Are your students safe? Are your funds secure?

Many fundraising solutions claim to be completely free to use, but it’s important to recognize that “free” often comes with hidden costs. We’re raising awareness about these risks to help keep kids—and the funds they work hard to raise—safe.

Many online fundraising platforms:

Sell kids’ data: User data is sold to advertisers and data brokers to target kids with ads based on their interests and demographics.

Co-mingle funds: Raised funds are pooled with other programs, creating a safety risk for funds.

Unknowingly allow fake fundraisers: Without proper security, fraudsters can create fake accounts and raise money while posing as your progam.
