By Joseph Ward


When your organization's work is dependent on charity, you want to do your best to ensure that you raise as much money as possible for your cause. Holding major fundraisers is one way to do that. But, it is not enough to carry out fundraising opportunities Springfield, you also have to do you best to get as much money as possible during these events. Here are some tricks on how to squeeze out as much money as possible from donors.

Invite the right people to your event. This means inviting people who care about your cause. They should also have the financial capacity to give. For instance, people who care about your cause include people who are subscribed to your newsletter, your social media followers and even guests who have attended your past events. Also, have your team strategically come up with a list of high priority people, who you might approach. Don't just invite anyone.

Get people as excited as possible about the event. This includes giving them information well beforehand. Therefore, you have to communicate well in advance and pass across the right information. Let people know the real reason why you are having the event.

During the day of the event, avoid getting distracted by other minor things. Instead, focus on the main reason why you are there, which is to raise funds. It is best that you carry out the main event first before moving on to other activities for the day, which can include entertainment.

Use technology to make your work easier. For example, make it possible for attendees to register early for the occasion. This way, when the day of the event comes, you won't have to waste time registering guests at the door. In addition, platforms such as online crowdfunding websites and text to donate platforms will help to make your work easier, while ensuring that you raise money in a convenient manner.

Expand your donor base to include other people and not just those who will be physically attending your event. There may be lots of people who want to give to your cause but cannot attend the actual event for raising money. Make it possible for them to give through other channels. For example, they should be able to submit donations online.

Do not limit the donation day to just one day when you will be having the event. This can seriously limit the amount of money that you receive. The best thing is to give people as much time as possible to give their donations. For instance, allow them to give a few days or weeks leading up to the day of the main event. Also, allow them to give even after the main event has been held. This is in case someone wants to give but might not have the money to give right away or they might have forgotten to give on the main day of the event.

Keep your major donors engaged. People who are committed to your cause might not just want to give money, but also help you to raise more support. Give them the opportunity to do this. For instance, allow them to recruit other donors or act as community leaders. In addition, hold a series of activities to keep them busy and also send them newsletters with regular updates about what is going on with the cause.
