What is a photo fundraiser?

A photo fundraiser is a campaign where supporters donate to your organization in exchange for a professional portrait experience. It’s a unique way to raise funds while giving donors something meaningful in return.

How does the fundraiser work?

Once your organization signs up, we create a custom link where donors can register. Each donor gets a full portrait package—including a design consultation, a photo session with one of our expert photographers, and a printed portrait. You receive 100% of the donation amount.

Do we need to be a nonprofit to participate?

No. We work with 501(c)(3)s, schools, alumni associations, civic groups, and professional clubs. If your group has a community of supporters, we can help you raise funds through photography.

Is there any upfront cost to the organization?

None. There’s no risk, no inventory, and no fees. We handle everything—from booking and photography to delivery—so your team can focus on promoting the campaign.

What do donors receive with their donation?

Each donor receives a Zoom design consultation, up to 90 minutes with a professional portrait photographer, and a 16x20 inch mounted print. Many choose to purchase additional prints or digitals, but there’s no obligation.

How long does it take to launch a fundraiser?

We can have your campaign up and running within 2 weeks. Once it’s live, you start receiving funds as donations come in.

Can we customize the campaign for our group?

Yes. From logos and messaging to visual branding and social media graphics, every campaign is personalized for your organization.

About Spirit Cove Animal Therapy

In today’s high-stress world, people need more than coping skills — they need connection. At Spirit Cove, we bring calm and comfort through gentle Newfoundland therapy dogs who meet people where they are — in hospitals, schools, disaster zones, and first responder units.

Our mission is to ease emotional overload and isolation before it becomes depression, burnout, substance misuse, or suicide. Whether comforting youth, teachers, first responders, healthcare workers, veterans, or trauma survivors, our Newfie Therapy Teams create pop-up moments of peace, presence, and hope wherever they go.

Now, we’re building Spirit Cove Ranch near Asheville, North Carolina — a sanctuary where healing truly has paws and hooves. Here, magnificent Newfoundland dogs will be joined by kindhearted Gypsy Vanner horses, as we rescue, train, and deploy animals to help people heal — one gentle encounter at a time.
