Richfield-Bloomington Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi

March Calendar Raffle Campaign, March 2026. 272 donors. 566 gifts. 30 calendars with gifts.

The model

A simple structure. A collective goal.

A calendar fundraiser works like this: organizers recruit fundraisers. Each fundraiser carries their own 31-day calendar. Their job is to get people in their network to claim days and donate the matching amount.

Day 7 = $7. Day 22 = $22. A full calendar = $496. Every fundraiser multiplies that potential.

1

Organizer launches a campaign

Set the month, recruit your fundraisers, set the goal.

2

Fundraisers share their calendar

Each fundraiser gets a personal calendar page to share with their network.

3

Donors claim a day and give

Pick any open day. Donate that amount or more. Donors can optionally cover infrastructure fees so your org receives 100%.

4

Progress is visible. Repeat monthly.

Fill the calendar. Close the month. Run it again.

Why it works

Structured giving creates shared accountability.

MonthFund is built for calendar fundraisers: organizers launch the month and recruit participants, each fundraiser shares their own day grid, donors claim a day and give that amount (or more), and everyone sees the month fill in public. Clear structure, shared accountability, and day-level amounts everyone can repeat.

  • Clear structure.
  • Shared accountability.
  • Visible progress.
  • People powered.

The multiplier

More fundraisers. More calendars. More raised.

Every fundraiser you activate adds another $496 at face value when that calendar fills. Donor generosity can push it further. The model repeats every month.

Keep the intended gift when donors cover the fees.

We built MonthFund on a simple principle: your donors give to your cause, not to our software. A transparent infrastructure fee is added at checkout on the free plan. Donors see it, understand it, and cover it in one click. Line items are always visible. No surprises.

On Community (free), the infrastructure fee is 3%. On Professional it is 2%. On Network it is 0%. As your volume grows, your subscription covers more of our cost. Card processing is separate through Stripe: typically ~2.9% + $0.30, or ~2.2% + $0.30 for many nonprofits.

  • Donors choose to cover it: Donors can cover it in one click so the cause receives the intended gift.
  • Always visible at checkout: Every line item is shown clearly. Donors know exactly what they are covering and where it goes. No hidden tips, no default opt-ins.
  • Lower fees as you scale: Professional (2%) and Network (0%) reduce the per-donation infrastructure fee. Your subscription covers our cost instead, so more of every dollar stays with your cause.
