People show up
for people they care about.
That's why fundraising works — not because of a platform, a gimmick, or a mailing list. TradeCraft gets out of the way so your FFA chapter or ag program can support its members directly: a clean share link, an easy way to give, and nothing standing between you and the people who care.
the platform. It's about who's asking.
They don't want another fundraiser catalog. They want to help your chapter.
Most support was never really about the product. Skip the popcorn tins and the markup — let people give directly to what actually matters to them: your students.
A personal ask beats a corporate one
A text from your FFA member outperforms an email from a company every time. TradeCraft keeps the ask personal — from the people donors actually know.
Nothing to fulfill, nothing to wait on
No order forms, no inventory, no shipping. The moment someone gives, it lands directly in your chapter's account — ready to use.
We stay out of your donors' business
We don't collect or sell contact information before a gift is given. Their information stays with you, not us.
TradeCraft is built
around that truth.
We're not trying to be the reason people give — your chapter's community already has one. Our job is to get the money where it's going: straight into your account, with no product to ship and no order form to track.
TradeCraft is a managed fundraising service: for a flat 10% of what's raised, we build your campaign, coach your officer team, and stay hands-on from kickoff through close-out. Chapters in Texas and Southern Oklahoma get a live on-site tele-a-thon included; anywhere else, we run the same campaign and can still bring the event to you, with travel arranged separately. Either way, your members do the sharing and the asking, you keep your donor relationships, and you know exactly what you're paying.

TradeCraft builds your campaign page, donation form, and text message wording, then walks your officer team or advisor through the platform at a kickoff meeting. From there, your members drive the sharing and the asking — and we stay hands-on with planning, coaching, and check-ins the whole way through. Chapters in Texas and Southern Oklahoma get a live on-site event included; anywhere else, we run the same campaign and can still bring the event to you, with travel arranged separately.
Fill out a short intake form with your chapter details, fundraising goal, and campaign window. TradeCraft sets everything up — no software for your advisor to manage.
We meet with your team to walk through the platform, then build your campaign page, donation form, text message wording, and link your Stripe account.
Each FFA member gets a personalized fundraiser page — one tap shares it to text, social, or email. Donors give directly, no account or contact capture required.
At campaign close, TradeCraft delivers a complete reporting package — donor detail, member totals, and accounting-ready exports. One flat 10% fee, nothing hidden.

needs. Nothing extra.
Branded Campaign Page
Your chapter's fundraiser lives on a clean, custom campaign page — set up, customized, and fully hosted by TradeCraft.
Individual Member Share Pages
Every FFA member gets their own fundraiser link — shareable with one tap via text, social, or email. No accounts needed for donors.
Payment Setup & Processing
We link your Stripe account and handle card and ACH processing, so donations land directly with your chapter — never through TradeCraft.
Kickoff Meeting & Platform Walkthrough
We meet with your advisor and officer team before launch to explain how everything works, so nobody's guessing once the campaign is live.
Real-Time Fundraising Totals
Optional live tracking of individual member fundraising totals — keeps members motivated and engaged throughout the campaign.
Complete Reporting Package
QuickBooks-ready accounting exports, full donor and payment detail, member totals, a public recognition list, a thank-you list, and a clean fee breakdown — delivered at campaign close.
On-Site Live Event
Included for chapters in Texas and Southern Oklahoma. Outside that area, we run the same planning and coaching, and can bring the event to you with travel arranged separately.
Incentives & Extras
Keep participation high and donors feeling appreciated — standard with every managed campaign.
Prizes for Top Fundraisers
Standard with every managed campaign, billed from campaign proceeds at close — no flat fee.
Custom Donor Thank-You Gifts
We help plan your donor appreciation strategy. If you'd like TradeCraft to source and order gifts, that's billed separately.
Let's talk.
We never ask for
your contacts.
Simple as that.
Some student fundraising platforms ask kids to upload their contacts — friends, family, coaches — before a single donation is ever made. That's the one thing TradeCraft never does.
We run it with you.
Who Can Use TradeCraft?
TradeCraft works with FFA chapters, agricultural booster clubs, 4-H clubs, and other agricultural education programs nationwide. Your chapter needs a Stripe account (or be willing to create one) to receive donations directly into your account. The live on-site tele-a-thon is included for chapters in Texas and Southern Oklahoma; elsewhere, we run the same planning and coaching with your team, and arrange travel separately for the event. Prizes and custom donor gifts are billed from campaign proceeds at close, not charged upfront.
