Core experience

  • School creates a campaign with a goal, dates, branding, event type, and prize structure.

  • Import students, teachers, grades, and homerooms.

  • Generate a personal page for each student and a classroom page for each class.

  • Families share the student page by text, email, and social.

  • Donors give quickly online with modern checkout options.

  • School admins track donations and participation in real time.

  • Students/classes earn prizes and incentives as milestones are hit.

  • Event day supports run/dance/fitness formats and celebration workflows.

Public-facing donor/parent features

  • Student fundraising page

  • Donation checkout

  • Mobile-first design

  • Apple Pay / Google Pay style fast checkout

  • Multiple language support

  • Campaign progress bars and impact messaging

School admin features

  • Campaign dashboard

  • Student/class import

  • Real-time totals

  • Prize milestone tracking

  • Reports for participation, top classes, top students, totals by class/grade

  • Deposit tracking / payout visibility

Service model options

  • Platform-only / DIY mode

  • Assisted setup mode

  • Full-service mode with playbooks, kickoff materials, and event-day support workflows

For GiveHub, I’d tell Leap to build Version 1 around this narrower scope:

  1. Campaign builder

    • campaign type: Fun Run, Dance Fit, Glow Run, Read-a-thon, General fundraiser

    • school goal

    • start/end dates

    • event date

    • branding/theme

    • prizes/incentives

  2. Roster management

    • import CSV of students/classes/teachers

    • assign each student a slug + optional access code

    • generate classroom rollups

  3. Student pages

    • photo/avatar

    • personal goal

    • fundraising total

    • share buttons

    • donor wall toggle

    • sponsor-per-lap optional mode for later

  4. Donation flow

    • flat donation MVP first

    • recurring optional later

    • fee-cover toggle

    • employer match optional later

    • parent checkout friction as low as possible

  5. Gamification

    • prize tiers

    • class challenges

    • school-wide unlocks

    • leaderboard toggles

    • participation badges

  6. Admin + reporting

    • total raised

    • participation %

    • average gift

    • top classes

    • top students

    • unregistered students

    • payout/export reports

  7. Event-day mode

    • large-screen display

    • countdown

    • live total raised

    • class shout-outs

    • sponsor slides

    • completion/celebration screen

  8. Communications

    • scheduled parent reminder emails/SMS

    • “share your page” nudges

    • last-day urgency sequence

    • post-event thank you flow

That would already cover the visible heart of what Booster is selling publicly.

A strong GiveHub-specific advantage would be:

  • reuse your existing donor/payment stack

  • attach gifts to households/constituents where appropriate

  • let schools run this without needing a separate vendor

  • connect it with GiveHub Messaging, Events, and CRM reporting

Here’s a copy/paste prompt you can give Leap:

Writing

Build a new product at Boost.GiveHub.com modeled after modern school fundraiser platforms like Booster, but do not copy branding or proprietary content.

Goal:
Create a school fundraising platform focused on high-energy campaigns like Fun Runs, Dance Fits, Glow Runs, Read-a-thons, and general school fundraising.

Important:

  • keep schema extensible for future event types

  • prioritize mobile UX and parent ease-of-use

  • build this as a premium GiveHub product for schools, not a one-off campaign page

If you want, I’ll turn this into a full PRD with database tables, routes, roles, and screen-by-screen UI instructions for Leap.

ok, thank you

You’re onto something really strong here — this fits perfectly into GiveHub’s ecosystem.

When you’re ready, I can help you take this to the next level with:

  • A full PRD + database schema (tables, relationships, endpoints for Leap)

  • Exact UI screens (what each page should look like)

  • Gamification strategy that actually beats Booster (this is where you can win big)

  • Sales positioning vs Booster so you can pitch schools confidently

  • Launch funnel + demo script for GiveHub Boost

Just tell me 👍

im ready

Perfect — let’s build this the right way from day one so Leap doesn’t go off the rails.

Below is a clean, structured PRD + build blueprint you can paste into Leap (or use to guide them step-by-step).

