The fundraiser families already have at home

Pokémon-athon

Turn forgotten Pokémon cards into school funding

No selling. No order forms. No cash to collect.

Families donate the cards nobody is using. We buy them at 10¢ each and pay the school directly, up to $10,000.

Every kid already has these

They are in a shoebox under a bed doing nothing. The same cards can pay for the things your PTA has been arguing about since September.

  • Field trips
  • Playground equipment
  • Classroom supplies
  • Music programs
  • Sports equipment
  • Library books

The money goes to the school with no strings on it. What it pays for is entirely your decision — we never see it and never ask.

Three steps

Step 1

Kids bring cards to school

Any Pokémon cards — the bulk commons at the bottom of the box are exactly what we want. Families drop them at the office. No event to run, no date to organise, no volunteers to recruit.

Step 2

The school logs and ships

Whoever is at the desk types the count into their phone. When there is enough to be worth posting, the school ships the box to us and we recount every card.

Step 3

We pay the school

Ten cents per verified card, up to $10,000 per school. Real money, sent to the school. Nobody has to sell anything, bake anything, or run a lap.

Raise money for your school

All elementary, middle & high schools

Signing up takes two minutes and commits you to nothing. Put a box in the office and see what comes in.
