Tips for Matching Grant Success

Clearly communicate to donors that they must look for the x2 money icon to ensure their donation is being matched.

Ask board members or others to put up a matching gift as their way of contributing – and then ask them to promote to their friends/colleagues

If you have multiple matching opportunities, keep an eye on them. You will want to close a page once the match has been met so that donors only contribute to current matching opportunities

Consider sending out 3 update emails staggered throughout Give to the Max Day – providing an update on your progress and encouraging donors to give throughout the day

Use the match to create a sense of urgency/excitement as part of your social media outreach

Offline donations can be added under the “Donations” tab, but don’t count towards the Give to the Max Day leaderboard

Customizing a Thank You Message

Thank You Video Videos pop up immediately after a donor makes a

donation.

Thank you message Add a few lines of text to make the thank you email

more personal. Consider adding special thank you messages for Give

to the Max Day

Creating a Project Page

If you are an admin, your fundraising page will be created as a project.

Page 27: Everything you need to know about give to the max day 2013

Organization Page vs. Project PageOrganization Page Simple. Avoid confusion

for donors by having just one page on which they could donate to your organization.

No set goal or fundraising progress ‘thermometer’ on page or in search results

Project Page Tell an additional story

with text, photos, videos, and suggested donation levels

Set a specific dollar goal and display ‘thermometer’

May create clutter or donor confusion

Great for highlighting different fundraising objectives (i.e. backpacks vs. senior services)

What happens whena donor makes a donation?

• The organization’s administrator immediately receives an email notification which includes the donation amount and the donor’s contact information (if it is not an anonymous gift).

• The donor immediately receives an email from Razoo/GiveMN which is their IRS receipt . While the email thanks the donor, it is a thank you from Razoo/GiveMN, not from the organization. We strongly encourage the organization to follow up with a thank you note shortly thereafter.

• Donations are paid out the 10th of each month for the prior month’s donations.
