How it works

LiveGood fundraising gives groups a way to share an online wellness fundraiser without handling boxes, paper forms, cash collection, or delivery days.

Most groups do not fundraise because they want another project to manage. They fundraise because something important needs support: school trips, team travel, youth programs, outreach, equipment, uniforms, supplies, community events, or monthly operating costs.

Traditional fundraisers can still work, but many of them are hard on families and volunteers. Candy bars, cookie dough, popcorn, candles, wrapping paper, bake sales, car washes, raffle tickets, and discount cards usually require a big push for a short period of time. When the sale ends, the money stops and the group has to start over again.

LiveGood fundraising is different because it is built around an online wellness product model. Supporters can watch a presentation, review the products and current details, and order online if it makes sense for them. If customers continue ordering eligible products, the group may continue benefiting according to the current program terms.

The simple idea

The core idea is easy to understand: instead of asking people to buy a one-time item they may not really want, the group shares a wellness-focused fundraiser page. Supporters decide for themselves whether the products fit their household.

That can feel more natural than sending students door to door with candy boxes or asking parents to collect order forms at work. It also works beyond one neighborhood or one event. A parent can text the fundraiser to relatives. A coach can share it with a team list. A church leader can include it in a newsletter. A nonprofit can use email, social media, and QR flyers.

How LiveGood fundraising works step by step

The process is designed around sharing, not product handling. A group reviews the fundraiser, gets set up, and gives participants a simple way to share with supporters.

  • The organizer watches the presentation and reviews the current official details.
  • The group is set up with an online fundraiser page or tracking structure.
  • Students, athletes, parents, members, or volunteers can participate and share online.
  • Supporters visit the page, review the wellness products, and order if they choose.
  • The group may earn from qualifying orders and may benefit from eligible repeat orders.
Important: fundraising results are not guaranteed. Earnings, eligibility, payout timing, product prices, country availability, and program rules are controlled by LiveGood and can change. Any numbers should be treated as examples, not promises.

Why it can be easier than old-style fundraising

Old-style fundraising often depends on physical work. Someone has to store boxes, count products, collect payments, track forms, schedule pickup, deliver orders, or staff an event. That is a lot to ask from busy families, coaches, teachers, pastors, directors, and volunteers.

An online fundraiser reduces that pressure. The group still needs to communicate clearly, but it does not need to manage a garage full of product or organize a delivery day. Supporters can review the information on their own time and order directly online.

Candy or cookie sales Often one-time, seasonal, and dependent on order forms or product boxes. Online wellness fundraising can be shared repeatedly without carrying inventory.
Car washes and bake sales Depend on weather, volunteers, foot traffic, location, and one-day timing. A fundraiser page can be shared by text, email, social media, or QR code anytime.
Donation pages Useful for urgent needs, but support often stops unless the group asks again. Product-based fundraising may keep helping if customers continue ordering.

How it helps schools

Schools and parent groups often raise money for field trips, classroom supplies, teacher appreciation, school events, clubs, band, choir, robotics, student council, graduation committees, and after-school programs.

For a school, the main advantage is simplicity. Parents can share the fundraiser from their phones. Grandparents and relatives can participate from anywhere. PTA and PTO leaders can avoid sorting order forms or storing products in classrooms or offices.

How it helps sports teams

Sports teams have repeat expenses: uniforms, tournament fees, equipment, gym time, field rentals, travel, meals, awards, and seasonal activities. A one-time fundraiser may help once, but many teams need support throughout the year.

With an online fundraiser, athletes and parents can share the presentation with friends, family, co-workers, alumni, and local supporters. The team does not need to carry boxes to practice or ask players to go door to door.

How it helps nonprofits and community groups

Nonprofits and community groups often need ongoing support for programs, events, outreach, supplies, transportation, food assistance, senior activities, youth centers, local projects, animal care, and emergency needs.

Donation pages can be useful, especially for urgent causes. But for groups with monthly needs, asking for donations again and again can feel heavy. A product-based fundraiser gives supporters another way to help, because they can buy products they may already want to use.

What recurring support means

The recurring part is the biggest difference from many old fundraisers. A candy sale ends when the candy is sold. A car wash ends when the event is over. A donation page usually needs another appeal to bring in more support.

