Sports Team Fundraisers Made Easy with Custom Drinkware
Every team has something worth fundraising for—new uniforms, better equipment, tournament fees, travel expenses or improvements to its practice facilities. The challenge is finding a fundraiser that people are genuinely excited to support without creating more work for coaches, parents and volunteers.
We Are The Ripple makes sports team fundraising easier with custom tumblers and water bottles featuring your team logo, mascot or approved artwork.
Your supporters get premium stainless steel drinkware they can use every day. Your team earns money from each qualifying purchase. We handle the products, online store, order processing and fulfillment.
You Sell. We Process.
Custom Team Tumblers and Water Bottles
Team-branded drinkware gives athletes, parents, coaches, alumni and fans another way to show their pride. It is practical, easy to share and useful long after the fundraiser ends.
Choose from a variety of insulated stainless steel tumblers and water bottles in colors that complement your team. We will customize the products with your logo, mascot or team artwork to create a collection made specifically for your organization.
Custom drinkware fundraisers are a great fit for:
- Football teams
- Baseball and softball teams
- Basketball programs
- Soccer clubs
- Cheerleading teams
- Dance teams
- Volleyball teams
- Hockey programs
- Wrestling teams
- Lacrosse teams
- Gymnastics clubs
- Swim teams
- Travel sports organizations
- Community recreation leagues
- School athletic departments
- Booster clubs
Whether you are part of a school team, travel program or community league, we can help create a fundraiser that looks and feels like it belongs to your organization.
Raise Money with Products People Will Use
The best sports team fundraisers give supporters something they actually want.
Custom tumblers and water bottles can travel to practices, tournaments, games, school, work and the gym. Parents can carry their coffee on early tournament mornings. Athletes can bring their bottles to practice. Fans can use their team tumblers throughout the season and beyond.
Each time someone uses the drinkware, your team logo gets noticed. That makes custom drinkware more than a fundraising product—it becomes a lasting display of team pride.
Fundraising on Easy Mode
Your team should be focused on the season, not sorting order forms or managing boxes of merchandise. We make the process straightforward from beginning to end.
1. Tell Us About Your Team
Contact We Are The Ripple and tell us about your organization, fundraising goal and schedule. We will help you select a program that fits your team.
2. Choose Your Drinkware
Select the tumblers and water bottles you would like to offer. Send us your approved team logo, mascot or artwork, and we will prepare your custom products.
3. We Build Your Team Store
We Are The Ripple creates a customized online fundraising page hosted on our website. Your supporters can browse your team collection and place their orders online.
4. Share Your Fundraiser
Send the team-store link to players, parents, relatives, alumni and community supporters. Promote it through email, social media, team communication apps and announcements at games or events.
5. Get Paid
When the fundraiser ends, We Are The Ripple totals the qualifying sales and sends your organization the money it earned. Our team handles online ordering, payment processing and fulfillment, keeping the workload off your coaches and volunteers.
It is fundraising without the usual complications.
No Upfront Inventory to Purchase
Traditional fundraisers can require teams to purchase products before making a single sale. That creates financial risk and can leave the organization with unsold inventory.
With a We Are The Ripple drinkware fundraiser, your team does not need to purchase a large quantity of products upfront. Your supporters order through the team’s online fundraising page, and we process the orders.
There are no stacks of order forms to review, checks to collect or garages full of leftover merchandise.
Built for Your Players, Parents and Fans
A strong fundraiser should connect with the entire team community.
Players can use their custom water bottles at practice. Parents can carry insulated tumblers to work or weekend tournaments. Coaches can use them on the sideline, and alumni can show their support from wherever they live.
Your online fundraiser also makes it easier to reach supporters beyond your immediate community. Friends and family members can visit your team page and purchase without needing a paper order form.
Fundraising with a Bigger Impact
A We Are The Ripple fundraiser does more than support your team.
We donate 10% of our sales to global clean-water access initiatives. Every qualifying fundraiser purchase helps your organization move closer to its goal while also contributing to clean-water projects for communities in need.
Your supporters receive custom team drinkware. Your organization raises money. Together, we help create a ripple effect that extends well beyond the playing field.
