Make sure your campaign is exciting and compelling, helping people feel the motivation to donate to the cause.

Building a campaign only requires a few steps. The step-by-step campaign creation tool walks you through all the essential information necessary to create a successful fundraiser.

3. Invite participants to join your team

The last thing you need to do to get started with your new digital fundraiser is to invite team participants. Send invitations to your team via email so they can join the fundraising efforts. Invite anyone involved in the fundraising campaign: team members, parents, volunteers, staff members, coaches, or anyone else who may have a vested interest in your organization and its fund raising efforts.

The power of an online fundraising campaign is the combined group effort to connect with donors. Your participants have a personal donation page they can share with friends and family. The collective efforts of many team members participating in fundraising brings in the cash your organization needs.

4. Share your fundraiser with the world

Social sharing enables your fundraising team to share requests across the internet. Each person has their personal network of friends and family on social media. The compound effect of many people sharing this information through their social profiles creates a wide net for your organization to connect with potential donors.

Every participant has a personalized donation page, with share buttons to post the link on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. These campaigns can also be shared via email. Additionally, participants can copy-and-paste the page URL to send to anyone who might be interested in participating as a donor. Word of mouth is an effective way to spread the word and increase overall donations for the team.
