Who does what?
SmartSlaps Foundation
Reviews requests, confirms available supplies, processes gifts through its campaigns, coordinates recipient support, and maintains its reporting records.
Adult organizers and donors
Use a team’s own link for team credit, identify the intended recipient, and keep public stories accurate. Creating a supporter team does not authorize use of a school’s name or logo.
Begin with a manageable plan.
- Read the school challenge guide and family participation guidance.
- Confirm your organization’s approval and an adult point of contact.
- Request the Guardian quantities you need. Availability and delivery details require confirmation.
- If fundraising is part of your plan, check for an existing team and agree on a specific school priority.
- Track confirmed deliveries and activities, then share a dated update without identifying individual children.
SmartSlaps can reduce product-sale administration. It does not replace your institution’s approval, financial, or safeguarding responsibilities.
Know what the reporting proves.
Raised is a campaign total. Sent or issued is a disbursement status. Received or cleared requires the corresponding confirmation. Used for the mission requires a recipient update or supporting record.
Recipient support is delivered or sent on the 1st of each month. We update our reporting sheet to reflect it. Sent, delivered, and bank-cleared payments can have different dates. Ask us about the timing or status of a particular gift.
SmartSlaps does not retain a portion of recipient-designated donations. Donors cover the platform and payment-processing fees shown at checkout; Givebutter tips are off. Foundation gifts separately support materials, shipping, technology, and mission operations.
Request institution-specific records or raise a discrepancy at hello@smartslaps.org. The public dashboard is a view of the Foundation’s reporting source, not an independent audit opinion.
Children can participate without fundraising.
Learning and service are worthwhile on their own. No child needs a donation, public profile, personal fundraising target, or student account to take part. Adults handle the organization, gifts, and communications.
