The Causes Blog

Fundraising on Causes just got much more powerful.  Starting today, all nonprofit partners can create custom fundraising campaigns, highlighting and raising money for specific projects, programs, or goals.  Need to raise $10,000 for a rally in Washington DC?  $500,000 for an orphanage in Malawi?  $2,000 by January 1st to start the New Year off on the right foot?  Once you’ve created a fundraising campaign you can display it on all of your affiliate causes (unlike our former fundraising goals, which could only be displayed on one cause).  The new Bulletin feature allows you to send targeted emails to the members of your affiliate causes. You can utilize Fundraising Campaigns and targeted Bulletins to run a coordinated fundraising effort across any number of affiliate causes.  If there are 25 causes benefiting one nonprofit, they can all feature the same campaign and each encourage their membership to donate toward a common goal.
Fundraising campaigns allow nonprofits to identify specific projects or amounts of impact that their supporters can help them achieve. We’ve repeatedly found that your cause members are more likely to donate when they know where their dollars are going.  These campaigns make the impact of their donation clear and your cause members will be motivated by the goal, the timeline, and the description of your specific fundraising campaign. Notably, the new customized fundraising campaigns allow cause members not only to donate, but also to promote the fundraising campaign by asking their friends to donate and posting the campaign to their profile.
Ready to start?  Log into your Nonprofit Partner Center at nonprofits.causes.com and click on the “Fundraising” tab.  From there, you can create a new fundraising campaign, feature it on affiliate causes, ask independent causes to adopt it, view the donations made to that campaign and start talking about it with your supporters.  You can also go to the Communications tab to send messages to everyone who donates to your campaign as well as everyone who promotes it to their friends.
