Why it worked:

• We utilized the tools that Zeffy provides to share our donation page including the QR codes for events, the link on our social media/website (www.milesoflove.org), and we included the link in email communication to our supporters.

• We included how the donations will be used.

• We encourage our supporters to utilize the monthly feature to keep our fundraising efforts going

One thing others can learn from our donation page:

• Donors like to support causes that they trust, believe in, and support the mission. They also are more willing to donate when they can see how the funds will be used. We found that adding a meaningful photo that reflects our “why”, my son that passed away, has also helped connect our donation page to our organization, letting others know they are in the right spot!
