Real-Life Example: Northside Primary STEM Lab
The Challenge
Northside Primary School wanted to create a dedicated STEM lab with equipment for hands-on science and engineering activities, but needed £5,000 for materials and equipment beyond their annual budget.
The GoodGrid Solution
The school created a 100×100 grid with blocks at 50p each, inviting parents, local businesses, and alumni to sponsor blocks. Each class participated by creating promotional materials and sharing the campaign.
The Results
The campaign exceeded its goal in 8 weeks, raising £5,750. The completed grid was printed as a permanent display in the new STEM lab, recognising all contributors. The school also gained several ongoing business partnerships from the campaign.
"GoodGrid transformed our annual fundraising approach. Instead of another bake sale or fun run, we created something that truly engaged our entire school community. The children loved watching the grid fill up each week, and our supporters appreciated seeing exactly how their contributions were helping."

Tips for Education Campaigns
💡 Involve Students
Where appropriate, involve students in campaign promotion, tracking progress, or sending thank you messages to supporters. This creates valuable learning opportunities.
💡 Highlight Learning Outcomes
Clearly communicate the specific educational benefits and learning outcomes that will result from your campaign. Show how it enhances curriculum or creates opportunities.
💡 Suggest Block Quantities
Encourage supporters to purchase multiple blocks tied to specific resources. For example, "£10 worth of blocks buys one science kit" or "£25 worth of blocks funds a field trip for one student."
💡 Partner with Local Businesses
Invite local businesses to sponsor larger sections of your grid, offering recognition in school newsletters, events, or on your website in return for their support.
