The Fine Print

What is #SchoolSupplied?
We know that basic supplies go fast at the beginning of the year, so we are going to make sure you have a box full of the supplies that you need most! The three schools that raise the most points on PledgeCents between August 3rd and September 30th, 2015 will win these supplies!

How do I enter?
Easy! When you create your next cause, you will have the option to click the “enter the contest” button to enter. Or new to the site? When you sign up, you will enter information about your school and then proceed to create a cause where you can opt in to the competition.

How do I earn points?
There are four ways to earn points for your school or organization.

  • for every dollar invested: 5 points
  • for every Facebook share: 10 point
  • for every cause created: 20 points
  • for every cause that reaches its goal: 100 points
Bonus: for every $500 a school or organization raises, it will receive an additional 200 points.

Does my cause have to end before September 30, 2015?
No. Your cause can continue after the deadline, but you are only eligible to receive points for any changes that occur by September 30th, 2015 at 11:59pm CST.

Who can create a cause?

What can I raise funds for?
You can raise funds for any school or classroom need. If it will positively impact students, you can raise funds for it. The sky is the limit!

How will I know how many points my school/organization has?
Every night after 12:30AM CST, we will update the scoreboard to reflect all changes from that day. Be sure to check back nightly to see how your school or organization is doing!

What supplies will be in the box? When will we receive them?
We will coordinate with the winning school or organization, and they should expect to receive the supplies within a few weeks of the end of the competition.
