How it works

1. Launch Fundraiser

After we create the teams fundraising page, your fundraising director will be on site to help launch the campaign. We will assist each participant in joining the fundraiser and use the invite process to share the campaign with potential supporters via social media, text and email.

2. Monitor Participation

Track your progress and participation with Vertical Raise’s user friendly admin dashboard. The dashboard tracks levels of participation including the number of email invites sent, total dollars raised and social media shares.

3. Expedited Deposit of Funds

Funds will be delivered to you in a timely manner via check or direct deposit. Our online fundraising platform’s goal is to get your team the funds as soon as possible so you can have a successful season. All funds are secured using the worlds leading ecommerce platform and our 128-bit encrypted site.

“Anytime I needed anything regarding the fundraiser Mike got back to me very quickly via email or text. We have had a wonderful experience with vertical raise over the last few years.”

“I worked with Nat Zunkel and he did a great job presenting to my athletes and was always available to answer any questions that I had. I have already recommended Nat to a few co-workers that I have for their teams or activities looking to raise funds.”

“We had a great experience! Our representative was extremely helpful and supportive. He made sure we were prepared and as a rebuttal we were able to raise significant funds for our team.”

“Dave Chase is a motivator and convinced me to do this. I was hoping to make 5 to 6 thousand. Getting a check for over 11K is amazing and he made it extremely easy for me to understand. Can't wait until we do it again next year.”

“Vertical Raise was extremely effective and efficient. One piece of feedback would be the pushing of donors to leave tips. It's extremely hard to ask for donations with nothing in return and to continuously push the tip option, even though the company already takes a portion is not a great look in my opinion.”
