💡 Join Us Wednesdays for Fundraising Support & Q&A!

This session focuses on events and ticketed fundraising, showing you how to set up and manage physical, virtual and community events through People’s Fundraising. We’ll look at ticket types, pricing, capacity, attendee information, questionnaires, event communications, revenue sharing, and how events can create multiple supporter touch points before, during and after your campaign.

This session focuses on auctions, showing you how to create and manage online, silent, event-based or extended auction campaigns. We’ll explore auction lot setup, bidding options, supporter engagement, promotion, closing processes, and how auctions can be used for Christmas fundraising, corporate supporter activity, donated prizes, community events and high-value fundraising opportunities.

This session focuses on shops and product-based fundraising, helping charities sell items, gifts, merchandise, symbolic products or wish-list items online. We’ll explore how shop pages can be used for Christmas campaigns, supporter gifts, school and PTA fundraising, branded products and practical fundraising appeals. As with every session, there will also be time for general questions.

This session focuses on memberships and sponsorships, showing you how to build more regular, structured and loyal supporter relationships. We’ll explore how to create membership tiers, sponsorship options, recurring support, supporter benefits, renewals, and how these tools can help charities, schools, PTAs and community organisations develop more predictable income over time.

This session focuses on fundraising pages, teams and activity-based fundraising, including the new Strava support for fundraising pages. We’ll show how individual fundraisers, challenge participants, walking groups, runners, cyclists and teams can bring their stories and progress to life, helping supporters see the effort behind each campaign. The session will also include time for wider questions and discussion.

This session focuses on members lotteries, showing you how regular lottery-based fundraising can help build long-term supporter engagement and recurring income. We’ll explore how members lotteries work, how to structure entries and prizes, how to communicate the value to supporters, and how this approach can complement regular donations, memberships and other ongoing fundraising activity.

This session focuses on community, company and partner fundraising, helping charities think beyond individual donations and involve wider supporter networks. We’ll discuss how businesses, schools, groups, clubs, local communities and partner organisations can support campaigns, raise funds and extend your reach. There will also be time to discuss any other fundraising ideas or platform questions.

This session focuses on Christmas fundraising, giving you a chance to review your seasonal campaigns and ask practical questions before the busiest giving period. We’ll discuss campaign setup, supporter journeys, donations, raffles, shops, events, auctions and other tools that can help maximise festive fundraising. This session will also be open for wider questions on any topic.

This session focuses on final Christmas campaign checks and supporter engagement, helping you make sure your pages, messages and fundraising tools are ready before the main festive giving period. We’ll look at practical checks, supporter journeys, email and social sharing, page content, payment options, gift-based fundraising, and small improvements that can help increase participation and donations.

This session focuses on end-of-year fundraising and open Q&A, giving you a final opportunity to ask questions, review your campaigns and prepare for the last fundraising push of the year. We’ll cover Christmas giving, New Year appeals, campaign follow-up, thanking supporters, reviewing results, and planning how to build momentum into the next fundraising period.
