Dear
There are many forms of peer-to-peer fundraising out there as our most recent Peer-to-Peer Fundraising Thirty results demonstrated. Asking friends, family and colleagues for their support for a cause, or a new endeavor, is exploding -- one estimate puts all forms of crowdfunding at over $5 billion.
- More than 28 percent of donors on crowdfunding platforms are repeat donors, which speaks to the importance of cultivating your existing participant donor base. We hosted a terrific webinar last year with some great tips on how to unleash the power of your 'outliers,' the small, passionate group of supporters who deliver a disproportionate share of your revenue.
- Fundraisers who use a video raise two times more than those without videos. And, It turns out that emotional, personal requests trump high-end video production. Here are some ideas for creating effective videos from a recent FundRaising Success article.
Now that Spring is finally here, training is getting underway for many of your programs. Be sure to equip your new and repeat participants with turnkey fundraising tools to get them off on the right foot. You'll find lots of them at www.peertopeerforum.com

WEBINAR: What Drives Successful Independent Fundraising Events
|
 
Tuesday, April 15 at 1:30 pm ET
Independent Fundraising Event (IFE) programs are already in place in numerous nonprofit organization's fundraising strategies. Despite the growing importance of these programs, very little has been known about their overall role. Until now.
The IFE Study conducted by Charity Dynamics is the first industry-wide look at program trends, including expected growth, program structure, considerations for implementation and the driving factors behind IFE programs.
Join Charity Dynamics' CEO Donna Wilkins as she shares the key findings and makes recommendations for IFE success. Kelley Hohl of the Humane Society of the United States will provide real world insight into how these programs work within an organization's fundraising strategy and how beneficial IFE implementation can be. Between the report findings and the real world experience of a remarkable nonprofit organization, this webinar will be packed with insight and information valuable to all nonprofit professionals including:
- Expected growth and revenue for IFE programs
- Program structures and drivers
- Recommendations for strengthening your existing IFE program
- Tips on launching a new IFE program at your nonprofit
