This document outlines a fundraising program called FunDAZ that helps schools raise money through the sale of discount savings cards. It works by collecting discounts from local businesses, creating a website with those discounts, selling cards to access the discounts, and giving the school 50% of proceeds. Schools can expect to raise $5,000-$7,500 from selling 500 cards, $10,000-$15,000 from 1000 cards, or $20,000-$30,000 from 2000 cards. The funds can be used for a variety of school programs and needs. Interested schools should contact Tom Baker to discuss launching a FunDAZ campaign.
