Preschool Spring Fair Ticketing on Zeffy

Neighborhood Nursery School’s 2026 Spring Fair on Zeffy

Why We Love Zeffy: Our non-profit parent cooperative preschool in Los Angeles uses Zeffy for all of our fundraising events, including our biggest, most important event of the year: our Spring Fair. The Fair has a LOT of moving parts, including 2-tiers of admission tickets, as well as bundles of game tickets and raffle tickets (ranging from $10 to $100... a buy-more, get-more situation). And to top it off, all purchases need to be associated with one of our students, in order to track their individual fundraising goals. What I love most about using Zeffy is how customizable the platform is, from start to finish. I customized the ticketing options text, to make it clear to people exactly what they're buying; I customized the post-purchase emails, so that our guests have all the info they need at their fingertips about location, time, and parking; and then I customized the exports of all our purchases, which we used on the day of the fair while checking in guests. Zeffy makes a very complicated operation remarkably easy!

Our of Our Zeffy “Best Practices”: If you’re a school that, like us, has fundraising requirements for each student, I’ve found it’s easiest to track this by adding a single-select custom question with each student’s first name and last initial, and grouping siblings together as one option. This way your donors/guests don’t have to decide which sibling their purchase is supporting, and you can track the family’s overall progress to their fundraising goal.
