LEAGUE FUNDRAISER INFORMATION
Dear Parents/Guardians, This year, we are partnering with eTeamSponsor -the lowest cost fundraising option that raises the most amount of money in the least amount of time. The information below is designed to help you learn more about their system and how easy & effective it is.
We wanted to create an easy way to reduce registration costs/free with the potential to have 100% free registration.
WHAT DOES ETEAMSPONSOR DO?
They've created the most profitable way to raise funds in the least amount of time by leveraging text, social media, and email. eTeamSponsor’s fundraising system makes this easy by automating the process and effective by allowing your participant to personalize their donation request.
After a donor makes a contribution, they will receive an immediate acknowledgement and an automated personalized “thank you” from your participant three (3) days later.
eTeamSponsoris committed to and prioritizes compliance, privacy, and security. You can learn more below or visit https://www.eteamsponsor.com/privacy-policy/
WHY ARE WE USING ETEAMSPONSOR?
HOW WILL YOUR ATHLETE PARTICIPATE?
The Goal: Drive as many potential supporters as possible to your fundraising page, as seen in STEP 1 below. You get started by completing your PARTICIPANT INSTRUCTION FORM (emailed to you upon completion of registration), where you collect 20 potential supporters' contact information. Parents/Guardians help to provide the contact information for potential supporters, and shares on Facebook (and other social media platforms).
Best Practice: Think of potential supporters who live furthest away from your community first.
STEP 1 – Collect your best 20 Potential Supporters names, email addresses, phone numbers and their relationship to you. (the supporters WHO donate the most are listed in the Recommended column on the participation instructions form).
STEP 2 – Write down the contact information for your parents/guardian in the Family Share section including their mobile provider.
