Once your Daffy Campaign is live, it's time to share it with others! Researchers found that for 85% of charitable donations, people gave because someone asked them.
While it may seem scary, a direct ask for support is incredibly powerful.
Most giving is through our network and community. This means that the majority of people give to charity because of a personal connection. Making a personal appeal for donations is compelling when you focus on three themes:
💖 Why You Care: What idea, story, or personal experience drove you to set up a campaign on behalf of the selected charity or charities?
🎯 Your Campaign Goals: How much do you want to raise and why? How or how many people will be impacted? Do the dollars raised translate into a unit (i.e., meals, backpacks, etc.)? Is your campaign offering a personal donation match from you?
🤝 Support Needed: Obviously, you want people to donate to your campaign, but are there other ways they can help? In addition to donating, don’t forget to ask your supporters to share your campaign to expand your fundraising reach.
