For the Room Parent · Engage
Spirit wear, the teacher-gift collection, and giving — all on your school’s own site, where families pay from their phone in seconds, no account needed. And when a parent covers fees, the whole gift reaches the PTO.
“I’m the one who gets the class to show up — buy the spirit wear, chip in $5 for the teacher gift, come to the event — usually by chasing everyone across the class text chain. I need it so easy that a busy parent can do it from their phone in ten seconds, no account, no fuss.”

Collecting $5 from every family for the teacher gift, one awkward text at a time.

A branded site in your school’s colors on its own web address — the front door families recognize and trust, instead of a stranger’s payment link. Live today.
The bake-sale table is cash-only, and fees nibble whatever we do collect online.
Fundraise
Donor-covers-fees: when a family chooses to cover fees, 100% of their gift reaches the PTO — no nibble. And a paper sign-up sheet for the bake-sale table won’t stay paper for long: events and sign-ups are being built into the same site. Donor-covers-fees is live today.
The part that matters most
Guest checkout means no login stands between a busy parent and their yes — whether it’s $5 for the teacher gift or a spirit-wear order. The store and donation page live on the school’s own branded site, so families recognize it and trust it instead of a stranger’s link — and when a donor covers fees, the whole gift lands with the PTO. Volunteer sign-ups — bring cookies for the bake sale, staff the table, drive on the field trip — are being built into the same site, so the paper sign-up sheet can finally retire.

With the donor-covers-fees option, a family can cover the small platform fee so the full gift reaches the PTO — and the PTO stays the merchant of record, so families get proper receipts.
Roles overlap
One parent often covers several of these roles — these pages are doors, not boxes.
