Introduction
Whether you’re a coach, team parent, or student-athlete, you know sports aren’t cheap. Between uniforms, tournament fees, travel costs, and gear, expenses add up quickly—and they usually fall on a small group of families to cover.
That’s where AllGives comes in. It’s a simple, free tool that turns your team’s everyday online shopping into year-round fundraising—without selling candy bars, organizing car washes, or chasing down raffle ticket money.
🏅 Why Sports Teams Need Better Fundraising Tools
From local leagues to elite club teams, most youth sports programs rely on volunteer-led fundraisers and parent donations to cover things like:
- Uniforms and equipment
- Tournament entry fees
- Hotel and travel expenses
- Practice facility rentals
- Awards, banquets, and team gear
Traditional fundraisers (like bake sales or merch drives) take a lot of time and effort—and they’re often short-lived. With AllGives, you can fundraise passively, consistently, and painlessly.
🛒 What Is AllGives?
AllGives is a free Chrome extension that helps your team earn money every time your supporters shop online. Once installed, it automatically generates donations at 300+ major stores—without costing anyone a dime extra.
Here’s how it works:
- Supporters install the AllGives browser extension

⚽️ Who Can Use AllGives?
AllGives works for just about any group or team that needs money, including:
- Club soccer, baseball, or basketball teams

- School athletic programs
- Martial arts, gymnastics, and swim teams
- Marching bands, robotics teams, and more
If you’re collecting team fees, fundraising for travel, or buying new gear, AllGives is for you.
📊 How Much Can You Realistically Raise?
One of the most common questions teams ask is: “How much can we actually earn with AllGives?” The answer depends on how many people participate and how frequently they shop online.
Here’s a rough estimate:
| # of Active Supporters | Avg Monthly Shopping | Est. Monthly Earnings | Est. Annual Earnings |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 families | $300/month | $30–$50 | $360–$600 |
| 25 families | $300/month | $75–$125 | $900–$1,500 |
| 50 families | $300/month | $150–$250 | $1,800–$3,000 |
Multiply that by multiple seasons or multiple teams—and the passive income adds up quickly.
💰 Real-World Scenario: Passive Fundraising in Action
You’re managing a U14 soccer team traveling to a regional tournament. The costs include:
- $150/player for hotel and gas
- $75/player for updated uniforms
- $100 team registration fee
- Plus extras like meals and team swag
If 25 families regularly shop online with AllGives—groceries, school supplies, Amazon orders—you could raise $500–$1,000 over a few months, without asking anyone to donate a penny out of pocket.
That’s travel covered, without organizing a single fundraiser.

📅 The Best Time to Launch AllGives
AllGives works year-round, but there are a few high-impact windows where launching (or re-promoting) it makes the most sense:
- Back-to-School Season (Aug–Sept) – Parents are buying clothes, supplies, tech
- Holiday Shopping (Nov–Dec) – Peak online shopping = peak donations
- Before Travel or Tournament Season – Frame it as a push to cover costs
- Spring Fundraising Season (Mar–May) – Great timing for uniforms and banquets
Send reminders during these windows to give your team a boost when it counts most.
🔁 Why AllGives Is Different from Traditional Fundraisers
| Traditional Fundraisers | AllGives |
|---|---|
| Limited time span | Year-round earning |
| Requires selling/buying | Just shop like usual |
| Lots of parent coordination | Minimal effort after setup |
| No cashback | Earn cashback + donate |
With AllGives, you get a fundraiser that runs in the background—forever.
🧩 Stack It with Other Fundraisers
AllGives doesn’t replace traditional fundraisers—it complements them. You can run AllGives in the background while doing other activities like:
- A one-time raffle or merch sale
- A travel-specific GoFundMe
- A restaurant night or silent auction
Because AllGives is passive and ongoing, it’s the perfect “always-on” backup plan—raising money between your major fundraising pushes.
📣 Tips to Spread the Word
- Share your AllGives link via team group chat, email, or TeamSnap
- Make a quick announcement at practice or a parent meeting
- Set a fundraising goal (e.g., “Let’s cover travel by May!”)
- Celebrate milestones to keep momentum going
