Fundraiser Frequently Asked Questions
What is this fundraiser?
This fundraiser is an opportunity for friends, families, and colleagues to raise money for their group by selling AAA memberships. For every new AAA membership purchased through your group’s unique signup page, AAA will donate $20 to support your cause.
AAA will provide a custom join campaign page and a QR code unique to your group, making it easy to share with your community. Every new membership sold through your shared link will directly contribute to your fundraising goal, while also giving supporters the trusted benefits of AAA!
Who can participate?
Anyone signing up for a new AAA membership who lives in Washington or Northern Idaho.
How long should we run it?
We recommend 2–3 weeks to build momentum, but you can choose dates that fit your calendar.
How much can we earn?
There’s no cap. It’s $20 per new membership — the more people who join through your link, the more you raise.
What counts as a “new” membership?
A household that does not currently have an active AAA membership in Washington or Northern Idaho.
Do renewals or add-on associates count?
No. This fundraiser pays only for new memberships.
What types of groups can participate?
Schools, PTAs/boosters, youth teams/clubs, community nonprofits, and similar organizations.
Is there any cost to get started?
No. Setup is free.
How do we sign up?
Fill out the form on the AAA Fundraiser page or reach out to Fundraiser@aaawa.com. We’ll collect your group name/logo and preferred dates, then create your custom webpage.
How long does setup take?
Once we have your details, please allow two weeks for us to set up your unique join campaign page and send you the link, along with your promotional materials.
What promo materials do we get?
You’ll receive digital flyers, sample social posts, email copy, and a QR code that links to your page.
How do families use the link?
They click your unique link (or scan your QR code), choose a new membership, and complete checkout. Their purchase is automatically tracked to your group.
How do we track progress?
We can provide periodic updates during your campaign and a final tally after it ends.
When do we get paid?
After your campaign closes and all purchases are verified, AAA Washington will issue your group’s payout approximately three weeks after the fundraiser ends.
How is payment issued?
Typically via check to the organization listed on your signup form.
Do we need a W-9 or any paperwork?
AAA Washington needs your group or school’s W-9 so we can process payment correctly. We’ll let you know exactly what’s needed during setup.
What if someone cancels or requests a refund?
If a new membership is refunded, it won’t count toward earnings.
Can we run this alongside other fundraisers?
Yes — this is low-lift and works well alongside other efforts.
Any tips for success?
Promote in short bursts over 2–3 weeks:
Kickoff email + social post with your link/QR code
Mid-campaign reminder with a quick success update
Final “last chance” push in the final 48 hours
What benefits do families get with AAA?
24/7 Roadside Assistance, travel perks, everyday discounts, and access to trusted insurance and financial services — real value beyond the fundraiser.
