Fundraising Made Easy

Whether you're fundraising for the first time or you're an absolute pro, we want to take away all of the stress of fundraising so you can have a blast as you work towards your goal! We've broken up the promotional tools into two categories - Online and Offline Fundraising - so that you can plan your campaign according to how you prefer to fundraise. Here are six steps to get you on the right track for a successful campaign:
  1. Determine your fundraising goal and timeline. Tip: Try setting a goal with this formula: $10 x 1/4 of Facebook friends
  2. Create your fundraising campaign and add that personal touch
  3. Set yourself up for success by emailing your closest family and friends first because they're the most likely to donate
  4. Promote your CauseVox page on your social media platforms with the Online Fundraising Tools
  5. Plan fundraising events with inspiration from our Fundraising Ideas
  6. Prepare your event for success with tips from our Offline Fundraising Tools
  7. And don't forget to always thank your donors!
