Why Dance Teams Choose HypeRaise

Dance teams compete at a high level but rarely have the booster infrastructure of football or basketball. Parents are committed but stretched. HypeRaise makes it easy to raise money online without organizing a bake sale or selling items door to door.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do dance teams use HypeRaise to raise money?

Dance teams fundraise with HypeRaise by running a peer-to-peer campaign where each team member gets a personal fundraising link. The director or booster treasurer manages the campaign from an administrator dashboard and receives funds directly through Stripe.

Can competitive dance teams outside of school programs use HypeRaise?

Yes. HypeRaise is used by both school-affiliated dance programs and independent competitive dance teams. The platform works the same way regardless of whether the organization is a school program or a nonprofit club.

When should a dance team run a HypeRaise campaign?

Competition-season fundraising campaigns typically run in late summer or early fall, before major competition expenses hit. Some programs run a second campaign in January ahead of national competitions.
