SPORTS AND SCHOOL FUNDRAISING PARTNERSHIP
The Power of Partnering with COLA Today
Traditional fundraising often feels like a burden—awkward requests and forced donations that strain your neighbors' wallets. COLA changes everything. By simply redirecting the money they already spend on lawn care to our licensed, insured experts, residents unlock powerful tax deductions while fueling residual grants for your programs. It is a smarter way to give that costs them nothing extra, turning routine maintenance into a lasting legacy for our local schools and leagues.
We turn a routine chore—lawn maintenance—into a steady source of income for your organization. When neighbors opt for COLA’s expert care, we donate right back to your cause. Get pristine yards and ongoing financial aid without the hassle of door-to-door sales or complex logistics. Join our mission and thrive.
How the Program Works
1. Promote COLA in your local area
2. Neighbors book their mowing
3. Your group gets funded
We supply professional flyers, unique QR codes, and talking points to share with your friends and neighbors.
