How to fundraise for a sports team without the car wash

Updated June 12, 2026 · Good Circles

You can fund a youth sports team without car washes or selling by capturing spending families already do. With Good Circles, team families shop local, save about 10%, and 10% of the merchant’s profit goes to your team automatically each month — funding uniforms, travel, and gear with no products to push.

Retire the car wash

Uniforms, tournament fees, and travel add up fast, and the usual fundraisers ask families to sell things or give up a Saturday. A no-cost shopping program funds the team from purchases families already make, so the money comes in without the hustle.

How it works

Sign up your team or booster club free with your 501(c)(3) details, families select your team as their cause, and a share of every local purchase they make is routed to you monthly. See team fundraising »

What the money can cover

The funding is recurring and unrestricted — useful for uniforms, equipment, travel, facilities, or tournament fees. Families also save about 10% on local purchases, so they come out ahead.
