Raise $5,000 for Your Sports Team in 4 Weeks
In this video, Catie from RallyUp walks you through a four-week plan to raise $5,000 for a sports team — with a running total at the end of each week, and no cookie dough involved.
The plan works because it stacks. Each week adds one new way to raise on top of what is already running, so momentum compounds instead of resetting. By week four you are closing a gap, not starting a fundraiser.
The four-week plan:
Week 1 — $1,500: launch one team page and have every athlete send 10 personal messages. That alone can raise $1,500
Week 2 — $2,750: bring in local sponsors with three tiers at $100, $250, and $500
Week 3 — $4,000: add one more way to raise — a Raffle, a mini auction, or a skills clinic
Week 4 — $5,000: close with urgency, not pressure. Show exactly what’s left
1 goal + 20 athletes = momentum. Every athlete gets their own page to share. That is Peer-to-Peer, and it is the easiest way to turn one team goal into twenty helpers
