Fundraising Incentives?

Social Media?

Mobile?

Page 4: It's Working for Us - Could It Work For You? Creative Concepts in Peer-to-Peer Fundraising

We’ll Just Run An Incentive!

Extrinsic incentives do not work in the long term and REMOVE intrinsic motivation.

Changes focus to "what's in it for me” instead of the benefit of donating/fundraising.

Fundraising is an altruistic act and “rewarding it” crowds out the desire to do something good.

“But We Do Just Fine with Traditional Fundraising”

• Traditional fundraising events still have a place. • However, to expand even our traditional fundraising, we

rely on supporters and their friends. • The tide toward social fundraising means “asks” for

support by friends are becoming commonplace. • As your friends and theirs are recruited to support

other charities, if you don’t participate, you may lose ground you cannot gain back.
