How it works:

Teams participating have the flexibility to choose their fundraising approach. 

Teams can create and share a fundraising page (Click the green box, "Start or Join a team"), sell specially designed T-shirts, or combine both options. Whether through word of mouth donations, T-shirt sales (t-shirts can be provided by the Foundation), bake sales, or any other unique option the team thinks of to raise money, our peer-to-peer fundraising software gives teams the freedom to unleash their creativity to make a difference.

Unique team engagement + Naming your game:

Each team can personalize their campaign by naming their event creatively. 

For instance, a lacrosse team could call it "LaCROSSe Out Cancer," a soccer team might choose "Kickin' It for Kids with Cancer," while a basketball team could opt for "Hoops for Hatch." The program unites all these events under the common umbrella of "Playing for a Purpose."

​Team + Individual goals:

Teams have the liberty to set their fundraising goals, and each player can have their own fundraising page. 

This structure fosters friendly competition within the team and across different teams, inspiring players to actively contribute to their team's success while benefiting a greater purpose.
