Introduction

Welcome to VDR fundmarket.

Our names are Vivian, Rocio, and Dorismar. We designed this app to help people afford what they need and help others by purchasing what we have. Many people have given great reviews about our app! We want to help the people that aren’t able to afford certain stuff no matter how hard they try. With effort, anything is possible!

App Overview

In this app, we have many options with different categories of essentials such as clothes, art supplies, knitting supplies, accessories, and more. They even have an affordable price for those that need stuff but can’t get it in other places.

How Does VDR FundMarket Solve Current Problems?

Problem 1: Schools Do Not Have Enough Funding

Current Issue

Many schools struggle to pay for:

• School supplies
• Field trips
• Student activities
• Sports programs
• Classroom materials
• Support for low-income families

Traditional fundraisers only happen a few times a year and usually do not raise enough money.

​

How Our App Solves It

VDR FundMarket creates a continuous fundraising system where:

• 30% of every purchase automatically goes to the school
