All digital pick-a-date calendar fundraiser

I have been an educator for 25+ years and I have always dreaded fundraisers. I hated asking my students to sell items, collect pledges and/or reach out to people to ask for money. We had a program created to take pick-a-date calendar fundraising to a whole new level by making it FULLY digital and making it the easiest fundraiser ever.

Our pick-a-date calendar fundraiser is VERY simple. Each participant will copy their unique calendar we custom design for your group and post to social media. That is it! The calendar is ALL digital and no need to constantly update it. When donors click on the date (s), they are directed to a payment screen where they can use PayPal or credit/debit card to make payment. They can select multiple dates at once. Organizations do not have to worry about collecting the donations. We take care of all that for you.

NO Calls!
NO Email collections!
NO Product Sells!
NO Badgering folks to pledge money!
NO Money collection!

Each individual will have the potential of raising close to $500 without having to make ANY contacts. (31 days per calendar=$496.00 per member).

Reach thousands of people instantly without having to make one single contact!

NO upfront costs!

Paramount Fundraising can ALSO add an incentive for donors with a DRAWING for a monetary amount!

Calendar Design

Paramount Fundraising designs a unique "pick-a-date" calendar for your organization and will provide each member a unique URL to copy and paste to their own social media via spreadsheet.

Family/Friends select date(s)

Once members post to their social media, friends/family can also share post allowing it to be seen by thousands instantly. Friends/family click on date(s) they wish to donate. ($1 for day 1, 2$ for day 2, 30$ for day 30, etc.)

Payment

The donor is automatically directed to the payment screen for payment. The donor will enter their name as they would like it to appear. (John Smith, Mom, Grandma, etc.)

Donors can select multiple dates at once

Selecting multiple dates is easy. Donors can select as many dates as they want and pay all at once.

Donor name posted

Once the donor has purchased the date(s), their name appears in real time on the calendar and that date is taken and is no longer available.

Activity report

That's it! All funds go directly to an account and a report is generated for each organization showing the amount each member raised. Once the fund raiser is completed, ONE check is sent to the organization along with the report. Members NEVER have to worry about collecting money from donors.

How is this different/better than other pick-a-date calendar fundraisers I have seen?

The major difference is that our pick-a-date calendar is ALL digital. Once members have uploaded their calendar to social media, it can be shared by others; reaching thousands more people.
No keeping track of who donated to constantly update/mark-off dates taken. Once the date is purchased, the donor's name populates the square (s) and it is no longer available for donations.
No keeping up with thousands of "paper" calendars
No worrying about keeping up with multiple forms of payments

How is the money collected? Do members have to collect the money?

NO. Once the date is taken, it goes directly to a general account. Members never have to reach out to collect the money, pledge, or donation. Once the fundraiser is completed, a check is cut to the organization with a breakdown of how much each member raised and grand total.

Organizations neve r have to worry about collecting the donations.

Do I have to collect any contacts? (phone numbers , emails, etc,)

NO. That is another feature that makes the pick-a-date calendar so simple. Members do not have to make any awkward calls or share any contacts. They simply paste their unique URL to social media. They can email out the links to family and friends, but WE do not ask members to share any personal information with our company.

How much work is required from the leader of the organization?

VERY little.

All we need is a logo to use for the design and an excel spreadsheet with first and last names. We do not need any emails, phone numbers, addresses, etc. That is it!
A spreadsheet will be generated with members' name and unique URL for their very own pick-a-date calendar for them to copy and paste to social media.

How long does the fundraiser last?

It is up to each organization, but we recommend no more than 3-4 weeks.

Is there an incentive for donors to purchase multiple dates?

YES. Paramount Fundraising can add a drawing for a monetary amount. Each date/square purchased on the calendar enters the donor into the drawing.

How much does this cost to run?

* ZERO upfront costs
* No minimums or maximums (Members can fill up multiple calendars)
* Organizations receive 85% of ALL donations
* Paramount Fundraising covers ALL credit card/merchant fees
* Donors are not charged (or asked to pay) any fees

We had a very positive experience working with Paramount Fundraising to raise money for our high school senior prom and post-graduation all night party. Their online platform made it incredibly easy for each student to manage their own fundraising calendar, allowing friends and family to donate seamlessly. The online calendar fundraiser approach not only simplified the fundraising process but also resulted in significantly higher net profits compared to traditional methods like car washes, bake sales, or product sales. Managing such a large group of students participating could have been a nightmare, but Paramount made it a breeze. Their system saved us from unnecessary burden of having students collect cash, turning that in, getting it to the bank, and making nothing gets lost or mixed up in the process. Instead, we got daily reports throughout the fundraiser, and a single payment at the end. Highly recommend Paramount for anyone looking to make their fundraising efforts smooth and successful!

The hands down easiest fundraiser ever! You have very minimal work with huge results. We have done two fundraisers over the past year and Mark has been amazing. He is super quick to respond to questions and very informative and friendly. Funds get to you very quickly and again the easiest way to raise money!

This was the first time doing a "Pick a Date to Donate" Calendar fundraiser at our school and we are so thankful that we found Paramount Fundraising to help us! They created the calendar using our own logo and images and then provided us with unique calendar links for each student. It made collecting funds so easy for our families....and we made over TWICE as much as we did on our previous fundraiser. We will definitely be using Paramount Fundraising next year and beyond!

HOW TO DO A PICK-A-DATE CALENDAR FUNDRAISER

How to do a "pick-a-date" calendar fundraiser.

The "pick-a-date" calendar fundraiser has been around a while. The basic idea is that a calendar is shared online or through email, etc. Donors, pick the date that corresponds to the amount they wish to donate, and that becomes their donation to the group. The date is marked-off, scratched out, etc.

Now, there is a revolutionary way of doing this. Paramount Fundraising has created an all-digital format for the "pick-a-date" calendar fundraiser! Click on the calendar below to see it work! You can click a date and see how the payment process works.

The problem with the "analog" version is that donors have to find a way to get their donations to the member. (Cash, Venmo, Zelle, CashAPP, etc.) The member then has to get those funds to the organization. AND, getting the money can be tricky and create some awkward conversations.

With Paramount Fundraising's new digital version, this is no longer a problem!

A custom calendar is created for your organization and members simply post to their social media. That's it!

Donors click on the date(s) that correspond to the amount they wish to donate, they are directed to a payment screen, and their name populates the square once they make payment. Organizations never have to worry any longer about collecting the donations pledged.

Members do not have to worry about "scratching off" dates, taking photos, and reposting their calendars. It is automatic and instant.

NO Calls!

NO Texts!

NO Money collection!
