What Schools, Teams, and Booster Clubs Say About PledgeStar
"PledgeStar completely transformed our jog-a-thon. What used to raise $17,000 now brings in over $85,000, without third-party vendors taking a massive cut. It is incredibly easy for parents and grandparents, and we keep 100% of the money for our school."
"With PledgeStar, we worked less and raised more. The system was incredibly easy to use! No licking stamps or sealing envelopes, and we raised more money than we ever had from a single fundraiser. It was just awesome."
"The Hit-A-Thon was a tremendous success. We raised over $38,000 with 250 players, and board members who've served for a decade had never seen anything like it. PledgeStar takes your fundraising to the next level, times ten!"
"We ask our 38 volunteers to raise $1,000 each for our foster-kids summer camp. With PledgeStar we reached our goal of $60,000 easily and even have $16,000 in reserves for next year. They saved our camp!"
"By using PledgeStar we doubled our profits with half the effort. Our emails were answered immediately, and help was just a phone call away. We raised over $12,000 — PledgeStar truly is a game-changer."
"The platform is just so easy to use and the reporting is really straightforward. Our dunk tank was the icing on the cake, and we raised $19,000, more than double what we brought in the year before."
