For families and friends
Class gifts that give back to our school.
Teacher thank-yous, a coach’s end-of-season gift, a farewell for a favorite aide: families already chip in together. Organize those gifts on KadoPool and link them to our school: 30% of KadoPool’s fee goes to our school, and it never comes out of the gift.
How a class gift works
- One parent starts the pool in the free KadoPool app, adds one teacher or the whole team, and links our school so it collects the 30%.
- The app e-mails the invitations; share by WhatsApp or text, or print the QR code. No app needed to chip in.
- Families chip in from the link and can add a message in the app. Reminders go out by themselves, or nudge everyone in one tap.
- Each person gets their own share, privately: gift cards or prepaid cards, with the families’ KadoBook and one thank-you to everyone.
Why families like it
- One pool for the whole team: no separate collection for each teacher, and everyone receives their share in one go.
- No personal Venmo or PayPal, and nobody pays for the gift up front: the money never mixes with anyone’s personal account and stays safe with Stripe until the gift is redeemed.
- No one sees who gave what.
- Easy to pay: card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, in a few taps from the link.
- It’s free to organize.
- Something a gift card can’t do: add a KadoClip, a short video of the families’ messages, and photos if they add them.
- Within the district’s gift rules: the class parent can cap the gift, per family and in total. Families can give the rest to our school as a donation, in the teacher’s honor.
For our school
On every pool linked to our school, 30% of KadoPool’s fee goes to the school, usually $1 to $3 a pool, paid by KadoPool, never by families.
Pool after pool, it adds up: a pizza party for the teachers, new supplies, library books.
