Today we bring you another nonprofit fundraising Best Practice in Action from our weekly series. Each week, we’ll highlight an organization that has done an incredible job of promoting its online fundraising efforts with FirstGiving and show you how to do the same. This week’s Best Practice is. . .
Keep your fundraising community in the loop with your blog.
Our friends at the Support Connection wanted to keep in touch with their event participants in the weeks leading up to their Annual Support-A-Walk for Breast & Ovarian Cancer. They started a blog called “You Can Do It” (what a great name!). Each blog post is a helpful tip to encourage fundraisers in their efforts to raise money online for the event:
The blog also contains important details about the event and Support Connection’s programs, all in one place! Brilliant!
So, to recap: Your fundraisers will really surprise you when you equip them and empower them. Use your organization’s blog to post information and resources for your fundraisers, or create a blog just for your fundraising event. To start a (free!) blog, check out Blogger or Wordpress .
Happy fundraising!
