History edit
The company was founded in January of 2024 by Brian Preston in Carrollton, GA. Brian realized there was a disparity in sports leagues between those that had money to spend on sport equipment and those that didn't. Fundtool was started to provide a tool to help individuals on a sports team raise money for equipment. Over time the platform progressed to supporting a whole team fundraising initiative, and later to support other non-sports related causes.[1]
Notable projects edit
My Turn Baseball League edit
My Turn is an organization based out of Haralson County, Georgia that provides inclusive baseball experiences for children with disabilities and Special needs that would not normally get a chance to play in traditional sports leagues. The organization had been granted land to build their adaptive field for the league, but also needed to raise money to build the field.[2][3]
