PitchFunder is a program designed to empower the ASU community to raise the funds they need for the projects they're passionate about. Our program provides groups the training, tools, and technology necessary to raise support for groups, projects, and events. PitchFunder will train your team to raise money by reaching out to your personal networks — friends, family, colleagues and other contacts —
and inviting them to get involved by making a contribution. Our program includes assistance from student Crowdfunding Account Managers, our full-time PitchFunder coordinator, and the ASU Foundation's Office of Annual Giving. Because the ASU Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, donations made through our platform are charitable contributions. We take care of all the gift receipting for your donors and all additional paperwork required.
95 percent of all funds your campaign raises will be designated directly to your account, even if you don’t reach your goal. The remaining 5 percent goes to a general fund in support of ASU. The average PitchFunder campaign raises $4500 from around 55 donors, is powered by a fundraising team of 20 people, is “live” for 30 days, but requires about 3 months of commitment from start to finish.
