A campaign is how you collect money in FutureFund. Yearbooks, spirit wear, PTA memberships, dance tickets, donations — each one is a campaign. Every campaign belongs to a single organization, so sales go to that organization’s bank account.

In the Admin, campaigns live under the Campaigns heading in the left sidebar, grouped by what you’re trying to do:

Pick the menu that matches your goal, then click Build Campaign. See Building a Campaign for a walkthrough.

Fundraisers

• Donation Drive: Ask supporters to give directly, no event required. Set a goal and boost donations with corporate matching, installments, and donor walls.
• Pledge: For Fun Runs, Read-A-Thons, and Jog-A-Thons, where students sign up and friends and family donate to cheer them on. Includes participant dashboards, leaderboards, and incentives.
• Auction: Run an online auction with bidding, watchlists, and self-checkout.

Memberships

• Membership: One membership, one price. Sell PTA, PTSA, PTO, and booster club memberships to parents, students, and community members. Works for ASB memberships too.
• Tiered Membership: Offer levels at different prices, like Gold, Silver, and Bronze, each with its own perks.

Ticketing

• Ticket: Sell, distribute, and redeem tickets for events with dates, ticket types, seating sections, and season passes.

Products

• Purchase: Sell one item with options like size and color. Great for spirit wear, PE clothes, and yearbooks, and for collecting money for fees such as lab fees.
• Sign Up: Register families for clubs, classes, and programs. Supports waitlists, early-bird pricing, and sibling discounts. A clearer alternative to a product priced at zero dollars.
• Shop: A single page that collects several campaigns in one place for families to browse and buy individually.
• Bundle: Combine several campaigns into one package at a single price, like a membership plus a t-shirt plus a donation.
• External: Link to an outside website for yearbooks, cafeteria funds, or anything else not in FutureFund, so families can find all your programs in one place.

Renamed Campaign Types

A few campaign types have been renamed. Only the names changed. Existing campaigns, their settings, reports, and payouts all work exactly as before.

For a while, the campaign builder shows Donation Drive (formerly Fundraiser) so the type is easy to find.
