Every day, people all over the world set up crowdfunding campaigns to support all kinds of people, causes, and organizations. Why not leverage the power of crowdfunding for your organization on the most philanthropic social media holiday of the year?

By creating a Giving Tuesday Ambassador Program, you can empower all the people who support your cause to raise money on your organization’s behalf through crowdfunding. Here’s how you can quickly and easily build a community around your Giving Tuesday campaign that will accelerate its success.

Set Up a Crowdfunding Page for Your Organization

Forget about GoFundMe. Crowdfunding tools like DonorPerfect Crowdfunding are specially designed for nonprofits, so the differences between the two will certainly matter to you. DonorPerfect Crowdfunding enables your organization to:
Invite donors to create their own fundraisers right from your campaign page
Monitor giving on organization and donor pages with a progress meter
Collect and record all donor data from organization and individual fundraisers for resolicitation
Automatically send gift and donor data into DonorPerfect through its full integration

Remind Your Ambassadors Before the Big Day

Check in with your supporters the week before Giving Tuesday to remind them about your Giving Tuesday Ambassador Program. To make their setup swift and easy, provide them with the link to your organization’s crowdfunding page and the email and social media attachments you included in your initial invitation. That way, everything they need to get started is in one place and at the top of their inbox.
In addition to email and social media collateral, you should also consider letting your supporters know how many ambassadors have created crowdfunding pages so far, and how many more you’d like to recruit by the big day in order to help you reach your overall Giving Tuesday goal.
Send a final push the morning of Giving Tuesday.
On Giving Tuesday, engage with your ambassadors by retweeting, sharing, and liking their posts as they champion your campaign throughout the day.

Don’t Forget to Personally Thank Your Ambassadors for Their Contributions

Acknowledging the time, effort, and enthusiasm of all the supporters who took action on Giving Tuesday is vitally important, especially if you’re hoping they’ll make this a yearly tradition. Use this email template to let your Giving Tuesday Ambassadors know just how much their participation means to your organization.
Subject Line: Giving Tuesday was a success thanks to YOU!
