Not all families have the same ability to pay for a class trip. Letting the class raise the money itself makes the trip possible for everyone — and removes a sensitive topic from the parents' meeting.
The problem with splitting the cost evenly
When the trip is split equally among all parents, it's inevitable that some find it harder to pay than others. That can mean students don't come along — or that the topic creates a bad atmosphere. A shared fundraiser solves it: everyone contributes by selling, not by paying out of their own pocket.
How a fundraiser works instead
The class gets its own store and each student a personal sales link. The students sell clothing to family and friends. Customers choose Stripe to Rius for home delivery or Swish to the class for pickup. The class receives 35% of the VAT-inclusive product amount. It costs nothing to get started and no one has to be out of pocket.
What it can give
- A class of 28 students selling 2,000 kr each brings in ~19,600 kr.
- That often goes a long way toward a class trip — without a single parent invoice.
Example amounts at 35% commission. Actual revenue varies.
Fair and inclusive
Because everyone contributes in the same way — by selling — it's fair regardless of a family's finances. And because it's a shared project, the class's sense of community grows along the way.
