Our take

Youth activities are a vital part of children’s creative and sporting life growing up, but public schools and groups often struggle to raise the funds needed for them. This is what Snap! Raise takes aim at, with its fundraising platform geared towards group and team activities for kids.

Where Snap! Raise sets itself apart is with the automated features it offers. Rather than just a funding page, it shows you a list of everyone you’ve contacted with a fundraising email, how many times you’ve contacted them, and separates them into groups of those who have and haven’t donated as well as showing how much each donor has given. These analytics help users to work out where to target resources for further support.

It operates within a tough market, GoFundMe is the dominant player in fundraising, and there are rival startups aimed at helping run and finance youth teams, like TeamSnap and RallyUp. However, Snap! Raise has some unique functionalities and has been active in its acquisitions, partnerships, and funding to boost its position.
