NO UPFRONT COSTS
That's right — you won't pay anything at any stage to us for your campaign! Our fees come out of the funds raised and the balance is deposited in your account.
CUSTOM BUILT WEBSITE
Our team takes your brand and your fundraising "why" and creates your very own custom fundraising website on our online fundraising platform.
YOUR OWN CAMPAIGN MANAGER
We don't just build you a website and leave you to it. We assign a Go Raise It Campaign Manager who will provide step-by-step guidance and fundraising ideas, whether that be a fun run for school, a colour run or any other fundraising event.
LOW COST = HIGH RETURNS
We believe in creating a fair and equitable return for schools & clubs. That is why you will find our fees the lowest of all similar programs.
FUNDRAISING MATERIALS PROVIDED
We know how time-pressed volunteer fundraisers are so we have taken that stress away with all communications material handcrafted by us!

FAQs
Is a colour run a profitable fundraiser for a school?
A colour fun run can be a great fundraiser for schools. The event’s broad appeal to students, parents and the wider community ensures strong participation and donations. With Go Raise It, there are no upfront costs, so all funds raised go directly to your school minus our industry-low fees (10% + GST). You can find out more about how our fees work and our optional top up fee for donors on our “How it Works” page
The event itself is also cost-effective. Colour powder and basic event supplies are inexpensive, especially when organised through Go Raise It. Since the event is simple, it also incurs minimal setup costs. Additionally, by promoting friendly competition with leaderboards and prizes, schools can increase fundraising totals with very little effort.
How do we run a colour run fundraiser at our school from start to finish?
- Contact the Go Raise It team and get signed up. Once we have your form, we will allocate a Campaign Manager.
- The Go Raise It team builds your custom website, which you will use to raise funds so your students can set up their own fundraising pages to collect sponsorship for their efforts.
- We build a fundraising plan for your event, marking out key dates and things you need to do.
- Launch your colour run fundraising website to your students and have them sign up to fundraise. You can set a fundraising goal and include a target, or leave that till closer to the end of your fundraiser once you see how successful your fundraiser is. Don’t cap your fundraising by specifying a goal too early.
- Watch your real time donation totals change live on your fundraising website as your fundraising efforts pay off.
- Plan, organise and hold your colour fun run.
- Go Raise It pays out your fundraiser profits — our fees will always be 10%+GST of the total donations received — that is fully inclusive of our full service and includes all credit card and platform fees. We do ask donors for an optional fee to cover card/platform fees — see our “How it Works” page for more info. You will always know exactly how you are doing at any point in your fundraiser as you can see the real time totals on your website — there are no surprise extra fees. We keep our process simple and easy to understand.
Do we need volunteers to help run the colour fun run event?
Yes, volunteers are essential to making your school fun run a success. While Go Raise It provides full support with our event guides and the online platform, organising the event itself is up to the school. You’ll need a team of volunteers to assist on the day with tasks such as setting up the course, managing registration, handing out water and colour powder, and ensuring the safety of participants. We recommend recruiting parents, teachers, and community members to help everything run smoothly on event day.
