GivingTuesday

Giving Tuesday is just 2 months away, on November 27 and it is not too soon to start preparing for it. This year, we  want to give you some extra help by creating an online donations page that is integrated with FundRaiser. Our Donor Portal can play a key role in the success of your Giving Tuesday campaign.

Your custom Donor Portal page for online donations will 

• look & feel like your website
• accept online donations using Authorize.net
• seamlessly stream donor and donation records directly to FundRaiser

Best of all, we have a special offer for you: purchase the Donor Portal before Giving Tuesday, and we will host your new donations page for free for a year (normally $9.95 per month). 

You need some lead time to get an integrated online donations page in place for the first time. Not only does the page need to be designed, but also set up with your unique fund and motivation codes for Giving Tuesday. Additionally, integrating with payment gateways takes time. That's why we're starting to talk about it now-- it is not too early to start! 

If you are already using the FundRaiser Donor Portal, setting up your Giving Tuesday codes and custom correspondence only takes a few minutes, but both new and seasoned donor portal users will benefit by thinking through Giving Tuesday campaign emails. After a lackluster start, Parkesburg Point surged to success last year by creating a full strategy. How are you going to promote your cause for Giving Tuesday?  Donors have lots of options for organizations to support and if you want to be Top of Mind with donors, you need to have reminded them a few times before Giving Tuesday itself. Start this well in advance - it is not too early to start talking about it right now.

The FundRaiser Donor Portal offers a seamless, secure connection between your website, your Authorize.net payment gateway, and FundRaiser. We want to help you have that all in place before Giving Tuesday to make that day and all your fundraising easier.
