There\u2019s no denying that year-end giving plays a huge part in any nonprofit\u2019s online fundraising strategy. According to the Blackbaud Institute\u2019s 2019 Charitable Giving Report<\/u><\/a>, almost 20%<\/strong> of all 2019 online giving happened during the month of December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

But coming up with an effective and<\/em> achievable fundraising strategy can be challenging \u2013 especially for nonprofits with limited staff and resources. To help you plan, here are RoundUp App\u2019s Top Tips for maximizing end of year giving for your nonprofit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Top Tips:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
  1. Reflect on the past year<\/strong>
    Remind everyone what your organization accomplished this year. Bonus points if you use personalized content. Think Spotify\u2019s annual     Year in Review<\/u><\/a>.<\/li>
  2. Remember to thank your supporters<\/strong>
    Before you ask your audiences for donations, be sure to thank your supporters for the key role they played in helping to make your 2020 accomplishments possible.<\/li>
  3. Use goals<\/strong>
    Whether it\u2019s the amount of money you want to raise or the number of new donors you\u2019d like to add, goals help add purpose to a fundraising campaign. Plus, you can use updates on your goal progress as a reason to regularly communicate with your audiences.<\/li>
  4. Use deadlines<\/strong>
    Deadlines and countdown timers are great tools to encourage your audiences to take action. Just think about all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday emails you probably got in your inbox this year. Plus, midnight on December 31st is a legitimate deadline for anyone wanting to include donations in their 2020 taxes.<\/li>
  5. Reach out multiple times on December 31st<\/strong>
    If there\u2019s one day of the year where you should be emailing and posting throughout the day with fundraising asks, it\u2019s December 31st. According to M+R,     24% of all December revenue came in on December 31st<\/u><\/a> in 2018.<\/li>
  6. Don\u2019t forget multi-channel marketing<\/strong>
    Make sure you\u2019re taking advantage of every available channel. Always use consistent text and imagery so that your most engaged followers don\u2019t get mixed messages. And if you haven\u2019t tried SMS marketing yet, now is a great time to start! All RoundUp App clients get their first 500 text messages on us.<\/li>
  7. Be creative and have fun!<\/strong>
    Think outside the box and create campaigns that celebrate your nonprofit\u2019s unique identity. Asking audiences to support your organization through RoundUp App is another great way to stand out from the crowd.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    If your nonprofit isn\u2019t using RoundUp App yet, there\u2019s still time to get started before the year is over!<\/strong> Sign up on our website<\/u><\/a> and create your custom donor registration page with a few easy steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
