Fee Transparency
How the Money Works
| Program | Your Team Keeps | NBF Keeps | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Donation Campaign | 95% of donations | 5% admin fee | Covers platform costs & 501(c)(3) umbrella |
| Ripped Jerky Fundraiser | 20% of each sale (team keeps all) | $0 | NBF earns nothing; all team profit goes to your program |
| Gold Athletics Gold Card | $12.50 per $25 card sold | $0 | NBF earns nothing; all team profit goes to your program |
| Direct Donations to NBF | N/A | 100% | Used entirely for nonprofit programs and operations |
NBF charges a 5% admin fee only on Donation Campaigns to cover platform and processing costs. Product fundraisers (Ripped Jerky, Gold Card) carry no NBF fee — 100% of your team's profit is yours. See our full financials →
Fundraising
A campaign page that names the real charity
Parents still sell snacks. What changed is that a business donor often will not write the larger check unless a public charity can acknowledge it. Most teams never become that charity themselves.
On this site, the acknowledgment comes from Arizona Boosters Foundation, Inc. National is how a team outside Arizona requests the page, the product fundraiser, or the discount card. We do not ask you to pretend National has its own exemption.
What You Get
- Custom online campaign page with photos, story, and progress meter
- A written acknowledgment for every donor
- Multiple payment options including credit, ACH, and offline donations
- Donor tracking and easy thank-you communications
- Coach and parent training on running a successful campaign
Who It's For
- High school team fundraising for travel, tournaments, and equipment
- Youth sports fundraising for leagues and clubs
- Booster club support for both new and established organizations
- Teams without an EIN that need 501(c)(3) backing
- Teams in any U.S. state, including programs that will never file their own exemption
How the Money Flows
Donation-campaign gifts are made to Arizona Boosters Foundation, Inc., EIN 39-3080525. Donors receive a written acknowledgment from that charity. The foundation then disburses the team share — 95% — for the approved sports purpose. Product fundraisers are different: National does not take a fee from the team’s jerky or Gold Card cut. Details are on the fee page and on the parent financials.
Most teams launch their first NBF-backed campaign within a week of reaching out.
Process
From Idea to Funded in 4 Steps

Donations Roll In
Donors give online or offline. Each receives a written acknowledgment.
4
Funds Disbursed

Tax-deductible team donations
No team EIN? Use the parent charity’s.
The blocker is usually paperwork, not effort. Donors need a recognized charity. Qualifying teams campaign with National, and the receipt names Arizona Boosters Foundation, Inc. You do not file a new exemption, and we do not issue a National EIN.
