Question 1

Why consider a Raise Days campaign?

Accepted Answer

First and foremost, this fundraising strategy really works.   We understand the importance and power of an annual campaign. We also appreciate the engagement opportunities offered by marquee events such as galas and golf tournaments.    Raise Days should not compete, but compliment your existing fundraising program. This type of campaign will quickly mobilize and engage your supporter base. Plan your Raise Days campaign either as a kick-start to your primary fundraising period, or way to energize the tail end.    We also have a proven strategy for securing matching donors. Our program has helped nonprofits raise millions in matching funds.

Question 2

What is a bonus goal?

Accepted Answer

When you reach your goal and have new matching donors to support additional funds, then we recommend you create a second goal called a “bonus goal.” This is a great way to continue using your campaign to keep raising funds if you see there is momentum behind the campaign. We’ve had a number of campaigns report that matching donors get so excited by the campaign that new ones step forward for the bonus round. You can renew your promotion and outreach efforts at this time, extending the length of your campaign to maximize the bonus goal opportunity.

Question 3

Are there any set up fees?

Accepted Answer

No, we do not charge set-up fees or monthly fees. Rest assured, there are no hidden fees at all. If you require a custom integration or functionality, there could be a fee associated with the development. If no such integration is required or if your needs are already supported by existing integrations, there are no additional fees. To learn more about our platform fees, contact info@givinggateway.ca
