Peer-to-peer event season is upon us and we\u2019re so excited to see so many organizations\u2019 unique events! Many nonprofits take advantage of P2P fundraising and for good reason: people are much more likely to give if they know the person asking. Get your donors excited about your cause by hosting a P2P event that\u2019s sure to resonate with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Honestly, so many of our customers do an incredible job with their peer-to-peer events. We wish we could show you ALL of them, but for the sake of time, we\u2019ve compiled a few of our favorites. Check out these examples of in-person and virtual peer-to-peer fundraising events, and potentially gain inspiration for your next event!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Take A Bite Out of Pulmonary Fibrosis<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before we get into what this event is, let\u2019s take a moment to appreciate this fundraising goal success!<\/p>\n\n\n

254%! <\/strong>Seeing organizations that max out their original fundraising goal makes our hearts explode with joy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why we love it:\u00a0<\/strong>Besides the incredible fundraising goal that was met, we love seeing those fundraising thermometers. The name of the event gives potential attendees a clear idea that it\u2019s a food-based event and the event page is great in that it\u2019s straight to the point with high-quality images. High-quality images make such a difference on your form. If it appears professional, you\u2019re likely to gain lots of traction. All proceeds from this event go towards assisting those with\u00a0Pulmonary Fibrosis<\/a>\u00a0and continued medical research to find a cure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Purple Plunge 2019<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Why we love it:<\/strong>\u00a0Purple Plunge<\/a>\u00a0is a nonprofit cancer charity that hosts a chillingly successful event each year. Supporters sign up to jump into Lake Zurich in freezing temperatures to increase awareness and support to cancer survivors in their community. They take full advantage of what Qgiv has to offer on their form from embedding a thermometer, to making use of the P2P store selling branded hoodies, sweatshirts, and an adorable Purple Plunge penguin pop socket.\u00a0Check out that leaderboard, too! From teams, individuals, and donors, it\u2019s fun and inspiring to see the funds rolling in in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Including videos and photos from past plunges is a smart way to show newcomers what to expect as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
