For Class Trips & Group Travel

The DC trip costs $500 per student. Don't let anyone miss out.

Every student gets their own QR code. Family and community chip in — tracked per student so everyone knows who's funded and who still needs help. No kid left behind.

Sound familiar?

Some families can afford it, some can't. You don't want to leave kids behind because of money. But you can't subsidize everyone from the school budget.

Cookie dough sales barely make a dent. You need $15,000 for 30 kids, not $800 in frozen dough that nobody wanted.

Teachers end up managing money. Cash, checks, Venmo requests — it's chaos and it's not their job. They should be teaching.

GoFundMe takes 2.9% + $0.30 and gives you no per-student tracking. You can't see which student raised what. It's one pool with no accountability.

Payment plans create more paperwork. Tracking who paid what installment is a second job. Snap! Raise takes 20% on top of it all.

ScanRaise fixes all of it

Each student gets a QR code. Family, neighbors, and community members donate directly to that student's trip fund.

Real-time dashboard shows who's funded and who needs help. Teachers see the picture without touching money.

No cash handling. No checks. No Venmo chaos. Everything goes straight to the trip fund digitally.

Run a raffle, sell trip merch, host a fundraiser dinner — all from one platform alongside the QR code drive.

Just 2.5%. Raise $15,000 and keep $14,625. That's $2,625 more than Snap! Raise.
