Discount Card Fundraiser

A discount card is a wallet-sized card that features exclusive offers from local businesses in your community — such as buy-one-get-one-free deals, 10% off, or a free dessert with an entrée. The purchaser can use the card at any of the listed businesses repeatedly for an entire year, making it a valuable way to save money while supporting local schools and merchants.

How It Works

  1. Reach Out to Us

    Create a wishlist of 20 or so local businesses you would love to see on your card.

  2. We Do the Legwork

    We’ll contact businesses in your area (prioritizing those on your wishlist) to create an 18 merchant custom school discount card just for you.

  3. We’ll Provide the Tools

    You’ll receive ready-to-use social media content, shareable links, and digital flyers to help promote your fundraiser both online and in person. We’ll also provide an initial batch of 250 professionally printed discount cards to get you started.

  4. You Sell — Risk-Free

    Run your fundraiser for 2–4 weeks. At the end of the campaign, simply return any unsold cards and pay SchoolSpark 30% of the value of the cards sold.

    There are no upfront costs, no leftover inventory, and no money wasted—your organization only pays for the cards it sells.

  5. Split the Profits

    You keep 70% of the revenue, and we retain 30% for handling all the setup, printing, and fulfillment.

Example: Sell 500 cards at $20 each -> $10,000 total sales -> $7,000 profit for your school!

Why It Works:

  • Our discount cards typically pay for themselves in 2-3 uses, making them an easy sell to family and friends.

  • It’s a fundraiser for your school, valuable money saver for buyers and free advertising for businesses — a win for everyone!
