Great for leaving a lasting impression!
We mostly use GoFundMe for disaster relief and special needs funding. It is a great platform for us to share a message of what our needs are and how much we support we are looking for. This is used across the whole organization and allows us to include marketing materials for a call of action. This addresses time management for us, whereas with other platforms we are required to put in more time to manage reports and payments.
- Call of action marketing
- Progress thermometer or meter
- Great place for comments by donors
- Stricter accountability for legitimacy.
- Brought in new donors from outside our solicitation area.
- Appeals to younger audiences.
- Great way to include client testimonials and stories.
We chose GoFundMe primarily because it is a well-known name, and although there have been some donors questioning the legitimacy of our account, for the most part, donors trust this site and enjoy seeing the impact of donations collectively. Other platforms would also work just as well but we did some research before choosing GoFundMe and our entire team felt it was the best choice.
