School-Wide
One campaign the whole building is in on.
School-wide campaigns have the largest participant pool available and, too often, the weakest structure. The difference between a campaign that engages a school and one that engages a handful of classrooms is almost entirely in how it is organised before it launches.
What this actually looks like
The pressures that shape a campaign for this kind of group.
Scale only helps if it is organised
Eight hundred students is either eight hundred sharing pages or a very large number of unread emails. Structure decides which.
Classrooms are natural teams
Grade and class leaderboards give students something concrete to care about, and give teachers something simple to reinforce.
Administrators need real numbers
Live totals by grade and by class, not a reconciliation exercise in the week after it closes.
How we would approach it
A starting point, not a script. The plan changes once we know your calendar.
- Launch in the first six weeks of the year, while engagement is highest
- Run grade and classroom leaderboards inside one school goal
- Set a participation goal alongside the dollar goal
- Name a visible outcome — technology, playground, field trips
- Give staff one short script so the explanation is the same in every room

Questions
Questions from groups like yours
Straight answers, including the ones without a comfortable number attached.
What kinds of groups can fundraise this way?
School sports teams, school-wide campaigns, youth leagues, travel and club teams, cheer, dance, band and marching band, PTO and PTA groups, and other clubs and community organizations. If your group has participants who can share a page, it fits.
What keeps participants engaged after the first week?
MoneyDolly includes daily challenges, leaderboards and reward milestones. These give participants something specific to act on and make progress visible, which is usually what separates a campaign that keeps moving from one that goes quiet.
Do we still have to handle cash and envelopes?
Supporters give digitally through the platform, so there is far less cash to collect, count and reconcile than in a traditional paper fundraiser.
Can we see progress while the campaign is running?
Yes. Group leaders and participants can see real-time progress toward the goal, including participation and supporter activity, throughout the campaign.
