Why high schools choose Heart & Hustle Fundraising
Most fundraising platforms take a hidden cut, push products nobody asked for, or turn your participants and donors into a marketing list for sale. We don't. Every campaign runs on 100% return school fundraising—stated gifts go to your program, not a platform fee. Coaches, athletic directors, activity sponsors, and booster clubs get personal donation links—not catalogs and quota pressure.
Built for teams, not catalogs
Personal donation links and optional texting replace order forms, deliveries, and quota pressure—so Organizers and advisors focus on participants.
Privacy you can stand behind
Designed to be FERPA and COPPA compliant. We don't sell student, donor, or participant data. Supporters give to the team—not to a marketplace built on reselling leads.
Quick payouts
We initiate disbursement within three business days after applicable donations have cleared through Stripe; you often see funds in about 2–3 business days after that clearance (payout timing is described in Section 7 of our terms of service).
Local, not faceless
Heart & Hustle is built and operated in Illinois. You work with people who know Illinois high schools, booster clubs, and community programs—not an anonymous national help desk.
