That's the entire campaign: one link, one newsletter, one reminder flyer.
What your school could earn
Every order counts. The program runs ongoing, not just for two weeks โ families can order any time of year (birthdays, holidays, back-to-school) and your school earns on every order.

A product worth buying โ not just to help the school
Read & Paint fundraisers work because families actually want the product. Each Read & Paint Kit is a children's book plus a matching pre-traced canvas, easel and paints: your child reads the story, then paints a scene from it.
- Whole-brain learning โ reading + art in one kitEngages language, logic, creativity and fine motor skills together.
- A gift parents are proud to giveScreen-free, educational and fun โ nobody feels guilted into buying it.
- Ships directly to the family's doorNo pick-up day, no mix-ups, no forgotten orders.
