Schoola Is Like Groupon For School Fundraising

Schoola

Move over, bake sales: The daily deals business is trying to carve out a new niche in school fundraising. Schoola is a new platform designed for schools to raise money off daily deals from big brands and local businesses. School parents can approach the local businesses they already frequent about offering a deal through the Schoola platform. If the business accepts, it can then determine what percentage of each deal sold will go back to the school–Schoola recommends businesses give back 15%, but says schools have earned as much as 85% of proceeds.
