RaiseHub for schools
RaiseHub can support district-controlled school groups, student clubs, PTAs, PTOs, booster clubs, teams, and other community organizations. Start by identifying which legal or school entity is actually running the fundraiser.
Choose the right entity
School or district-controlled group
A teacher, sponsor, coach, or campus club should coordinate with the district or campus finance office before entering payout information. RaiseHub will not tell a school-controlled group to create a separate EIN simply to open a fundraiser.
PTA or PTO
Texas generally treats PTAs and PTOs separately from the school’s exempt status. If the parent organization claims an exemption, use the organization’s own approved records rather than the school’s tax identity.
Booster club
Texas does not automatically extend a school’s exempt status to a booster club. The booster club should use its own legal, tax, and payout information when it is the fundraiser owner.
Other nonprofit or community group
Use the organization that is actually authorized to receive the fundraiser proceeds. An EIN identifies an organization, but an EIN by itself does not establish that the organization is tax-exempt.
Student & seller participation
An organization can add seller, student, or participant display names to a campaign roster and generate an individual link and QR code for each person. A student does not need an email address or RaiseHub account for that managed roster entry to receive campaign credit.
Lower-data path
The organizer creates the roster entry, prints or shares the QR code, and can view seller totals. This is the preferred low-data path for younger students.
Optional seller account
A permitted seller can keep the same referral history, see their own results, update their profile, and retrieve their personal link or QR code later.
Public seller links
A seller QR code opens the public campaign purchase page with that seller’s attribution attached. Supporters can see overall fundraiser progress and the seller’s public progress, then purchase a pass or buy a separate pass as a gift. Private seller-account details are not required on the public page.
Official reference links
These links are provided for planning and verification. RaiseHub does not provide legal or tax advice, and a district or organization may have additional local policies.
School-managed computers
If RaiseHub is blocked or your district requires vendor approval, the school access page includes domains, browser requirements, privacy links, and support contacts for review.
