FAQs
How can I choose the right fundraising event for my school?

Think about what will excite your students and engage parents, and we’ll provide a platform that helps you raise the most funds while keeping it fun and simple to organise.
What is the most profitable fundraiser for schools?
The most profitable fundraising events for schools are typically engaging, easy to participate in and broad appeal. Fun and colour runs are popular choices because they create excitement and community involvement. However, academic events like maths-a-thons and read-a-thons can also be highly successful, especially with our digital platform that encourages widespread participation and donation tracking.
How much do school fundraising events cost?
With Go Raise It, your school can run a fundraising event with no upfront costs. We charge a flat all-inclusive 10% + GST from the funds raised — the lowest in the industry for online events like fun runs, colour runs and any ‘athons’. Head to our how it works info to find out more about how our fees work, unlike other platforms that charge around 40% + GST and allocate part of that to student prizes, our model allows you to offer prizes in a more cost-effective, personalised way. This means your school can keep more of the money raised while still motivating students, making it a highly profitable and flexible option.
