A personal invitation beats a single post
20 people can make a big difference.
Fundraising works best when every participant takes part. Instead of relying on one social-media post, we encourage every player, parent or organization member to personally identify people who already care about them and their organization.

- Family
- Former teammates

What could your organization do?
Try a simple outreach goal. Reaching someone does not mean they will buy a sticker.
Your organization payout depends on your program setup.
500Potential supporters
If every person buys one $25 sticker: $12,500 in gross sales.
At the current $17 gross organization proceeds per sticker: $8,500 in gross organization proceeds.
Example only, using the current $25 sticker price. This assumes every contact is unique and buys one sticker. Gross sales are not organization earnings. Organization proceeds use the current program terms, before any additional organization expenses. Final sticker costs, coordinator compensation and fees are confirmed during program setup. These are not guaranteed results.

Created by Seth Beaty, Very Good Local brings custom sticker design, team fundraising and local discovery together. Baseball and travel sports are where we started. School athletic programs, clubs, churches, bands and youth and community organizations belong here, too.

Local money. Local value. Local impact.
Good questions
The important parts, plainly.
Do supporters need an app?
No. Tap the sticker with an iPhone or Android and the organization’s page opens. That’s it.
How long do we fundraise—and how long does the sticker last?
Plan a focused fundraiser for a few weeks. Supporters receive a full year of access for their sticker edition. Your organization’s launch setup confirms the edition dates; a new sticker is available for the next year’s fundraiser.
Where should the sticker go?
A clean, non-metal surface works best and gives your phone the most reliable tap.
