Better Giving - Better Crowdfunding: The Better Giving Fundraisers

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Better Giving Fundraisers, our ‘crowdfunding’ platform for fundraising tailored specifically for nonprofits and donors. With features designed to enhance trust, transparency, and efficiency and whether you’re a nonprofit seeking support or a donor wanting to make a meaningful impact, this tool ensures your efforts go further.

What are fundraisers?

Fundraisers are organized efforts, usually by individuals, to collect money and resources in support of a specific cause, project, or nonprofit. They can be a vital tools for nonprofits to generate the financial backing they need.

Fundraisers can take many forms. Such as donation drives or crowdfunding campaigns. Through strategic promotion and community involvement, fundraisers not only bring in funds but also foster a sense of shared responsibility and collaboration, ultimately helping organizations create positive change in society.

A Fundraising example:

Imagine you, as a donor, decide to run a marathon to support a local animal shelter. You set up a Better Giving Fundraiser as a crowdfunding page, explaining why this cause is important to you and highlighting the shelter’s need for donations.

You share updates about your training progress through social media and email, encouraging friends, family, and colleagues to contribute. As people donate towards your target, you thank them and keep them informed about how their funds will help with vaccinations, rescue operations, and day-to-day care for the animals.

This personal fundraiser showcases your dedication to the cause, while providing a clear, inspiring goal for supporters to rally around.
