“They bought all ten of my car wash tickets and discount cards every single year. “Returning rain or shine were always my two most loyal customers: my parents,” she remembered. But after years of tedious product sales to help cover the expenses of her club soccer program, one former youth athlete notes that she wasn’t the only one in her family who was fed up – her parents were burdened by the product sales, too. It’s no secret that product fundraisers take up valuable time kids need to study and play. Watch how one coach ditched her cookie dough fundraiser and funded her team’s wish list with Snap! Raise. Selling products to fundraise is less than ideal – and parents have many complaints.

One: Your child comes home from soccer practice with a fundraising packet as dense as War and Peace. It’s time to walk away from Product Fundraisers You know the drill…
