Between gear, travel, and that one coach who keeps saying “we’ll just figure it out,” football fundraising can spiral fast. So here’s a quick hit list of painfully real moments you’ve probably lived if you’ve ever tried to raise money for a football team.

You know you’re running a football fundraiser when…

• You’ve Venmo’d 12 parents and 3 of them still don’t know what a QR code is.
• The coach said “just do what we did last year,” but no one remembers what that was.
• Your group chat has 47 unread messages and none of them answer your actual question.
• You’re explaining why a $5 raffle ticket isn’t enough to buy 30 new helmets.
• The only people who came to the car wash were already clean.
• Someone said “Let’s do a spaghetti feed!” and you blacked out.
• You now own a square reader, a cooler full of Gatorade, and absolutely zero free time.
• You raised $187 and lost a weekend.
• You Googled “fastest way to fundraise for football teams” and landed here.

There’s a better way.
