gather. Keeps everyone honest too. Amazing platform, well designed, interactive. Love it!

Another scam company that takes advantage of school kids to help raise money and email every known relative, then the scoop up 20% of the total money raised.
So if a football team has 80 players
With a goal of 2,000.00 each then that is 160,000.00, then they only take 32,000.00 are you fricken kidding me.

It’s software that auto emails and links to an account to add funds and somehow all these companies between the money scams and the candy sales is juts ridiculous.

The schools tied to people like this have made every school kid a beggar for cash for the school and the 3rd party leach attached to the school.

I used Snap Raise for many years, so I can speak on my personal experience. To start, Snap Raise is extremely overpriced!! They charge 20% of the total amount of donations a team receives, but conveniently don't mention this to the donors. Sure, their platform works, but there are many other platforms that can accomplish the same goal for a fraction of the fee. When I brought this up, as a loyal customer of many years, their rebuttal was that "other platforms don't raise as much", even though my colleagues and coaches of other teams referred me to other companies that helped them raise and keep more (they also had previously used Snap Raise). At the end of the day, it now appears to me, customers (teams,schools, coaches, athletes, students, booster clubs) are paying a high percentage for snap raise to be able to afford their aggressive sales rep force and high overhead as a company. Where other companies have a software that can manage a fundraiser and some with a dedicated campaign director to help you set things up, Snap Raise was very aggressive in trying to sell me on their platform and other offerings. Truth is, with a good platform, many of the tasks can be done without their sales rep. We would raise over $20k over year and pay snap raise over $4k to have their rep essentially duplicate our donation page every year and not much else. In the first few years of using their software, we would have a rep, but the last year I used them we didn't even get that, it was all automated, yet we paid the same 20% fee. The more you raise the more you pay for the same amount of work. I used to be a big fan, but now in hindsight I realize that this is a money hungry company hiding being the premise that they are doing right by youth athletics. Let's not even get started about their extreme spam tactics. Me as a coach, my players, and donors would not stop getting emails from snap even months after the campaign was over. Never again

Do NOT use this organization! They are a scam and a fraud. My sons football team used them. Hundreds of products (hoodies, t shirts, etc) were purchased by donors for the specific team members but none of the team members received the items that were purchased for them Because the people at Snap did not do their job and communicate. Snap sent a box of gear to the school with no instructions, no heads up that it was coming. Snap simply bullies the kids, takes their cut and then screws the kids and donors in the end! Inexcusable!

Effective organization for raising money for grandchildren’s High school football team but once their personal goal has been met solicitations continue in spite of effort to ‘unsubscribe’ and child’s ’ goal long since reached. 25% commission continues...
