Fundraising and Donations
An Easier Way for Students to Fund Their Adventure
We know that one of the biggest challenges in planning a field trip is making sure it's affordable for every family. You want to provide incredible new experiences, but financial hurdles can limit participation and add to your stress.
That’s why we’ve built a powerful, easy-to-use donation feature right into our online trip platform. It’s a modern alternative to traditional fundraising that helps students quickly and easily receive contributions from family and friends, making unforgettable trips a reality for more students.
““A student in our group received $370 in donations from just three people. They paid off more than half their trip in one week!””
How It Works: Fast, Easy, and Secure
Our platform is designed to be completely stress-free for teachers, parents, and donors
Share the News
As soon as a student registers for a trip, they receive a unique and personal donation link. They can instantly copy the link and share it with family and friends via text, email, or social media
Simplify the Process
Anyone who wants to contribute simply clicks the link to visit the student's secure donation. They can see the trip destination and the remaining amount needed. With a click of the "Donate Now" button, they can use a credit or debit card to contribute in seconds.
See the Results
Donations appear immediately on the student’s payment timeline, so everyone can see the progress in real-time. It’s a transparent and exciting way for students to watch their trip fund grow.
Why It's a Game-Changer for Teachers & Schools
-
By making trips more affordable, our donation feature helps you build a more inclusive travel program where every student has the chance to participate.
-
Say goodbye to the hassle of managing product fundraisers. This tool is a no-cost, simple way for students to seek support directly from those who care about them. It works great alongside traditional fundraising or on its own.
-
The entire process is automated. You don’t have to collect cash, track checks, or answer payment questions. We handle all the logistics so you can focus on the educational experience.
-
This feature gives students ownership and a simple way to ask for a gift that contributes to a life-changing experience. It also gives families who want to contribute a clear and easy way to do so.
Combine Donations with a Proven Fundraising Strategy
While our Traveler Donation Link is a powerful tool, combining it with traditional fundraising can help students cover even more of their trip costs. In our experience, fundraising typically covers 60-75% of trip expenses.
If fundraising is on your mind, we’ve got a friend you should meet: Michele, Your Fundraising Lady. She’s a pro at turning great ideas into the dollars that make trips happen and has a dedicated program for Orange Sky travelers.
