What's printed out around your desk?

Stephanie Thomas

We are getting prepped and ready for next year and trying to dream up ideas and resources that will be most helpful to our JustGiving users! In the past, we published many toolkits and guides to help you create campaigns, host events, motivate your fundraisers and marketing participation options.

What downloadable items (think PDF or Slide format) would help you most with your crowdfunding efforts?

• Wish you had a checklist for a campaign?
• Want a guide with sample emails to send and solicit fundraisers?
• Need an eBook with inspiring examples from your peers?
• Would like a document that shares fundraising or marketing best practices for your campaign?

Let me know what resource you wish you had or what resource you use all the time and we can see about publishing it for next year!

I would adore a sharable checklist for a P2P campaign resource that includes not just the "Fundraising with Blackbaud Peer-to-Peer" one that seems to be intended for promotion and new users, but a checklist for continuing users showing what steps need to be completed in database view, NXT, and JG for a P2P campaign from beginning to end, so things will run smoothly, including best practices advice and the best ways to pull reports (from JG and database view and NXT) specific to the P2P campaign. It should include elements from the resources named below and links to, or a bibliography citing, sources or places to get more in-depth information.


My JustGiving hard copy folder includes the following:

the JustGiving graphic "Are you getting the most form your Fundraising Page?"

A Blackbaud resource "Toolkits for Your Fundraisers"

The Blackbaud workbook "Raise More With Coaching"

Notes from the Blackbaud webinar "Summer School - Ways to Ace Peer-to-Peer Fundraising" about coaching fundraisers.

Various notes and printouts regarding our contract for JG, implementation, and setting up BBMS to receive funds from JG.
