School FAQ

Does the PTA have to collect orders?

No. For fundraiser programs, families can order directly through a tracked link or QR code.

Can our school have a custom landing page?

Yes. School-specific landing pages and QR codes can be used to create a more personal parent experience and attribute sales correctly.

Can we put our logo on the book?

The heirloom book itself stays intentionally clean. For welcome programs, a tasteful school-specific insert or card can be created instead.

Can a local business sponsor books?

Yes. Sponsored programs can be structured with tasteful sponsor acknowledgment while keeping the keepsake itself parent-focused.
