The coronavirus outbreak has not been kind to fundraisers. However, the virus doesn\u2019t change your supporters\u2019 feelings about your organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Empower your supporters to fundraise on your behalf with DIY fundraising.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your supporters are likely more than willing to help you fundraise even if it\u2019s not at an in-person event. DIY fundraising gives your supporters the creative freedom to raise funds their way on behalf of your organization. All you need to do is offer them advice, resources, and support (from a distance, of course!). Use these tips to empower your supporters to start their own DIY fundraising campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\" id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-22c3bdcb-57d2-4acd-bb73-f69b73b0e73d\"><span class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-22c3bdcb-57d2-4acd-bb73-f69b73b0e73d\" id=\"hs-cta-22c3bdcb-57d2-4acd-bb73-f69b73b0e73d\"><!--[if lte IE 8]>\n\n<div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div>\n\n<![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/8356283\/22c3bdcb-57d2-4acd-bb73-f69b73b0e73d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"hs-cta-img\" id=\"hs-cta-img-22c3bdcb-57d2-4acd-bb73-f69b73b0e73d\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/8356283\/22c3bdcb-57d2-4acd-bb73-f69b73b0e73d.png\"  alt=\"Want to learn how to host cost-effective peer-to-peer fundraisers?

Start by sending out an email to volunteers and staff, make calls to your board members, and reach out to donors who have taken part in peer-to-peer fundraisers with you in the past. These will be the groups most likely to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However you communicate with your supporters, your goal should be to invite them to participate and show them how to get started. Provide instructions on how supporters can set up Facebook fundraisers and assign your nonprofit as the beneficiary. For instance, you can also offer to create personalized online donation forms for supporters who want to fundraise for you (Qgiv\u2019s peer-to-peer tools give donors the power to design their own personal fundraising pages). This way, their network can give to a specific form and have their gifts apply to your supporters\u2019 fundraising goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Offer DIY fundraising resources<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources for fundraisers<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Qgiv\u2019s peer-to-peer tools make it easy to give each donor their own unique fundraising page. First, create a peer-to-peer event and offer free registration for fundraisers. You don\u2019t need to host an event or add start and end dates. After registrants sign up, they set up their fundraising page. Once complete, supporters can set up their own email and social campaigns within Qgiv. If you need more information on what\u2019s possible with Qgiv\u2019s fundraising tools, take a look at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/peer-to-peer-fundraising\">peer-to-peer product page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"862\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Example-of-Personal-Fundraising-Page-1024x862.jpg\" alt=\"An example of a Personal Fundraising Page in Qgiv supporters can use to support your nonprofit.\" class=\"wp-image-18035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Example-of-Personal-Fundraising-Page-1024x862.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Example-of-Personal-Fundraising-Page-300x253.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Example-of-Personal-Fundraising-Page-768x646.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Example-of-Personal-Fundraising-Page-1536x1293.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Example-of-Personal-Fundraising-Page.jpg 1675w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Encourage your supporters to set up a Facebook fundraiser in conjunction with their Qgiv Personal Fundraising Page. A Facebook fundraiser is easily shareable and easy to donate to making it low hanging fruit for your supporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"771\" height=\"815\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-18036 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Facebook-Fundraiser-Image-Screen-Shot.jpg\" alt=\"Screen Shot Showing an Example of a Personal Facebook Fundraising Campaign.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Facebook-Fundraiser-Image-Screen-Shot.jpg 771w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Facebook-Fundraiser-Image-Screen-Shot-284x300.jpg 284w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Facebook-Fundraiser-Image-Screen-Shot-768x812.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 771px) 100vw, 771px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When your supporters set up a Facebook fundraiser or online giving form, empower them to maximize their fundraising potential. Try sending your supporters fundraising resources that teach them to fundraise more effectively! If you don\u2019t have resources already developed, now is a good time to have your development staff discuss fundraising best practices and develop resources that will help them and your supporters when executing fundraising campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because in-person events and face-to-face fundraising are risky right now, discourage that style of fundraising. Instead, share ideas on how your supporters can give digitally! For instance, your supporters can post regularly with links to their Facebook fundraiser or post a link to their custom donation form on their social media accounts. In addition, live streaming to ask for support, celebrate milestones, or perform skits\/activities to solicit donations online are helpful ways to get noticed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources for crafters and artists<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>If your supporters are crafters or artists, now is a great time for them to showcase their talents. The outbreak is causing more people to spend time at home. This means a lot of potential time to make crafts or pieces of art, for instance. These items can be sold via social media (like Facebook marketplace) and then set aside with a promise to ship when it\u2019s safe to do so. Because digital art can be sent via email right away, artists creating via their computers can send their purchased art right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your supporters are using Qgiv&#8217;s peer-to-peer tools for DIY fundraising, they can use widgets to display their art with suggested donation amounts for each piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Support your supporters<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Your supporters will engage in a DIY fundraising campaign because they care about your organization and its mission. Support their fundraising campaign by being available to them. Create an email for support questions and advice. Be a sounding board your supporters can bounce ideas off. Remember, you\u2019re the fundraising pros. Your supporters likely won\u2019t have the know-how that you do, and they\u2019ll probably have questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of supporting your supporters is taking time to monitor their fundraisers. If a DIY campaign starts to stagnate or isn\u2019t making much progress from the start, reach out, talk it over, and figure out how they can overcome any challenges they\u2019re facing. Work with the DIY fundraiser and let them know you\u2019re there to back up their efforts. Advise them on steps they can take to maximize their potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take note of whether your supporters are posting regularly about your fundraiser on social media. Do they share their story? Is that story compelling? Are they using authentic images or stock photos? How are they communicating about their fundraiser and about your organization? These are all factors that can create barriers to giving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Give supporters&#8217; DIY fundraisers some love<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It doesn\u2019t hurt to promote your supporters\u2019 DIY fundraisers in your own channels. Supporting your DIY fundraisers costs nothing and can have several benefits. Not only could sharing an impressive DIY fundraiser on your social channels get that campaign more donations, it could also inspire others to start their own. Sharing a DIY campaign on your channels also shows your appreciation of their efforts and can endear your organization to the donor campaigning on your behalf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The coronavirus is taking many fundraising events off the table. As a result, development staff members are stretched thin switching gears to make up for cancelled events. You can expand your development staff during this difficult time by encouraging your supporters to fundraise on your behalf. By letting your donors, volunteers, and staff create DIY fundraisers, you\u2019re empowering them to make a difference on behalf of your organization. You\u2019re creating opportunities to generate additional revenue while also building relationships with those who help your organization fundraise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Encourage digital fundraising rather than in-person campaign efforts. Your supporters can live stream, host Facebook fundraisers, make crafts\/art and more to fundraise for you. The only limits placed on your supporters\u2019 campaigns are determined by their ability to stay safe and be creative with their fundraising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Need DIY fundraising resources or other fundraising ideas in order to continue fundraising during the coronavirus outbreak?
