Rush Fest Is Back!
Easy Ways to Raise Money for Your Team
A little fundraising can go a long way toward making an unforgettable Rush Fest experience possible for your team. We put together a few easy ways to start raising money to help make the trip more affordable for your players and families!
Idea 1
RaiseRight is a free fundraising program that lets you earn up to 30% back as you shop, dine, or travel. Teams in the past have fully funded their trip to Rush Fest using this platform alone! RaiseRight partners with hundreds of popular brands you know and love, including Walmart, Starbucks, and Nike. That means trips to the grocery store, grabbing coffee, buying new gear, or even booking a vacation can help your team get closer to Rush Fest.
Idea 2
Sometimes the easiest way to raise money is simply to ask your community to be part of the journey. Platforms like Givebutter and GoFundMe make it easy to create a fundraising page for your team, set a goal, and share it with friends, family, alumni, and local supporters.
Tell people where your team is headed, why Rush Fest matters to your players, and what their support will help cover. We liked this idea so much we set up our own GiveButter account to help accept donations for individual players!
Idea 3
Your fundraiser doesn't have to happen entirely online. With a little more legwork you can bring your players and families together and turn fundraising into a team activity.
Try a:
- Restaurant fundraiser night
- Car wash
- Bake sale
- Youth soccer clinic
- Chili Cook-off
- Community yard sale
Choose something that works for your club, get the players involved, and make it fun.
