Why Choose Raised?

Givealittle is a good fit for one-off donation drives. But most schools and clubs fundraise by selling products, and that is where Raised comes in.

Product-Based Fundraising

Raised lets you sell actual products through your campaign. That is how most NZ schools and clubs raise money, and Givealittle simply does not support it.

End-to-End Management

From setting up your product catalogue to tracking orders and managing delivery, Raised handles it all. No more spreadsheets.

Wholesaler Network

Connect directly with NZ wholesalers through the Raised marketplace. Find products, place orders, and get started quickly.

Flexible Payments

Accept cash, Tap to Pay, and online payments. Cash payments have zero processing fees, which means more money for your cause.