🚀 GIVEHUB BOOST — PRODUCT BLUEPRINT (v1)

🎯 Product Goal

A high-conversion, gamified school fundraising platform that:

  • Maximizes parent sharing

  • Drives repeat donations

  • Creates real-time excitement

  • Feels like an “event”, not just a donation form

🧱 1. CORE ARCHITECTURE

🧠 2. CORE USER FLOWS

🏫 ADMIN FLOW (School)

Step 1: Create Campaign

  • Name

  • Goal

  • Dates

  • Event type

  • Theme

Step 2: Upload Roster

CSV:

  • Student name

    • coworkers

👉 This is your VIRAL LOOP

💸 DONOR FLOW

  1. Open student page

  2. See:

    • photo

    • goal

    • progress bar

  3. Tap donate

  4. Quick checkout

  5. Optional message

📱 3. KEY SCREENS (UI SPEC)

🧒 Student Page (MOST IMPORTANT PAGE)

Must include:

  • Student name + photo

  • “Help me reach my goal!”

  • Progress bar

  • Amount raised

  • Big DONATE button

  • Big SHARE button

  • Recent donors (social proof)

  • Prize progress tracker

🏫 Campaign Landing Page

📊 Admin Dashboard

Show:

  • Top students

  • Donations over time (chart later)

🎉 Event Mode (BIG differentiator)

Full screen display:

  • LIVE total 💰

  • Countdown ⏱

  • Student shoutouts

  • “NEW DONATION!” animations

👉 This is where you beat Booster if done right

🎮 4. GAMIFICATION ENGINE (SECRET SAUCE)

🎯 Prize System

Example:

  • $50 → sticker

  • $150 → t-shirt

  • $300 → VIP event

🏁 Class Competition

  • “Top class gets pizza party”

  • Leaderboard toggle

🚀 School Unlocks

  • $10k → principal dresses silly

  • $25k → school-wide event

🔥 Activity Feed (CRITICAL)

Show real-time:

  • “Emma just raised $50!”

  • “3rd Grade is in the lead!”

👉 Creates urgency + FOMO

📣 5. AUTOMATION / MESSAGING

Leverage messages.givehub

Campaign Timeline

Day 1

  • “Your page is live!”

Day 2–5

  • “Share your link”

Mid campaign

  • “You’re halfway!”

🔗 7. INTEGRATION WITH GIVEHUB

This is your unfair advantage:

  • Donations → existing pipeline

  • Donors → CRM (People)

  • Messaging → existing system

  • Reporting → unified

👉 Booster can’t compete here

🧠 8. V1 SIMPLIFICATIONS (IMPORTANT)

Tell Leap:

DO NOT build:

  • pledge-per-lap (yet)

  • complex prize fulfillment

  • multilingual

  • offline mode

👉 Keep it FAST + SHIPPABLE

🚀 9. PHASE 2 (after launch)

  • QR codes for students

  • Teacher dashboards

  • Parent login

  • Sponsor-per-lap

  • Mobile app

  • AI coaching (“send this text to raise more”)

🧨 10. HOW YOU WIN VS BOOSTER

Booster = service company
You = software + automation platform

Your edge:

  • Lower cost

  • Faster setup

  • Better UX

  • Full CRM integration

  • No humans required

🧾 COPY THIS TO LEAP

If you want a shorter directive, send this:

Writing

We are building Boost.GiveHub.com — a gamified school fundraising platform similar to Booster but fully software-driven.

Focus on:

  • campaign creation

  • student fundraising pages

  • donation flow

  • real-time tracking

  • gamification (prizes + leaderboards)

  • messaging automation

  • event-day display mode

Use GiveHub’s existing:

  • payments

  • donor system

  • messaging

MVP must prioritize:

  • mobile-first UX

  • extremely fast donation flow

  • viral sharing from parents

Do NOT overbuild V1.

We will iterate after launch.

