Fundraising University
Fundraising University franchises enable operators to develop and operate fundraising companies that plan, execute, and repeat fundraisers under the Fundraising University brand. The business model includes an initial franchise fee, monthly royalties, brand fund contributions, and local advertising expenses that scale with the number of territories (1-10) purchased, along with required sponsorship of sports clinics upon opening. The target market is elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as youth sports leagues for those age groups, with primary customers being coaches and teachers.
