3 fast fundraising ideas for nonprofits to boost donation through your website

Cover

¿You know how yo can boost your fundraising and get more donations? In this article, we share the three fundraising ideas for nonprofits you can implement using your organization’s website.

 

Investigating a little, I found myself with Forbes list of top charities in 2019 in USA and with a list of the best nonprofits on the web.

I explored some of them trying to find similarities on their websites.

Here the three main things I found the most successful charities and nonprofits in USA share.

 

Prominent Donate Button on their site

Most of the charities and nonprofits had a prominent donate button to raise donations.

This button is located on their homepage and kept appearing on every page you entered on the site.

 

As fundraising is important for your organization, you have to make sure this goal is accomplished by your website.

Putting a highlighted and sticky donate button in your site is the most effective way to do this.

Here are some examples:

 

National 4-h Donate button on their website
National 4-H Donate button on their website
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital’s Donate button on their website

 

As can be observed, the donate button is highlighted with a prominent color and its different than the other components of the navegation bar.

Multilingual Availability

What about receiving donations from all over the world? Sounds good, right?

 

Many of the top organizations have their site in several languages.

 

This simple decision allows you expanding your mission to many other countries and spreading the word.

Making it easier to connect with other people who may love your mission and wants to support it.

Great Social Media Presence

Is not new information that social media is very important for your organization.

It helps you connect with people who love your cause through storytelling.

 

Social Media let you join or create a community supporting your the work you do through your website and presential channels. 

Your and your nonprofit organization could connect in a deeper way with your audience and contact potential donors and volunteers.
