What is social fundraising?

Social fundraising empowers your supporters to fundraise online for you. Digital natives are moved to give because a friend, family member, or respected online presence asked for their support, resulting in a new wave of online activism: social fundraising.

New fundraising technologies have modernized the donation experience by threading together a variety of digital spaces, stitching social media with your fundraising platform and bank account for a seamless, secure fundraising model.

The phone shows a group of graduates throwing their caps in the air, a photo of a smiling woman, and a text saying "Karen, Scott's Tots here! We're halfway to meeting our fundraising goal of $10,000 to provide college tuition to deserving kids. Log in and share your page."

Social fundraising objections ... and how to overcome them

“I don't have a big social following”

Start with a proven platform, like Facebook or YouTube, and reach out to your current donor base to get them on board. Once you get it started, it'll be easier to keep the momentum going.

“Our team doesn't have the capacity”

Social fundraising works best when it's supporter-led. Many of your supporters already know how to maximize engagement on social platforms; by letting your fundraisers forge ahead, your movement can truly scale.

“Social fundraising revenue is hard to sustain”

Funraise has integrations with social platforms that help centralize donation and donor information. You can report on donations from synced Facebook Fundraisers, for example.
