–Kathy Marchetti, past PTO President and GR5 Teacher, Witchcraft Heights Elementary School, Salem, MA
- The work is DONE-FOR-YOU
- 50% profit automatically paid when generated
- Excites students into reading via a multi-award-winning book about THEM
- No selling required
- NONE of the traditional fundraising gotchas
Compared to a Scholastic Book Fair, we offer DOUBLE the cash percentage for 1/100th of the work.
The Un-Raiser can easily be done in conjunction with their book fair, but you’ll make more money doing it BEFOREHAND.
The Un-Raiser’s personalized mystery gets students EXCITED about reading, leading them to want more books from the book fair after reading it.
It’s just an easy fundraiser to kickoff the school year, making money without the hassle of other fundraisers.
If you aren’t doing a book fair, we offer the magnified benefit of more reading excitement without the pain of setup, staffing, inventory, money counting, tracking, reporting, and school space requirements. It’s all done FOR you.
This fund streaming system was conceived and is supported by Children’s Literacy Innovations, a non-profit, to help achieve their goal of getting elementary-aged children excited about reading.
“Our #1 book choice for grades 3-6 to get students to WANT to read!”
“Nothing has gotten my students more excited about reading than the Sherlock and Me personalized mystery. They beg for the chance to read about themselves.”
The world's first interactive, choose-your-path, personalized mystery for kids. Winner of multiple awards including a Ben Franklin award for innovation in children's literature.
The Un-Raiser Funding System
Compared to a Scholastic Book Fair, we offer double the cash percentage for a hundredth of the effort.
How does it work?
● Every student gets the first chapter of the multi-award-winning book about THEM for free. GR3-6 books are set to the standard edition and K-2 books are pre-set to the junior “read-about-me-to-me” configuration.
● At the end of the first chapter, parents can purchase the balance of the book at a discount
● The child and parents can also share an individualized code with friends, cousins, anyone to create THEIR own first free chapter, with sales from those exposures credited to the school. You’ll have money streaming in from across the country.
● For each purchase—within the school or shared outside of the school—your school receives 50% of the sale electronically.
● Along the way, the students earn popular rewards and prizes! We also help with classroom competition for the most shared books that get activated (purchased). We are also open to any ideas you think will benefit your goals.
● It’s a DONE-FOR-YOU system. We handle everything—sales tracking, automatic electronic payments to you, messaging and support—we even provide videos for informing parents AND students, pre-written communications that you can modify, and if you need ANY form of communication to help your cause, we’ll provide that, too—the easiest, most fun fundraiser you have ever done!
Why is THIS book better for fundraising than anything else?
1. It is the world’s first and only mystery starring the reading child as main character and hero. What child does not want to read about (or be read to about) themselves as hero at their own school?
2. The book won multiple awards and has rave reviews.
3. In addition to the school, we reward each child for their or their parents’ efforts in giving away free chapters. Prizes include juggling lessons, free products, and even a family Zoom call with the book’s author! Classrooms also compete for a Zoom session with the author based on the number of activations of their shares.
Children, parents, teachers, cafeteria workers, parents—ANYBODY with a code related to your school is allowed to share. Watch as money comes streaming in via books shared all over the country. And don’t be surprised by reading specialists and librarians becoming enamored with this book and sharing free chapters everywhere.
