What could we raise?
Three sliders. The maths is the same as the one we pay on, cap and all.
A quarter to a third is typical once families have heard about it twice.
A shoebox of commons is a few hundred. Sixty is one small stack.
Your school would raise
$810
135 students × 60 cards = 8,100 cards
At $0.10 a card, 91,900 more cards would reach it.
This is an estimate, not a quote. What a school actually raises depends on how many families hear about it — the schools that do best mention it twice: once in a newsletter and once in a note that goes home in a bag.
You are paid on the cards we count, not the estimate above. Nothing here commits you to anything.
Compared with the usual fundraiser
Nothing to sell
No wrapping paper, no cookie dough, no catalogue, no asking families to buy anything. The cards are already in the house.
Nothing to organise
No date, no venue, no volunteer rota, no permission slips. A box in the office and a number typed into a phone.
Nothing at risk
No upfront cost, no inventory to buy, no minimum to hit. A school that collects nothing owes nothing.
Want the number to be real?
Signing up takes two minutes and commits you to nothing. You can put the box out the same week and see what walks in.
