Inspired Campaigns. Proven Results.
Instead of a newsletter, we’re running an occasional series of “WhatWorks!” emails that highlight and profile winning campaigns, good advice, and data to help you be better fundraisers and advocates. We hope you find the email series helpful, and below are our archived versions for your convenience.
WHAT WORKS!
Why You Need APIs
Imagine an iPhone without iPhone Applications. It’s hard to do since it’s the iPhone Applications that make your iPhone so much more valuable than its “old school” functions of phone, email, and text.
WHAT WORKS!
Year-End Giving Begins Today
Blackbaud reported last month that 46% of all 2009 online giving was processed in the final three months of 2009. December accounted for 30% alone.
WHAT WORKS!
Social Media Makes Participants Better Fundraisers
Want to learn how Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube helped participant fundraisers hit their fundraising goals? How these social media tools compare to email solicitation? And, what can we expect to see looking around the corner for social media and event fundraising?
How to Expand Your Reach (Even During a Recession!)
Over the last several months, we’ve all experienced an economic downturn of epic proportions together. In times like these, every dollar counts (even more than usual). Thankfully, inexpensive ways to broaden your participant base and tap into new donors exist out there — you just need to know where to find them.
Achieving Breakthrough Results with World Bicycle Relief
An international nonprofit providing bicycles to nations in need of sustainable transportation, World Bicycle Relief (WBR) helps bring people in developing countries closer to vital healthcare, educational and economic opportunities. In the past, this small yet driven organization worked with Blackbaud Sphere (formerly Kintera) to facilitate donations (80% of donors made contributions via the Internet) and establish an effective online presence. In order to maximize its online fundraising efforts, however, WBR needed a little guidance.
We make history every night at The Paramount, but we also understand the importance of staying up-to-date and connecting with today’s tech-savvy audience. Charity Dynamics provided the right strategy and online expertise we needed to make our iPhone application a reality, and now we’re even better positioned to provide supporters with the best theatre experience possible.
