Overview

Snap! Raise provides a digital fundraising platform designed for schools, groups, and teams to raise money online. Users create customizable fundraiser webpages to engage donors beyond their local area, sharing links to attract supporters far away (the company notes an average donor 276 miles away). The platform handles online donations and offers tools to track participants and generate financial reports, giving organizers real-time access to fundraising activity and expenditures. Security is prioritized through PCI DSS compliance and adherence to federal regulations to protect donor data. Revenue comes from fees on the funds raised through the platform. Compared with traditional door-to-door fundraising, Snap! Raise emphasizes online reach, clear reporting, and secure, simple setup to simplify the fundraising process for groups.
