For Athletic, Band & PTO Booster Clubs
A booster club that doesn’t restart every year.
When the officers change in September, the whole organisation usually starts from scratch. TidyHQ keeps the parent list, the fundraising history, and the 501(c)(3) records in one place — so the new board inherits a working booster club, not a shoebox of receipts.
No credit card required. Set up in minutes.

Every new board starts from zero
Treasurer hands over a shoebox of receipts and a Google Sheet nobody knows the password to. The new board spends the first month reconstructing what last year's club actually did.
Parent dues collected six different ways
Cash at the meeting. Venmo to the treasurer's personal account. A check in a kid's backpack. Half the parents pay, half forget, and reconciliation takes a Saturday.
501(c)(3) compliance is somebody else’s job until it isn’t
Annual filing creeps up. Nobody can find last year's bank statements, who paid for the new uniforms, or which fundraisers cleared $5,000. The form gets filed late or wrong.
Booster club admin that actually transfers when officers change.
Built for parent-run, all-volunteer booster clubs that fundraise for school athletics, bands, theatre programs, and academic teams.

Parent dues that collect themselves
Parents get an email each season, click through, and pay by card. The booster club gets the money in its actual bank account, not the treasurer’s Venmo. Records are linked to the player or student, not a separate spreadsheet.

“Our previous treasurer left no records. TidyHQ gave the new board a starting point — every dues payment, every fundraiser, every parent contact. We didn't restart from scratch for once.”

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about TidyHQ for athletic, band & pto booster clubs.
Yes. TidyHQ is used by athletic boosters, band boosters, theatre boosters, robotics teams, and PTOs/PTAs across the US. The core needs — collect dues, run fundraisers, communicate with parents, keep records for 501(c)(3) compliance, and hand off to next year’s officers — are the same regardless of which program the booster club supports.
TidyHQ keeps a clean ledger of every dues payment, fundraiser, and expense, with documents attached. When 990 filing comes around, the totals are already broken down by income type. TidyHQ doesn’t file with the IRS for you — you still work with a CPA or your filing service — but the records are organised the way the form needs them.
Yes. Create unlimited dues tiers — varsity, JV, freshman, family, alumni, supporter — each with its own price. Parents choose the tier when they pay. Multi-sport families can pay for each player without re-entering details.
New officers get admin access. The full history of dues payments, fundraisers, meeting minutes, bylaws, IRS letters, and parent contacts is already in the platform. The old officers can keep view-only access if your bylaws require it. Handover takes a meeting, not a month.
TidyHQ handles online sales for tickets, dues, and event registration through Stripe. Spirit-wear can be sold through TidyHQ as event tickets or through an integration with a shop tool. For in-person concession nights, log the revenue and expenses afterwards to keep one consolidated ledger.
TidyHQ has a free plan with unlimited contacts. Pro is $890/year flat — every feature, every parent, no per-member fees. For most booster clubs, that’s a single fundraiser’s worth of revenue.
