Group order and split-box fundraisers: sell bigger boxes
Big boxes are cheaper per item, but not every student wants twelve donuts or a dozen cookies. Split orders solve that: friends share one box and each pays for their part.
Money never touches Cornell Craves. Students pay the club directly over Venmo or Zelle, and there is no commission or fee.
How a split order works
1. One person starts a group
The organizer picks the box and starts a group order from the club's listing.
2. They share an invite link
Friends open the link, sign in and claim their share.
3. Everyone pays their part
Each person pays the club directly by Venmo or Zelle within the payment window.
4. Everyone gets a pass
Each member of the group receives their own QR pickup pass.
Why clubs like it
Larger boxes raise the average order, and shared purchases bring in friends who might not have ordered alone. Deadlines keep groups moving: groups that never fill or never finish paying are canceled automatically.
Frequently asked questions
Can students split a fundraiser order with friends?

Who can use Cornell Craves?
Clubs must be legitimate Cornell student organizations, and new clubs are reviewed before their first drop goes live. Ordering is for current Cornell students with an @cornell.edu Google account. Cornell Craves is an independent student project and is not run or endorsed by Cornell University. It does not replace any Cornell approval, and each club stays responsible for following university and county rules.
