Givealittle for Schools
*Stats are from FY2023
We’ve seen everything from colour runs to read-a-thons to basic-fact-a-thons and more. Schools have used Givealittle to fundraise for their literacy programmes, learning equipment, improvements to outdoor learning areas - the list goes on! Want to know more or read a real-use case study? Check out our Generosity Report for FY2023 or get in touch with us.
On Givealittle, the majority of school campaigns we see fundraise are by classroom; with each of these campaigns creating several pages (one for each classroom) for any single campaign. These classroom-led campaigns generally lead up to an in-school event, like a kid-sized triathlon. That being said, the beauty of Givealittle is its versatility, and we’re also a platform for some schools’ annual campaigns, where they use a simple structure involving only one Givealittle page which people can donate to.
Schools; like businesses have an excellent platform for fundraising, as they have already-existing networks. This means the time and effort can go towards the event itself- planning, and comms to parents, grandies, PTA’s, you name it. What's more, we have the lowest school fundraising fees around; it's a flat 5% based on the amount you raise, and that's it. There's zero cost to register, and no obligations if you do.
Thinking about your next school campaign? Start planning!
In September 2024, we released the Generosity Generator Masterclass - a free, online video course which teaches the fundamentals of crowdfunding. It was created for charities, however is very beneficial for school fundraising as well, since many of the same rules apply. We know you're short on time, so it was created with busy people in mind and takes about 2.5 hours to complete. What's more, it's hosted by a fundraising professional! If you have time to plan your campaign, we highly recommend starting here. Want to learn more or enrol click the banner below.

Our goal is to make your school fundraising experience as easy as possible, and we have several helpful tools commonly used by schools that make fundraising easy:
- Donation Tags - an extra field that can be added to a donation screen, which tags a donation to something or someone specific; which the page owner can tally up. For example, tagging your donation with a student’s name.
- Landing Pages - large format pages that gather together an unlimited number of Givealittle pages and display them on one screen. For schools, this is beneficial as they often have more than a dozen classrooms fundraising.
- One-on-one customer support - our customer care team offer one one-on-one support to get each campaign up and running, and we help tailor the best setup for the event, and there is no extra charge for extra help!
- Detailed reporting - Easily track or calculate how much each student has raised, or if you're fundraising by classroom/student, we make this easy. Want to do a mailout to say thanks to parents and grandies who donated? You can access your donor database anytime.
