Giving beyond tuition.
Without another ask.

Independent, private, parochial and K-12 schools, where families, alumni and communities fund education through everyday participation. CauseFi. for education adds giving that never sends another appeal letter: spirit nights, everyday round-ups, and local businesses giving back on all of it.

The story

The spirit night ends. The giving keeps going.

A Tuesday night at a local restaurant becomes a school fundraiser, and that is just the opening act. Every family card in the program keeps giving long after the tables are cleared: the grocery run funds financial aid, the gas fill-up feeds the annual fund, and the local businesses that hosted spirit night keep giving back all year.

The platform works alongside your school’s system of record, not against it, and the K-12 cause area opens through the sector’s biggest CRM channel. Your advancement office keeps its tools and gains a giving engine the annual appeal could never build. Schools run on spirit wear, and the school store still looks like the school.

One purchase, two funders

They paid $99.20 either way.

Groceries on a Tuesday, after pickup. Same card, nobody asked them for anything. Watch what happens to the money.

Groceries · Gas · Dining · Uniforms · Registration · Spirit wear

01 · The purchase

$99.20

On the card they already carry. Nothing new, nothing extra.

02 · Their own change

+$0.80

The purchase rounds up to $100 and the change goes to the mission.

03 · The brand's money

+$9.92

An Impact Partner gives back 10 percent of the spend, from its own money.

04 · To the school

$10.72

From one swipe. A round-up app alone reaches eighty cents of that.

Do it a few times a month and it is $840 a year, from spending that was going to happen anyway. Before CauseFi., this transaction produced nothing. Not less. Nothing.

A year on the platform.

The calendar your world already keeps, funded the whole way around. No dead months, no starting from zero.

August

Back to school

Enrollment packets carry one new line: link a card, and the school benefits from the family grocery run all year. amp. launches the fall campaign the same week.

October

Spirit night

No flyers, no manager tally: linked cards attribute automatically at the pizzeria while the thermometer climbs mid-meal, and new families link at the table QR.

March

The auction gala

door. seats the gym, padl. turns the class art projects into a bidding war, draw. runs the tuition raffle lawfully, and every receipt splits gift from purchase honestly.

May

The annual fund close

txt. runs the final push with one-tap give links, Impact Partner matches double the last week, and trak. hands the head of school a report the board reads in a minute.

And underneath every season, the everyday layer never stops: linked cards round up on ordinary spending, Impact Partners give back on every swipe, and Smart Sweep carries the forgotten change to the mission, fifty-two weeks a year.

Solutions built for k-12 education.

Four ways the platform goes to work for your world. Open each one.

Turn everyday spend into k-12 education funding

Supporters link the cards they already carry, and every purchase rounds up to the next dollar for your organization. Smart Sweep moves the forgotten change for you, automatically. No new habit, no new app to remember, and the give back layer lets the businesses your people already shop at match the change. How donr. runs the money.

Own the calendar, not just the event

Spirit nights. Back-to-school season. Grandparents day. The annual fund. Giving moments your families already love, minus the fatigue. Power-ups add urgency when the moment peaks, and recurring gifts carry the quiet months. amp. is the growth engine.

Run the live season in one place

Events, golf, auctions, and drawings run on the same login as the everyday platform: door. handles the room, golfr. the outing, padl. the bidding, and draw. the 50/50, with every dollar landing in the same reporting.

Know your people, prove your impact

Every swipe, sweep, ticket, and match writes to one record. trak. is the CRM underneath, the dashboards read from it live, and tax time is already done because the receipt truth was built in from the first dollar. Built for heads of school and advancement directors at independent, private, parochial, and K-12 schools.

How k-12 education gives on the platform.

The same engine underneath, tuned to your calendar, your language, and your people. Everything your supporters already trust stays exactly where they left it.

Spirit nights, amplified

The event brings families in. The round-ups keep them giving after everyone goes home.

Impact Partner give back

The pizza place, the orthodontist, the team outfitter. Local family businesses giving back on every school card.

Recurring annual fund gifts

Steady support for financial aid and programs, set once, running quietly all year.

Merchant rewards

Families earn while they give. The local economy and the school win together.

The applications, in your language.

Every application ships with the platform. Here is what each one actually does for a k-12 education organization, in the moments your calendar already has.

Beyond tuition

Families, alumni, and grandparents link the cards they already carry, and everyday spending funds financial aid, programs, and the gap tuition never covers.

For your questions

Straight answers on the architecture, the money, and getting started, written like humans wrote them. Read the FAQ.

K-12 Education questions, answered straight.

What does CauseFi. for education cost?

One flat fee on what moves, with processing inside it, and the license fee waived for organizations on the platform agreement. Standalone rooms like events, golf, and auctions price on their own order forms. The exact schedule lives on your order form, and the pricing page explains how it works.

Will this disrupt what we already run?

No. The platform is additive: your CRM, your accounting, and your existing giving programs keep doing their jobs. CauseFi. adds the everyday layer they never had, and trak. keeps one record so nothing falls between systems.

What do our supporters actually have to do?

Create an account and pick your organization, or arrive through your QR code or txt. message with the cause already chosen. That is the whole ask: they can give any way they like from day one, and if they link a card, the round-ups, the give back, and the sweeps run on the spending they were already doing, with their dashboard showing every dollar.

How fast can we launch?

Signup collects everything upfront, so the platform is turned on fast. A dedicated Success Advocate carries you all the way through launch and go-live. Start your signup.
