## What is helpfund?

helpfund makes school fundraising simple, transparent, and fun - for PTAs, teachers, and families.

FOR FAMILIES
- Register your child and get a personal donation page to share with family and friends by text or email
- One family link shows all your kids - perfect for grandparents
- Kids earn points for donations and shares, then spend them in the school's prize store
- Watch your school and classroom race toward their goals

FOR PTAs
- Set up your fundraiser in minutes: goals, point rules, teacher import from Excel, and your school's branding
- Real-time dashboards: totals by grade and classroom, top fundraisers, sortable and filterable donation lists
- Post announcements that email every family - with one-tap Spanish translation
- Donations go directly to your school through Stripe, and the school keeps 100% of the gift when donors cover fees

FOR TEACHERS
- Your own classroom page and dashboard: class goal, student progress, and a shareable classroom link

Every school gets its own colors, logo, and photo carousel. Fully bilingual English / Espanol.
