Building Leaders.
Raising Spirits.

Right Container-2

It all started with a teacher and $500.

We know exactly how much heart goes into teaching! Apex began when our founder, Scott Donnell, watched his wife Amy, an amazing first-grade teacher, spend over $500 of her own money on her classroom. The traditional fundraisers that were supposed to help? They just drained her precious time and energy. Scott knew our schools deserved a better, happier way.

Fast forward over 15 years, and we are so proud to be the pioneers of hassle-free sports fundraising! We’ve helped schools nationwide raise millions, all while teaching kids valuable character lessons. The best part? It’s an absolute blast for everyone involved!

Frequently Asked Questions

We know planning a fundraiser comes with questions — here are clear, simple answers to help you feel confident.

Is Apex a nonprofit?

We believe in keeping things completely open and honest with you! Apex is a for-profit company. Operating this way means our costs come directly out of the funds raised, which is exactly how we can provide this massive event with no financial risk to your school. You can always check out our pricing page for a clear breakdown of where every single dollar goes so your PTA is always in the loop.

How does Apex screen the team members on our campus?

Your students' safety is always our top priority! Every single coach is personally hired, fully trained, and thoroughly background checked by your local Apex owner before they ever step foot on your campus. Because your local owner lives right in your community, they are deeply invested in and fully accountable to the exact same schools your families attend.
