Pledge4Play

Pledge4Play helps youth sports teams, clubs, schools and individual athletes raise money the way families actually communicate — by sharing a link with the people who already know them. No catalogs. No order forms. No cash envelopes going missing in a backpack. HOW IT WORKS • Join your team's fundraiser with a code from your coach, or set up your organization's first campaign in minutes • Get your own donation link, tied to you or your child • Share it by text message, Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Instagram or TikTok • Donors give by card on a secure page and get an emailed receipt • Totals update automatically — see your progress and your team's the moment a donation lands REACHING OUT, WITHOUT THE SPAM Pledge4Play never sends texts for you. When you're ready, it opens your phone's own Messages app with your message prepared, one person at a time, so every message goes out from your number into the conversation you already have with that person. You see each one before it sends. Your contacts stay on your device and are never uploaded. FOR ORGANIZERS • Set a goal, invite participants with a join code, and track who's raising what • Optional leaderboard to keep a team motivated • Group participants by team, grade, class or division • Payouts handled through Stripe, straight to your organization FOR INDIVIDUAL ATHLETES Junior golfers, swimmers, gymnasts and any athlete without a team behind them can raise money on their own. Parent or guardian approval is built in for minors. FOR BUSINESSES Companies can sponsor a fundraiser with a matching donation and appear on the campaign page. Organizations that verify their 501(c)(3) status can offer tax-deductible receipts to their donors. Questions? support@pledge4play.com
