I wanted to let you know what a pleasure it was working with Nick for our fundraising event. As a first year softball coach in a program that hasn’t done a fundraiser in years it was a challenge for us. Nick patiently went through every product with me so we could determine what would be the right fundraiser for our program. It was a great success for our first fundraiser and I look forward to having an even more successful fundraiser next year with Nick and New Hampshire Athletic Fundraising.

AREA YOUTH FOOTBALL, based in Rumford, Maine just held our Subway Pocket Pass fundraiser. I have to be honest, I had my doubts. Too good to be true. Andrew gave me a couple of references. I did check with both. They both had great experiences. Andrew was very helpful, and we had our most successful fundraiser ever. Thanks to Maine Athletic Fundraising for reaching out to our youth football program.

Portland Youth Football has traditionally had multiple fundraisers (car wash, raffles, etc), and this year Andrew set us up with the Premium Gold Card program and we were extremely pleased with the results. Not only did we exceed our fundraising goal, but it was less work on our volunteer’s since Andrew did all the leg work. We just had to sell the cards. MAF made sure we had everything we needed to be successful. Thanks!

I’ve been the Head Coach at Mt. Blue HS for the past 18 years. During that time I have been involved in numerous fundraisers. Maine Athletic Fundraising is by far the best fundraising company I have dealt with. When fundraising during the season it is so important to have a great support system. MAF allows my staff to be successful in raising money along with giving us the time to do the most important thing…Coach Our Players.

The Program
Maine Athletic Fundraising takes great pride in providing teams and groups with the best products on the market. What people appreciate when working with us is the brief, individualized fundraising program that we use. Our fundraisers only last 7-21 days so coaches/instructors and their teams can quickly return to concentrating on their season. Maine Athletic Fundraising will work with you every step of the way as we understand that you can’t be expected to be an expert in the fundraising business – that’s what we do best. We want you to succeed just as much as you want to succeed.
The great thing about Maine Athletic Fundraising is that no matter what product you sell, the program is always similar. Listed below are a few key components of our fundraising program.
Game Plan Meeting
We understand the importance of being prepared, which is why we schedule coaches/instructors meetings prior to the fundraiser. We personally come and meet you! The meeting takes 15-20 minutes to review important dates, set goals, go over the prizes that we will give to the team/group for being successful, and most importantly, we emphasize in this meeting what it takes to maximize the fundraiser.
Kickoff
The next part of the program is kicking off the fundraiser. This is where a Maine Athletic Fundraising representative visits the team/group, explains all the details of the fundraiser, and gets it started. This takes about 20–25 minutes. The representative and coach/instructor will set forth the expectations of the fundraiser and give the team any other info they might need to go out and do a stellar job.
Checkpoint(s)
Checkpoint(s) are very important to your program. It’s a midway point to see how the team/group is doing with hitting their goals, making sure that we still have 100% participation, and to kick the team into overdrive for the last few days before this program is over.
Blitz
The blitz is when the team/group wears jerseys and canvasses the area selling for a period of time. Everything concludes at this event and the team/group walks away with their profit. In addition, prizes for meeting and exceeding expectations are given to the participants after the blitz.
Prizes
We give out all prizes on the day of the Blitz. These prizes are provided by us, so your team/group doesn’t have to worry about losing any profit on the fundraiser. We’ve found that cash prizes are a great way to motivate sellers, and we also like to give away personalized gear to participants who exceed expectations. Free product is also given to participants. Without a doubt, Maine Athletic Fundraising will give more back in prizes/incentives than any other company you could ever work with! Please compare us!

Maine Athletic Fundraising
Maine Athletic Fundraising is the right choice for your fundraising needs. We cover the state of Maine, NH, Mass, and VT. We have worked with high school, and youth athletic programs to raise millions of dollars since 2008! Our service and program is more than just a product to sell.
Our goal is two-fold: First, we strive to help teams meet their financial goals by raising more money in less time. Secondly, we connect these teams with local and national merchants, with the ultimate goal to bring merchants more business & help to promote their brand recognition within the communities. A win for the team, merchant & consumer!
Every year teams depend on Maine Athletic Fundraising to help them reach their financial goals. We’ve spent years refining our program & have gained an understanding of what works & what doesn’t in fundraising.
We start out by building a distinctive fundraiser for each team we work with. We then put our products in the hands of our teams. Using their family, friends & door-to-door techniques, participants penetrate the community distributing & selling the product. We reward those that reach preset goals with a generous prize program.
Most fundraising companies do little for you, but we’re in constant contact with our schools, coaches & merchants to ensure that our program is never a burden on anyone that participates. We sponsor & give back … please see our partners page. Our program works!
- We walk you through a complete Game Plan and help you achieve your financial goals.
- Maine Athletic Fundraising helps your program run a profitable fundraiser at NO RISK, NO UPFRONT COSTS & NO MINIMUMS.
Whether you are a coach, booster, PTA leader, or someone from a non-athletic program, we are here for all of you! We welcome you to explore the site or contact us at 207.468.1759 or by email at info@maineaf.com.
