Piggybackr is an online fundraising platform that teaches young people how to raise money for their teams, schools, and communities while helping them develop key 21st century skills.
It's easy, effective, and merit-based.
We're excited to bring a largely offline activity online so that organizations can raise more and to make it more meaningful life experience.