If you want next step, I’d strongly recommend:

👉 I design your Student Page UI (pixel perfect)
👉 Or your Admin Dashboard layout
👉 Or your sales demo flow to close schools

Just tell me where you want to go next.

yes please continue

Perfect — this is where you win or lose the entire product.

We’re going to design the 2 most important pieces:

  1. 🧒 Student Fundraising Page (conversion machine)

  2. 🎤 Sales Demo Flow (how you sell this to schools instantly)

🧒 STUDENT PAGE (THIS PRINTS MONEY)

This page = EVERYTHING

If this converts well → you beat Booster
If it doesn’t → nothing else matters

🎯 Goal of This Page

  • Make donating feel emotional + easy

  • Make sharing feel automatic

  • Create urgency + social proof

🧱 EXACT PAGE STRUCTURE (TOP → BOTTOM)

🔝 1. HERO SECTION

  • Student Photo (big, circular)

  • Name:
    👉 “Support Emma Johnson!”

  • Subtext:
    👉 “Help me raise money for Acworth Elementary”

  • 🔥 Progress Bar (VERY visual)

  • Amount:
    👉 $185 raised of $300 goal

💰 2. PRIMARY CTA (ABOVE THE FOLD)

Two buttons:

🟢 DONATE NOW (primary)

  • Large

  • Sticky on mobile

🔵 SHARE MY PAGE (secondary)

  • Opens:

    • Text

    • Facebook

    • Copy link

👉 Booster wins here — you must match or beat this

⚡ 3. QUICK DONATION BUTTONS

Pre-set amounts:

  • $25

  • $50

  • $100

  • $250

👉 Tap = prefilled checkout

🧠 4. STORY / PERSONAL TOUCH

Short customizable text:

“Hi! I’m raising money for my school to help with new equipment and events. Thank you for your support!”

👉 Let parents edit this

🎮 5. PRIZE PROGRESS (HIGHLY MOTIVATING)

Visual tracker:

  • 🎯 $50 → Sticker ✅

  • 🎯 $150 → T-shirt 🔒

  • 🎯 $300 → VIP Event 🔒

👉 Kids LOVE this → drives sharing

🔥 6. LIVE ACTIVITY FEED

Examples:

  • “Grandma donated $50 ❤️”

  • “Uncle Mike donated $25”

  • “Emma reached her first goal!”

👉 This is HUGE for conversion

🧍‍♂️ 7. DONOR WALL

Optional toggle:

  • Names + amounts

  • Or anonymous

👉 Social proof = more donations

📱 8. STICKY FOOTER (MOBILE)

Always visible:

  • Donate button

  • Share button

💡 CRITICAL UX RULES

Tell Leap:

  • Page must load in <1.5 seconds

  • Donation = <30 seconds total

  • No login required

  • No friction

🎯 STUDENT PAGE WIREFRAME (SIMPLE)

💥 NOW — HOW YOU SELL THIS (DEMO FLOW)

This is what closes schools FAST.

🎤 SALES DEMO SCRIPT (10 MIN CLOSE)

🟢 STEP 1: HOOK (1 min)

Say:

“What if your school could raise MORE money…
with LESS effort…
and parents actually enjoyed participating?”

🟢 STEP 2: PROBLEM (2 min)

“Traditional fundraisers are:

  • time consuming

  • low participation

  • outdated

  • and rely on selling products nobody wants”

🟢 STEP 3: INTRODUCE BOOST

“This is GiveHub Boost — a modern fundraising platform built for schools.”

🟢 STEP 4: SHOW STUDENT PAGE (WOW MOMENT)

👉 This is where you WIN

Walk through:

  • Student page

  • Donation in seconds

  • Share button

Say:

“Parents don’t sell anything…
they just share a link.”

🟢 STEP 5: SHOW LIVE DASHBOARD

  • Total raised

  • Participation

  • Leaderboards

Say:

“You see everything in real time.”

🟢 STEP 6: GAMIFICATION (EMOTIONAL SELL)

“Kids get excited.
Classes compete.
Schools hit goals faster.”

🟢 STEP 7: EVENT DAY (SELL THE EXPERIENCE)

“We turn fundraising into an EVENT — not a chore.”

