Dance Studio Fundraising Platform

Create a dance campaign for recital costs, competition travel, costumes, training, scholarships, or studio equipment. Organizers can add dancers, issue printable QR cards, track completed gifts, and export reports. No ScanRaise donor app or account is required for QR donations.

Start a Dance Fundraiser

Plan a dance campaign around specific costs

Define the campaign purpose. List the specific recital, travel, costume, training, scholarship, or equipment costs the studio plans to fund.
Choose the giving method. A studio can offer direct online gifts, dancer QR cards, recital tickets, store items, or a combination that fits its fulfillment capacity.
Set the tracking scope. Decide whether completed gifts should be reported by dancer, class, company, or the campaign as a whole.
Document participant privacy. Set organizer-approved display names and follow the studio or school's consent process before publishing participant pages.
Plan payment and reporting. Choose a supported payment mode, identify who reconciles transactions, and decide which reports the studio or booster group needs.
