Fundraising Campaigns

If you are looking to empower supporters to create Giving Tuesday fundraisers, you can create a Giving Tuesday fundraising campaign for free with GiveSignup. Use our new and free email marketing to encourage supporters to create a fundraiser for Giving Tuesday. You’ll get all of your fundraisers’ data while allowing them to seamlessly create a connected Facebook Fundraiser to raise money across both platforms – all for free!

 

How to set up a Giving Tuesday Fundraising Campaign

On GiveSignup, you can set up unlimited fundraising campaigns that are either open-ended or confined to a set of dates. This makes it great for Giving Tuesday.

You can create a fundraising campaign website in minutes.

 

1. First, you will need to create a campaign website. givesignup.org/FundraisingCampaign/New

In Step 1 of the wizard, you will add a name, description, goal, and start/end dates. In the second and third steps, you will add fundraiser and donation settings. In step 4, you'll add a logo and brand colors, and finally, in step 5, you'll add a payment account. Once you've completed the wizard, you'll have a simple and beautiful campaign website.

 

2. Customize!

The first thing you should do is add at least one slideshow image to the slideshow on the campaign page using the Edit button at the top right. 

If you like the look of this page, you don't have to add anything else! But if you want to add additional content, you can build out a landing page using the Website Builder through the Campaign Dashboard. 

This will allow you to have two pages on your campaign website: a landing page with custom content, and the campaign page itself. 

Other customizations you can make include adding a domain or subdomain to the site, adding a custom favicon to the website, and editing your logo/colors under Website Options >> Branding in the dashboard.

 

3. Turn on Facebook Fundraising. 

To take advantage of GiveSignup's integration with Facebook Fundraising, you will want to add your nonprofit's Facebook page ID to the Facebook Fundraising page in the dashboard. If your nonprofit is already on Facebook Payments, you can enable it instantly. Go to Integrations >> Facebook Fundraisers >> Add a Facebook Charity and add your Facebook page ID.

Getting an error? You might not be on Facebook Payments yet. Learn more about the integration here: https://help.runsignup.com/support/solutions/articles/17000093082-requirements-to-set-up-facebook-fundraising-for-your-race-step-1-
