Terms of Service
Last updated November 2, 2026
What Sponsor the Day is
Sponsor the Day is a tool that lets people (“organizers”) publish a fundraising calendar and lets supporters (“sponsors”) pick days to sponsor. We provide the software only. We do not hold, receive, or transmit anyone's money.
Payments
Payments go directly from sponsors to the organizer through Venmo, PayPal, Zelle, or the organizer's own Stripe account. Each payment service has its own terms and fees. For Venmo, PayPal and Zelle, the organizer confirms receipt by hand. Disputes, refunds and chargebacks are between the sponsor and the organizer.
Organizers
- You must be 18 or older. If a fundraiser is for a child, a parent or guardian must create and manage it.
- You are responsible for being truthful about what the money is for and for using it that way.
- You are responsible for any taxes, permits or charitable-solicitation registration your state or country requires. Gifts to individuals are generally not tax-deductible. Do not describe a gift as deductible unless it goes to a qualifying charity.
- Keep your login and any payment keys private. Tell us right away if you think your account was accessed by someone else.
Sponsors
A sponsorship is a voluntary gift to the organizer. Your name appears on the calendar unless you choose to stay anonymous (the organizer can always see who you are). Days held for you are released if payment is not confirmed in time.
Not allowed
Fraud or misleading fundraisers, illegal activity, harassment, content that exposes private information about others, or anything that harms minors. We may hide a calendar or close an account that breaks these rules. Anyone can report a calendar with the “Report this page” link on it.
Availability and liability
The service is provided “as is”, with no promise that it will always be available or error-free. To the extent the law allows, Sponsor the Day is not liable for lost donations, payment disputes between users, or indirect damages.
Changes and contact
We may update these terms; continuing to use the site means you accept the update. Questions: [email protected].