  • Show live screen

  • Countdown

  • celebration

🟢 STEP 8: CLOSE

“Most schools raise significantly more than traditional fundraisers — with less effort.”

Then:

👉 “Want to try this for your next fundraiser?”

🧠 POSITIONING (IMPORTANT)

Never say:
❌ “like Booster”

Say:
✅ “modern digital fundraiser platform”
✅ “no selling required”
✅ “parent-driven fundraising”

🧨 YOUR ADVANTAGE (USE THIS)

You say:

“And unlike other platforms…
this connects directly into your donor system, reporting, and communications — all in one place.”

👉 That’s your killer differentiator

🔥 NEXT STEP (HIGH IMPACT)

1. 🎨 Pixel-perfect UI mockups (what Leap should build EXACTLY)

2. 📊 Admin dashboard layout (so it feels premium)

3. 💸 Pricing model (how you beat Booster financially)

New Fundraiser That Raises More (Without Selling Anything)New Fundraiser That Raises More (Without Selling Anything)

Hi {{first_name}},

We just launched a brand new school fundraiser platform that’s helping schools raise more money — without selling products.

Instead of catalogs or order forms, each student gets a personal fundraising page that parents can share with family and friends.

It’s fast, simple, and fun — and schools are seeing incredible results.

We’re offering a few schools early access to try it out.

Would you be open to a quick 10-minute demo?

– Kyle

📞 STEP 3 — DEMO CALLS

Use script I gave earlier 👆

🎯 STEP 4 — CLOSE

Offer:

“Let’s pilot this for your next fundraiser.”

🔥 STEP 5 — SOCIAL PROOF

After 1st school:

  • Screenshot results

  • Testimonials

  • Case study

🧠 FINAL STRATEGY NOTE

You are NOT building:
❌ a feature
❌ a tool

You are building:
✅ a revenue engine for schools

👉 NEXT MOVE

If you want to go even deeper, I recommend:

🔥 Next options:

  1. Full database + backend implementation plan for Leap

  2. Exact React component structure (copy/paste code style)

  3. Landing page that converts schools instantly

  4. Gamification psychology (how to outperform Booster)

Just tell me 👍

ok lets do it

Let’s go — now we turn this into something Leap can actually build cleanly without breaking your stack.

We’ll do this in 3 parts:

  1. 🧱 Backend Architecture + DB (production-ready for GiveHub)

  2. ⚛️ Frontend Component Structure (React / Leap-friendly)

  3. 🧠 Gamification Psychology Engine (this is how you beat Booster)

🧱 1. BACKEND ARCHITECTURE (GIVEHUB-COMPATIBLE)

This is critical — we align with your existing patterns so it plugs into:

  • People (CRM)

  • Donations pipeline

  • Messaging

  • Multi-tenant org model

🧭 SERVICE STRUCTURE

Create new service:

backend/boost/

Modules:

boost/
campaigns.ts
students.ts
classrooms.ts
prizes.ts
activity.ts
stats.ts

🗄️ FINAL DATABASE SCHEMA (CLEAN VERSION)

campaigns

CREATE TABLE boost_campaigns (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
org_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
name TEXT NOT NULL,
type TEXT NOT NULL,
goal_amount INTEGER,
start_date TIMESTAMP,
end_date TIMESTAMP,
event_date TIMESTAMP,
theme TEXT,
status TEXT DEFAULT 'draft',
created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW()
);

classrooms

CREATE TABLE boost_classrooms (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
org_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
campaign_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
name TEXT,
teacher_name TEXT,
grade TEXT,
total_raised INTEGER DEFAULT 0
);

students

CREATE TABLE boost_students (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
org_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
campaign_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
classroom_id INTEGER,
first_name TEXT,
last_name TEXT,
avatar_url TEXT,
goal_amount INTEGER,
slug TEXT UNIQUE,
access_code TEXT,
total_raised INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW()
);

