About Earning Referral Rewards for Your Team
Here is an Easy Way to Help Your Favorite FIRST Team Receive More Funding
Earn referral rewards for your favorite team when you use their invitation custom link to invite educators to create wish lists on ClassWish.org. You can find that link by going to their fundraising page on ClassWish and clicking the banner that says, "Invite Teachers. . ."
Win-Win!
This is a win-win opportunity to help educators you invite, their students, and our team, all at the same time.
Four Million Opportunities to Earn Referral Rewards
Invite educators (teachers, student-teachers, administrators, librarians, coaches, school nurses, guidance counselors, etc.), as well as PTA, PTO, and booster club leaders. Invite these people from your school, from other schools in your community, or from any public, private, or parochial K-12 school in the United States.
Sending Invitations is Quick and Easy
We provided text you can use for:
- emails to educators and for PTA/PTO/booster club leaders
- Facebook posts
- Tweets
Be sure to insert your team’s custom invitation URL, as described above, in the invitations!
How It Works
ClassWish makes it easy:
- If educators use your team’s custom invitation link when they join ClassWish, their account will be associated with your team’s account.
- When they get donations during the first year after joining, your team will earn referral rewards equal to 3% of those donations. (No, it does not come out of the educator’s donations; ClassWish’s vendor suppliers fund the referral rewards).
- The rewards will be credited to your team wish list as the invited educators have ClassWish use their funds to buy supplies and equipment for them.
Be Sure to Follow Up
People typically need to see a message several times before they act on it, so be sure to check regularly if the educators you invite have created a wish list. If not, just send them a follow-up invitation (again, with our team’s custom link). Be sure to re-post invitations regularly via Facebook, Twitter, etc., too.
Inviting Other FIRST Teams
Please do invite other FIRST teams to ClassWish in the spirit of coopertition. We prepared sample text for emails, Facebook, and twitter, which you can find here:
Invitations to FIRST teams helps students, but they do not generate referral rewards. That is because ClassWish most often distributes cash to FIRST teams and does not have the chance to earn a payment from a vendor partner, as it does with donations for other educators.
Reporting
Your FIRST team leader can see accepted invitations and credited referral rewards on the team's Account page.
