About

With 84% of school budgets being cut in the next year, both teachers and parents are taking on a rising share of classroom costs. Swellr helps convert everyday spending on shopping and dining into funding for education needs. Our platform enables education fundraisers to raise money for specific needs– like art supplies or books– by getting supporters to buy gift certificates from their favorite local businesses. A % of each sale goes to fund the educational project of the buyer’s choice.
