HELPING ATHLETES
STAY IN THE GAME.
Arizona’s free youth sports fundraising foundation. No EIN required. 100% of raised funds go to your team.
Sports Cost Too Much. We’re Here to Change That.
Registration fees, uniforms, travel, and equipment costs have priced millions of kids out of youth sports. For underfunded programs, the gap between a great team and a funded team comes down to one thing: access to money.
For many families, that number is the reason their athlete sits out.
Without an EIN, tax-deductible fundraising is out of reach — until now.
Programs that can’t fundraise effectively face impossible choices every season.
How ABF Helps
Tax-Deductible Fundraising
We run donation campaigns under our 501(c)(3) so any team can raise money with tax-deductible receipts for donors — no EIN required. 95% of every donation goes directly to your team.
Cost-Saving Programs for Teams
We connect teams with vetted partners offering discounts on uniforms, gear, meals, travel, and nutrition — cutting the everyday costs that eat program budgets.
Resources for Athletes & Families
NIL education, scholarship opportunities, recruiting guides, and operational tools — the resources youth sports programs can’t afford to pay for on their own.
How the Money Works
| Program | Team Keeps | ABF Keeps |
|---|---|---|
| Donation Campaign | 95% of all donations | 5% admin fee |
| Ripped Jerky Fundraiser | 20% of each sale (team keeps all) | $0 |

| Direct Donations to ABF | N/A — used for programs & operations | 100% |
ABF is a free service for teams on product fundraisers. We charge a 5% admin fee only on Donation Campaigns to cover platform costs. See our full financials →