With LiveGood fundraising, supporters may continue ordering wellness products over time. If those orders qualify under the current program terms, the organization may continue receiving support from those repeat orders. That is why this model can be interesting for groups with ongoing costs.

The safe way to explain it is simple: repeat support is possible when customers continue ordering. It is not guaranteed, and it depends on real customer activity.

Example numbers from the presentation

The fundraiser presentation uses simple example math to show how repeat orders could matter. It describes a customer order around $60 and explains that a group may earn more on a first qualifying order and may also earn from later qualifying orders.

For example, if 20 participants each found 3 supporters, that would be 60 customers. The presentation shows how first orders and repeat orders could add up if the same assumptions happen. A larger group could have larger potential, but the same rule applies: these are examples only, not guaranteed results.

What if one school could build repeat support?

Here is a bigger hypothetical example to show why schools, booster clubs, athletic departments, and parent groups may want to look closely at this model.

  • 1 school with 1,000 students.
  • Each student finds 3 customers.
  • That creates 3,000 potential customers.
  • If the average first order were $60, that would equal $180,000 in retail sales.
  • At an example 20% first-order fundraising rate, that could equal $36,000 for the school.
One-school example 3,000 customers x $60 average first order = $180,000 in example retail volume. At 20%, that could equal $36,000 in example initial fundraising revenue.
Repeat-order example If those customers continued ordering monthly, an assumed 10% repeat-order fundraising rate on $180,000 in monthly reorder volume could equal $18,000 per month.

Over 12 months, that repeat-order example could represent $216,000 in potential support from one school. Across 100 schools, the first-order example could represent much larger potential. But these are hypothetical numbers only. Actual participation, sales, average order value, customer retention, repeat orders, and program terms can all vary.

The real question is not whether every school will hit a perfect example. The better question is: what if a fundraiser did not have to start back at zero every year?

Advantages for schools, teams and nonprofits

The biggest advantage is that this fundraiser can be shared without turning families into product delivery teams. It gives organizers a cleaner way to invite support while keeping the process simple.

  • Free for organizations to review and participate: groups can explore the model without buying inventory first.
  • No stockroom problem: no boxes of candy, candles, wrapping paper, or popcorn to store.
  • No door-to-door pressure: participants can share the presentation by phone, email, social media, or QR code.
  • No complicated event planning: the fundraiser is not dependent on weather, tables, locations, or one-day traffic.
  • Potential repeat support: if customers continue ordering eligible products, the organization may continue benefiting.
  • Works for many group types: schools, churches, sports teams, nonprofits, booster clubs, PTA and PTO groups, and community causes can review whether it fits.

A local mission example: 100 Ohio schools

One possible outreach mission is simple: connect with 100 Ohio schools in 90 days and help school leaders review a new way to fundraise.

This could be relevant for superintendents, principals, athletic directors, booster club leaders, PTO and PTA members, coaches, and fundraising coordinators who are tired of starting over with the same one-time fundraisers every year.

The message to school leaders is straightforward: watch the presentation, review the current details, and see whether this online wellness fundraiser could support your school community.

It is as easy as 1-2-3-4

The setup is built around sharing, not storing products or running complicated events.

1. Invite your members Share the fundraiser with students, members, parents, athletes, volunteers, or supporters.
2. They share their link Each participant can receive a personal sharing link to send to friends and family.
3. Customers shop Supporters can review wellness products online and order if the offer fits their household.
4. Your organization gets paid Program examples describe 20% on new customer orders and 10% on eligible repeat orders.

That repeat-order potential is what makes this model different from one-time fundraisers.

Why this fundraiser is different

  • No inventory to stock.
  • No products to sell door to door.
  • No complicated events to organize.
  • Potential for ongoing monthly fundraising when customers continue ordering.
  • A simple way to introduce families to affordable wellness products.

What groups should prepare before launch

The best fundraiser still needs a clear message. Before sharing, the group should decide what the money supports, who will share the fundraiser, where the link will be shared first, and how follow-up reminders will be handled.

  • Choose one clear fundraising goal.
  • Prepare a short message for parents, members, volunteers, or supporters.
  • Share the presentation video instead of trying to explain everything manually.
  • Use email, text, social media, group chats, and QR flyers.
  • Remind participants that results are not guaranteed and depend on real orders.
