A tuition-based pre-K through 12 education is a big commitment, and not every family can carry it alone. Lite Tuition is a free, debt-free way to raise money toward the cost of that tuition. It is a resource your school simply shares with its families, with nothing for the school to set up or host.
Parents run the campaign for their child
A parent or guardian starts and runs a campaign on behalf of their child. You choose a title, a goal, a photo, a short story, and a required end date, then invite family, friends, and community to give. Our team reviews every campaign before its page goes public, and you hear back within 48 hours. Your campaign can be public or private, and you run one active campaign at a time.
Simple, secure giving
Contributors give securely through PayPal, with a $10 minimum gift, and they can choose to cover the fees so your school receives the full gift toward your child. Lite Tuition keeps a flat 5%, and PayPal charges its own processing fee.
Money that goes straight to school
When your campaign closes, the money is released to your child's school, in care of your child, toward tuition and the costs the school bills for, once a school is selected. It is never cash, never a loan, and nothing to pay back.
Families at tuition-based pre-K through 12 schools use Lite Tuition to:
- Raise money toward tuition without taking on debt
- Rally family, friends, and community around their child
- Send every gift straight to the school in care of the child
- Ease the cost of a great education
