Innovative Online Fundraiser Tool for Your Favorite School

Read the headlines... America's educational system (i.e. our children, our future) is in crisis mode and it's getting worse. Districts are having to lay off teachers, increase class sizes and do with much less than America's future deserves.

Most fundraisers where kids sell stuff give schools 30-70% return, but skoolfund.com designed a way for schools to get 100% of what they are asking for. Their automated traditional business mailings and their partnership page will provide opportunity for business partners.

Nearly 1000 businesses nationwide match gift donations to schools for their employees. Many of these businesses will likely jump on the opportunity to partner with them for schools.
