Suggestions for improving your fundraising efforts:
-
People are more likely to donate if they see that you have at least one or two donations already. While donations on your own page don’t count towards your personal total, you can donate to others on your team. Exchange donations with another
team member (i.e., you donate to them and they donate to you in exchange) and you both benefit!
-
Add a donation widget with your fundraisers status to your e-mail signature
-
Send a mass e-mail to friends and family sharing your story about why you volunteer with CNP and how their donation will help- remind people that their donation is tax-deductible.
-
Add pictures and personal stories to your fundraising page.
-
Suggest amounts that people can donate and what we will get with that amount
