10 Simple Truths About Digital Fundraising
Our data-packed ebook showcases the critical need for an optimized, Donor-First Fundraising approach and where so many nonprofits are getting it wrong.
This month’s issue features another incredible organization, Midwest Food Bank. Midwest is comprised of 10 locations around the country, one in Kenya, and multiple locations throughout Haiti, that provide essential food relief services to thousands of people in need every year. They’re a highly rated charity that runs an incredibly efficient food distribution operation; perhaps you’ve heard or seen them as they’ve been nationally recognized. In our feature story, we’ve highlighted their significant gains in both online giving and donor retention since partnering with iDonate.
This month’s issue also features information on peer-to-peer (P2P) fundraising. P2P can be confusing, as there are so many terms and “use cases” for how the strategy and technologies can be deployed. You’ll hear terms like P2P, DIY, Crowdfunding, and many others.

Peer-to-peer pages allow them to keep their story and journey fresh for their supporters, make it incredibly easy for their supporters to give, and even keep the nonprofit up-to-date on all of their fundraising activities—as well as the donors they may not yet have a connection with.
