Village’s technology has been a game-changer for Alicia. Now, she can pursue her mission of increasing extracurricular access while making her business scalable. It's a win-win.
Village.com is an online platform that connects families with extracurricular activities for their children and teens, and scholarships to help those in need.
Comprised of scholarships and systems to manage them, along with powerful registration, roster management, and payment processing tools, Village.com gives you free business-grade software that lets you seamlessly incorporate a "Check for scholarships" button into your registration flow. This connects your organization with a reliable stream of donor-funded scholarships that are automatically administered on your behalf, at no cost to your bottom line.
The only cost that your organization will automatically incur while using Village.com is a 2.9% + 30 cent payment processing fee that is passed directly through to our payment processor.
Fees for optional add-on software features and fees for optional advertising tools may apply.
A wide range of providers spanning nearly every niche - from music schools, ceramics studios, and nature preserves, to gymnastics programs, equestrian centers, and parent-toddler dance instructors - are using our free platform and our free scholarships to maximize their impact on the communities they serve.

Village.com's scholarships bring a reliable stream of charitable funding to your organization, making it profitable for you to open your doors to the underserved youth in your local community. Here's how they work:
When a family visits your always-free Village.com registration page, they'll see a "Check for Scholarships" button. Clicking this button opens a secure form that takes less than 30 seconds to complete, and lets Village.com automatically determine their eligibility for one of our donor-funded scholarships.
If the family is matched with a scholarship, they are instantly shown a discount that lowers the price of your activity to one that best-suits their financial situation, with discounts ranging from 10% off to 100% off.
When the family registers for your activity, they'd only pay the discounted price, but you'd still receive 100% of the revenue you'd otherwise generate from a family that pays in full because the discount is paid for by the scholarships that our network of donors helps fund. In an instant, our system combines the family's payment with any scholarships they were awarded, and the sum gets routed directly to your account.
In order to safeguard underserved youth from potential stigmatization or discrimination, Village.com maintains strict confidentiality regarding the allocation of its donor-funded scholarships.
You do not need to switch softwares to start using Village.com to offer scholarships for your activities. You can easily export the registrations made by families on your free Village.com page into whatever tool you currently use to manage your customers' information.
