Welcome to the playbook for getting parents fired up and involved in your basketball fundraiser! Parent support is a huge key to fundraising success—and with the right approach, their involvement can turn your campaign into a game-winning shot. With a few smart strategies and clear communication, you’ll make it easy (and exciting) for parents to help your team score big.
Kick things off with a personal invite—because generic emails don’t move the needle. A quick team video, a short personalized text, or even a handwritten note makes parents feel truly included. It’s like a direct pass: it shows you value their support and makes it way more likely they’ll jump in and help your basketball fundraiser succeed.
Parents are way more likely to help when they know what they’re funding. Be clear—are you raising money for new uniforms, tournament travel, equipment, or gym time? A quick kickoff meeting (in person or virtual) where coaches and players share the goal makes it feel like a shared mission, not just another fundraiser.
Parents jump in faster when they know exactly how to help. Assign simple roles based on strengths—social media helper, kickoff-night captain, order distribution lead, or “reminder text” MVP. Just like a great play, everyone has a position, and the fundraiser runs smoother (with way less stress).
Not every parent can volunteer time—and that’s totally okay. Offer a few easy ways to help: sharing the link online, placing a purchase, donating toward a team goal, or helping for one hour at pickup. When you give options, you cover every angle and keep your basketball fundraiser moving like a full-court press.
A little appreciation goes a long way. Shout out helpful parents in emails, social posts, or a quick “thank you” at a game—then consider a small appreciation moment at pickup or the end of the fundraiser. Recognition builds community, boosts morale, and makes parents excited to help again next season.
Momentum loves updates. Share quick progress check-ins—how close you are to the goal, top team milestones, and a couple on-the-court highlights. When parents can see the impact, they stay engaged, keep sharing, and feel like part of the team’s journey.
Remember, a successful basketball fundraiser is all about teamwork, communication, and appreciation. When parents feel informed, valued, and included, they’re far more likely to stay engaged and support your goals. Use these tips to not only hit your fundraising target—but to build a stronger, more connected basketball community that lasts well beyond the season.
