A proposal for Ryle Athletics

More of every
gift stays with
the Raiders.

I’m Sarah Limbacher, the owner of KeepMore Fundraising. My kids go to Boone County Schools, and I’m the PTSO president at Ballyshannon Middle School.

If Ryle raises $20,000, the team keeps $18,000 after my 10% fee. That’s $5,000 more for your athletes than with a 35% fundraising fee.

01 / The game plan

Built for your team.
Ready for your season.

Freshman, JV, and varsity athletes can all participate. If 50 athletes average $400 each, they would raise $20,000.

Teams that can fundraise this spring

Choose a program to see a sample campaign. A team of 25 athletes averaging $1,000 each would reach $25,000.

Ryle could use the same fundraising structure for fall sports in 2027 and beyond.

YOUR STARTING LINEUP

Ryle Baseball

Practice equipment, team travel, or tournament entry fees could give families a specific reason to contribute. Your coach chooses what the money will cover.

01

Tell the story

Explain the specific need, whether that’s equipment, uniforms, travel, tournament fees, or training resources.

02

Give every athlete a way to share

Personal links and QR codes connect family, friends, and supporters to the team’s campaign.

03

Keep the whole team moving

Kickoff support, parent messages, progress updates, and approved incentives help families know what to do next.

What would work for your athletes?

Choose personal donation pages, a Fill the Calendar fundraiser, or a team challenge. If you have an idea of your own, I can build a campaign around it and handle the setup.

Ballyshannon Middle School PTSO

Recent fundraising results

I’m Ballyshannon’s PTSO president, and I’ve helped run fundraisers there for two years. Together, these five campaigns raised about $74,500 for athletes, arts programs, and the school.

Our middle school basketball fundraiser raised about $14,600. A high school team can raise quite a bit more, especially when alumni and local businesses join families in supporting the athletes. If 50 Ryle athletes each raise $600, that’s $30,000 raised before fees.

Ballyshannon’s athletic director, Pat Pidgeon, principal Jamie Brewer, and coaches I’ve worked with there support my work. You’re welcome to reach out to Pat or Jamie for a reference.

A clear split.

ILLUSTRATION

Your team keeps with KeepMore$22,500
KeepMore’s 10% service fee$2,500

With a 35% fee, your team would keep $16,250. At the same fundraising total, that’s $6,250 more for Ryle with KeepMore.

Examples show the fundraising fee only. Approved expenses, refunds, chargebacks, or applicable payment fees can affect the final amount.

Support the Raiders
with as little as $1.

Many other fundraising companies charge a 35% fee. Some also set a $35 minimum donation.

With KeepMore, a friend can give $1, a grandparent can give $10, and each gift counts toward the athlete’s goal. KeepMore’s fundraising service fee is 10%.

  • Teams usually pay no additional fees on online donations. Under the donation platform’s standard pricing, enabling optional tips means the team pays no platform or payment-processing fees, even when a donor skips the tip.
  • Donations go directly to the school or authorized booster organization. KeepMore invoices its 10% fee separately.
  • You approve any spending on prizes or printing before kickoff.

05 / From idea to opening day

A manageable plan.
A shared effort.

We’ll choose the dates together around practices, games, school breaks, and other team fundraisers.

01

Plan together

Choose the team, campaign format, goal, dates, and what the funds will support.

02

Build & launch

KeepMore prepares pages and sharing materials, then helps athletes and families get started.

03

Share & follow up

Families share links and thank donors. KeepMore tracks progress and prepares reminders.

04

Wrap up clearly

Review final totals, confirm any approved incentives, and close out the campaign with a final report.

What the team provides

A point person, accurate roster, school or booster approvals, approved photos and messaging, and encouragement for athletes and families to participate. The organization controls its payout account and handles any physical events or prize distribution.

A few things coaches may ask

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Can just one team participate?

Yes. A freshman team can run its own fundraiser, as can a JV or varsity team. Several squads can also share a campaign or join an athletics-wide fundraiser. Each team’s goal and reporting can be planned around its needs.

Do athletes have to sell or deliver products?

The proposed formats are donation-based. Athletes and families share personal links, follow up with supporters, and say thank you. No product inventory or deliveries are part of this proposal.

Are prizes included in the 10%?

Incentive planning and tracking can be included in campaign support. Physical prizes and other purchases are separate, approved in advance, and accounted for in the campaign budget.

How much time does a coach need to commit?

The coach or team contact helps approve the plan, supplies the roster, and encourages participation. KeepMore handles campaign setup, sharing materials, donation tracking, and final reporting. Timing and responsibilities are agreed before launch.

Let’s build something for the Raiders.

Your next season.
Our starting point.
