Introductory Non-Cash Campaigns

Encourage donations of non-cash assets.

iDonate has created all the materials you'll need to run campaigns to both tell donors that you can accept noncash donations and ask them to donate specific noncash items. The Introductory Campaign, entitled Imagine the Possibilities will help you tell your donors about your new capabilities to take noncash donations.

We highly recommend running this campaign before you run a campaign asking for a specific asset. Often, the idea of giving noncash items is new and donors need to become familiar with it before being asked for specific items.
