Note: Schoolfundr does not have a phone number upload feature for automated texts. The email system is the only automated outreach tool. To share by text, use the Text button in the Share your fundraiser section at the bottom of your dashboard.
Sharing your fundraiser by text
Scroll to the bottom of your participant dashboard and find the Share your fundraiser section. Click the Text button to open a pre-loaded text message with your personal donation link. Send it to anyone you want to reach.
š” Tip: Texting your link directly to family and close friends is one of the most effective ways to get donations fast. People respond to personal texts more than emails.
Why can't I upload phone numbers like email contacts?
Schoolfundr's automated outreach system only works with email addresses. There's no automated text campaign. The Text button in your dashboard lets you send your link from your own phone, not through Schoolfundr's servers.
FAQs
Will Schoolfundr automatically text my contacts?
No. Schoolfundr only sends automated emails. Texts are always sent manually by you through the Text button in your dashboard.
Can I just copy my link and text it manually?
Yes. Copy your link from the "Share with a link" field in the Share your fundraiser section and paste it into any text message.
