Round-ups for schools

Everyday spare change that funds your school.

Link a card, pick a school, and every purchase rounds up to the next dollar. The extra cents go straight to the school you chose.

Even-dollar purchases round up nothing.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs on its own.

  1. Link a card

    A parent links a card in the SchoolJar app and picks the school they want to support.

  2. Shop as usual

    Each purchase on that card rounds up to the next dollar. A $4.35 coffee becomes $5.00.

  3. The change goes to school

    The spare change from each purchase, 65¢ in that example, goes to the school.

For schools and PTSAs

Funding that doesn't wait for the next drive.

Steady, year-round support

Money comes in every month, not only during fundraising drives.

No extra asks

Families give while they shop. No new events, no extra work for volunteers.

Small amounts add up

Cents from many families become real funding for the school.

Parents choose

Each family picks the school its spare change supports.
