Introducing The Fundraising Club Lottery

Written by Mark Fletcher | Sat, 1 Feb 25

Over the last 6 months, the founders of Pitchero have been working hard to create a new digital lottery for all clubs called The Fundraising Club Lottery.

The lottery's objective is to provide clubs, big and small, with a new source of regular fundraising through monthly grants. This week over 200 clubs joined a Webinar to learn more, you can watch the webinar video below to understand the full offering.  

 

Is your club interested in supporting The Fundraising Club Lottery? If so, complete the form below, and a member of the team will be in touch shortly. 

Why join the Fundraising Club Lottery?

More than ever, clubs need support to raise funds. The cost of running a club has increased, and sources of funds are decreasing.

Many clubs have ambitious investment plans to create new pitches, refurbish changing rooms, and develop new facilities. We can not allow these plans to stall or be forgotten.

The Fundraising Club Lottery is instant fundraising for every club.

Promote the lottery, sell tickets to your members and earn grants from every ticket sold.

 

How does a Club benefit from The Fundraising Club Lottery

It's very easy. All clubs can become Affiliates of the lottery and promote their own lottery landing page. Through the affiliate page, the club will earn £6 from every ticket sold. 

The lottery is a recurring monthly draw. One ticket over 12 months will earn the club £72.

If your club sells 100 tickets, the club will earn £7,200 over 12 months.

Grants are paid to a club every month, providing regular recurring cash flow.

 

Do we have to be a Pitchero member club?

NO. Any club can support The Fundraising Club Lottery. Clubs that do not use the Pitchero club website platform will be given a custom landing page.

However, Pitchero clubs benefit from having a lottery page built into their website and integrated with their membership database.

 

Is there a cost to the club or lots of extra admin?

No. The Lottery has zero cost to the club and requires minimal club admin.
