Thriva - Feedback

Many schools start with registering for one event. You use online registration for all of programs, events, classes, donations and supplies.

"Thriva has been great for us; we now use the system for all major dances, our student fundraiser, and athletic booster signups. We are hopeful that in the future this will be the ONLY way people donate to make the process more streamlined...and so we have less money changing hands on campus (the IRS folks are happier with online!) and we can process everything in the same place."

All Users - Connect With FACEBOOK



Connecting With Facebook

Social media is a great way for organizations to connect with the customers and participants. One of the most popular social networking sites is Facebook. To start taking advantage of this media create a Facebook page for your organization. These pages look like an individual’s Facebook page and your patrons can “fan” you and follow your posts. You can include information like open and close times, invite people to upcoming events and even share media like photos and videos. It’s an easy way for your participants to stay connected and for you to get the word out about upcoming events and activities.

Meeting Description:

ActiveEducate is proud to introduce Allison Reutter, Business Manager of Active Wellness, The Active Network, who will present this seminar on how schools and districts can partner with athletic events, leading the way to improvements in a multitude of issues of key concern to educators:

Raising funds to supplement your school budget
Promoting fitness and an active lifestyle to your students & faculty
Enhancing morale and unity among staff and faculty
Partnering with local businesses to recruit both participation and financial support


We’ll show you how simple it can be to build relationships with non-profit and corporate partners, promote participation, raise money and awareness, and develop community outreach.

You’ll learn best practices schools have adopted to recruit local businesses, thereby increasing community support and participation. You’ll walk away with the key steps to develop your own plan, and learn about a turnkey solution to ensure success. Up-to-date statistics on wellness will be presented, along with ways they can be used to develop partnership programs.
