Words to start from
Your campaign begins with this description. Change anything you like before you publish.
Our school Christmas fair is coming, and every square helps our pupils.
Sponsor a square on our Christmas tree and add your family name or a festive message. You can join in even if you can't come along on the day.
We'll explain what the money will pay for at school and share how much the fair raised. Please share the grid with family and friends.
Questions about School Christmas fair fundraisers
When should I run a fundraiser for School Christmas fair?
The run-up to the school Christmas fair, or any winter fair. Dates vary by year and location, so check the date where you are and open your grid a week or two before.
How does this tree fundraising grid work?
You set up your tree-shaped grid on GoodGrid and share one link or a printable QR poster. Supporters sponsor squares and can add a name or message, so the tree fills up as money comes in. Payments are processed by Stripe and go to the account you connect.
How much does it cost to run a fundraiser on GoodGrid?
Publishing is free and GoodGrid takes no percentage of what you raise. On the free plan there’s one £10 fee per campaign when it reaches £200 (or the equivalent in another supported currency). We charge the card you save when you publish, separately from sponsorship payments. Stripe’s card fee comes out of each payment automatically, so there’s nothing to pay up front. Running lots of campaigns? With the £9/month plan, campaigns that reach the threshold while you’re subscribed don’t pay the £10 fee. See what you’d keep.
Who receives the money?
The money goes to the Stripe account of the person or group running the fundraiser. Your page should name the charity, project or person you are supporting and explain how the money will be passed on. Fundraisers on GoodGrid are independent and are not official partnerships with the organisers of named events.
Can I change the words, shape, price or currency?
Yes. This idea is a starting point. You can edit the words, shape, currency and price per square before you publish.
This is an editable starting point, not a live fundraiser or a promise of results. Dates vary by year and location. Named events and causes belong to their organisers; fundraisers on GoodGrid are independent, not official partnerships.
