How to Run a Successful Fundraising Campaign

Any nonprofit fundraising plan is bound to include plans for fundraising campaigns. These are short term fundraising initiatives for specific projects, programs or even general operating funds. The idea is to catalyze donors by presenting them with an irresistible opportunity to support your nonprofit’s mission. Of course, running a successful fundraising campaign can have a lot of parts and pieces. In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through what you need to do to run a successful fundraising campaign.

I always appreciate your ideas, Vanessa! We hope to do direct mail this fall as well as emails. I like your idea of more than one letter/email. We will also figure out our results/outcomes after our action. Thanks so much.

Glad you found this one helpful, Carolyn!

unfortunately, I'm on my own for my fundraiser, so... this is going to be a lot of work for me.

[@VanessaChaseLockshin]

Totally understand that, Danika! I've been a one-person shop before and it's a lot of plates to juggle. You can still take the concepts from this plan and scale them back to work for your situation.

Thank you so much for this video, I have just started looking into how/if it was possible for me to become a fundraiser having no experience. I am a retired Web Developer and now have quite a lot of free time and would truly love to support a particular charity in the Philippines in a highly deprived area that have literally just been devastated by fires and many have lost their make-shift homes. Their homes were very basic as these people are the poorest of the poor. I have a Christian friend who has been a missionary over there for about 8 years and they have done hugely well but what they really need is money. So my question is this, is it possible for me to become a fundraiser with absolutely no experience? I am not talking about small funding, these people live on a dumpsite and need access to a substantial sum. I have the time and the will to learn but I just do not have the confidence. Can I ask for your advice feedback please. Thanks Paul

We're Asking a non-profit intergenerational arts organization and asking for money is very hard for a non-profit organization because some people What to know what they're getting for giving/donations. We try to hard a salon and a silent auction online. However, items aren't what folks want. Any suggestions 🤔

[@VanessaChaseLockshin]

Hi Ramona - I think you may have answered your own questions. What you're doing isn't what folks want. Whether it's an online auction, a direct ask, or a community partnership, ensure the details of the fundraiser are going to be what your audience wants. I know that's extra work but it's worth figuring out!