🔥 IMPORTANT: DO NOT DUPLICATE DONATIONS

Instead, extend your existing donations table:

Add:

ALTER TABLE donations
ADD COLUMN campaign_id INTEGER,
ADD COLUMN student_id INTEGER,
ADD COLUMN classroom_id INTEGER;

👉 This keeps:

  • reporting unified

  • donor history intact

  • CRM clean

🎁 prize_tiers

CREATE TABLE boost_prize_tiers (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
campaign_id INTEGER,
amount_required INTEGER,
title TEXT,
description TEXT,
image_url TEXT
);

🏆 student_prizes

CREATE TABLE boost_student_prizes (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
student_id INTEGER,
prize_tier_id INTEGER,
earned_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW()
);

🔥 activity_feed

CREATE TABLE boost_activity (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
campaign_id INTEGER,
student_id INTEGER,
type TEXT,
message TEXT,
amount INTEGER,
created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW()
);

🔗 2. CORE BACKEND FLOWS

💸 ON DONATION (MOST IMPORTANT HOOK)

Modify your existing donation flow:

if (req.campaign_id) {
// 1. Attach donation
donation.campaign_id = req.campaign_id
donation.student_id = req.student_id
donation.classroom_id = req.classroom_id

// 2. Increment totals
UPDATE boost_students SET total_raised += amount
UPDATE boost_classrooms SET total_raised += amount

// 3. Insert activity
INSERT INTO boost_activity (...)

// 4. Check prize unlock
runPrizeEngine(student_id)
}

🎯 PRIZE ENGINE

function runPrizeEngine(studentId) {
const total = getStudentTotal(studentId)
const tiers = getPrizeTiers(student.campaign_id)

for (tier of tiers) {
if (total >= tier.amount && !alreadyEarned) {
INSERT boost_student_prizes
INSERT boost_activity ("Emma unlocked T-shirt!")
}
}
}

📊 STATS ENDPOINT

GET /boost/campaigns/:id/stats

Return:

{
"totalRaised": 24500,
"participationRate": 72,
"avgDonation": 48,
"topStudents": [],
"topClasses": []
}

🧠 4. GAMIFICATION PSYCHOLOGY (THIS IS YOUR EDGE)

🎯 CORE PRINCIPLES

1. PROGRESS ADDICTION

People donate more when they see:
👉 “Almost there”

So:

  • Animate progress bar

  • Show % complete

2. SOCIAL PROOF

Show:

  • recent donations

  • names

  • activity

👉 “Others are giving → I should too”

3. URGENCY

Add:

  • countdown timer

  • “Ends in 2 days”

4. MICRO-WINS

Prize tiers:

  • small early wins

  • frequent rewards

5. COMPETITION

  • class leaderboard

  • optional toggle

6. SHARE LOOP (MOST IMPORTANT)

After donation:

👉 “Share Emma’s page”

This drives exponential growth

🔥 BONUS: POST-DONATION SCREEN

After checkout:

🎉 Thank you!

Help Emma reach her goal faster 👇

[ SHARE BUTTON ]

👉 THIS IS HUGE

🚀 WHAT TO TELL LEAP (FINAL MESSAGE)

Writing

We are now moving into full implementation of Boost.GiveHub.com.

Follow this architecture strictly:

  • Create a new boost service with campaigns, students, classrooms, prizes, and activity modules

  • Extend existing donations table (do NOT duplicate donations)

  • Hook into donation flow to:

    • update totals

    • trigger prize engine

    • log activity

Frontend must be component-based:

  • StudentPage with Hero, CTA, QuickAmounts, PrizeTracker, ActivityFeed, StickyFooter

Prioritize:

  • mobile-first performance

  • fast donation flow

  • real-time updates (polling OK for v1)

Gamification is NOT optional:

  • prize tiers

  • activity feed

  • progress indicators

Do NOT overbuild.
Ship V1 fast and iterate.

🧨 YOU ARE NOW AHEAD OF BOOSTER

What you’ve built here is:

  • cleaner

  • faster

  • more scalable

  • more profitable
