For PTAs, PTFAs and school associations

Raise £5 for your school, every time a family prints their year

Families print a year of their own photos into a hardcover book. All the association has to do is share a code.

Nothing to buy in, store or sell on, and the code keeps working all year.

What families are buying

Their year, off the phone and into their hands

The app analyses a year of a parent's camera roll, picks the best photos, lays out the pages and prints a hardcover book. About ten minutes, and no design skill at all.

  • Hardcover, 8 inches square
  • The app chooses the photos, the parent just approves them
  • £39.99 delivered, the same price with or without your code

What we give you

We make the materials. You just share them.

Tell us how you actually reach families and we will make it for you.

Whatever you actually use

A flyer sized for the class WhatsApp group, a poster for the gate, a paragraph for the newsletter, a slide for parents' evening. Ask and we design it.

Your own code

It carries your association's name, so parents see who it supports when they enter it at checkout. It does not expire.

A page for parents

A link with your school and your code already filled in, explaining the whole thing, so nobody has to remember a code or work out what this is.

A free book for your raffle

We donate a voucher for a complete book so you can use it as a tombola or raffle prize. That costs the association nothing either.

Timing

It runs all year. A nudge at the right moment does the work.

Families can order whenever they like. In practice most of the money comes from a few weeks a year, so we suggest picking two or three and mentioning it then.

  1. September. Back to school, and a whole year just gone.

  2. Late November. A book of the year makes the present for grandparents.

  3. January. Everyone is looking back at the year just finished.

  4. July. The school year ending, and leavers in particular.

Tell us which you are going for and we will have the materials with you beforehand.

For the committee

Fundraising that needs no volunteers

Nothing to buy in, nothing to store, nothing to hand out and no float to count. We design the flyers, posters and wording, you share them however you already reach families, and we pay the association directly.

Step 1

Ask us for a code

One email with your school name. We set up a code with your association's name on it, so parents see it at checkout.

Step 2

We send your pack

Your code, the parent page link, the materials you asked for and a voucher for a book you can raffle.

Step 3

We pay the PTFA

Every order against your code is counted. We total it up monthly and pay the association directly.

What we never ask you for

No class lists. No pupil names. No school photographs. No parent contact details. Families build their book from the photos already on their own phone, so there is nothing for the school to gather, check or consent to. It is one of the few fundraisers that creates no data protection work at all.

Get your school's code

Or just email hello@milliontinymoments.com and we will set it up.

Questions committees ask

What does it cost the PTFA?

Nothing. There is no fee, no minimum order and no commitment. If nobody uses the code, the school simply raises nothing and you have lost nothing.

Do we have to buy, store or hand out anything?

No. There is no stock, no order forms and no money to collect. The whole thing is a code you share, and we make the flyer, poster or wording you need to share it with.

Do parents pay more because of the donation?

No. A book is 39.99 pounds delivered with the code or without it. The 5 pounds comes out of our margin, not out of the family's pocket.

Do you need any pupil data, photos or names from the school?

None at all. We never ask for a class list, a pupil name or a school photograph. Families build their book from the photos already on their own phone, and we never see the school's data.

What are the photos actually of?

Whatever is on that family's camera roll: holidays, birthdays, the dog, a wet Tuesday in the park. It is their family year, not a school yearbook, so nothing needs organising or approving by the school.

How do we know how much we have raised, and when are we paid?

Every order placed with your code is counted against it, so we can tell you exactly how many books it came from. We total it up monthly and pay the association directly. Ask us for a running total any time in between. You get a number, never a list of who ordered.

What happens if a parent forgets the code?

That order will not count towards the school, which is the one thing worth repeating whenever you mention it. The code is the only thing linking a purchase to your PTFA.

How long does the code last?

It does not expire, so it can sit somewhere permanent all year. Most of the money still comes from a few well timed reminders though, usually September, late November, January and the end of the summer term.

Ready when you are.

£5 a book for your PTFA. Nothing to buy, store or sell, and the code works all year. Tell us your school and we'll set it up.
