For schools, PTAs and daycares

Every class gift can give back to your school.

Teacher gifts, a coach’s thank-you, a principal’s farewell: families already chip in all year. With KadoPool, those gifts give twice — to the person celebrated, and to your school.

Three ways the money comes in

Gifts that give twice

Room parents link the gift for a teacher, the whole staff or a coach to your school or PTA: 30% of KadoPool’s fee on each goes to you, and it never comes out of the gift. Usually $1 to $3 a gift.

Your own donation pools

A class trip fund, new library books, art supplies, a playground: run it as a donation pool and share it with one link or QR code. Each donation goes to your Stripe account as it is made.

Donations in someone’s honor

For a retiring teacher or a much-loved principal, families give to your school in their honor instead of a present. They receive a KadoBook of everyone’s messages.

Schools, PTAs and daycares the IRS recognizes as nonprofits can be partners (a public school usually joins through its PTA or PTO). Donation pools: when donations to you are tax-deductible (501(c)(3)).

Join in a few minutes

  1. Claim your school or PTA at kadopool.com/claim: find it, tell us who you are, add your EIN — we confirm your nonprofit status with the IRS.
  2. Connect Stripe to be paid. Already using Stripe? Sign in to reuse your details. New to Stripe? Your free account is set up right there.
  3. Tell your families. Share our postcard with room parents, and the link to each of your donation pools.

The basics, plainly

  • Free for your school, with no commitment.
  • Paid through Stripe: your share every quarter once it reaches $50, otherwise once a year from $25, less Stripe’s payout fee. Donations reach your Stripe account as they are made, and your bank when the pool closes.
  • Unrestricted: the 30% is a referral fee paid by KadoPool, not a donation from families. Field trips, art supplies, repairs: your school decides.
  • No admin work: we handle payments, notifications and support — no cash in envelopes.
“This was not built to be the next unicorn. This was built to solve a real problem and do good at the same time.”
