Inspire giving by truthfully telling your story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As the saying goes, honesty is the best policy. People want to trust that their donations are going toward a legitimate cause. Be honest in telling your story to reassure those who are looking to help. If a donor connects with your story they will be more willing to donate. Encourage potential donors to visit your fundraiser page to get more details\u2014and to become part of your journey with their donation. To learn more about storytelling, take a look at our guide on crafting a compelling campaign story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-tailor-your-message-to-who-youre-asking\"><\/span>2. Tailor your message to who you\u2019re asking<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to receive a positive response\u2014and a donation\u2014is to appeal to each potential donor\u2019s individual interests. If you know someone who would respond better to a warm, lighthearted request, keep your wording to ask for donations informal and bright. For someone such as a colleague who may respond better to a formal approach, deliver your message accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be nervous about asking for help. It\u2019s good to know that even people who regularly organize fundraisers still get nervous. Requesting donations online can be made easier by using a mental checklist and practicing your approach. Here are a few tips on how to ask for donations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PERSONALIZE YOUR REQUEST<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you ask for donations, focus on more than just the need. Also think about the types of donors you\u2019re asking, and what their understanding and needs might be. When approaching a potential donor, ask yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why does this person care? There is a reason you reached out to him or her for donations. Keep that reason in mind, and communicate it when you approach each potential donor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What relationship does this person have with the beneficiary? Maybe an individual is a family member of the beneficiary. A tip for how to ask for money from family is to bring up this relationship when asking for donations. This is to create more personal, intimate communication and boost your chances of getting a donation. Touching on the relationship is important to do with anyone you ask, whether they\u2019re a childhood friend or neighbor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why would they have reservations? Keep in mind reasons someone might not want to donate, and try to address them. For example, some people may worry they can\u2019t afford to make a large enough donation to make a difference. By addressing this concern and listing specific expenses that can be paid with small donations, you can get more people to contribute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TRY A FUNDRAISING LETTER<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sending a personal fundraising letter to potential donors can increase the number of donations you receive. This may sound time consuming, but it\u2019s effective. It separates your message from the dozens of spam requests a person might receive. It also shows that your request is about more than money\u2014it\u2019s about the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-create-a-sense-of-urgency\"><\/span>3. Create a sense of urgency<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to convey a sense of urgency when sharing your fundraiser. Without that urgency, your potential donors may consider waiting to donate\u2014requiring you to ask them again down the line. Explain what will happen if you don\u2019t raise the money in a certain amount of time, and you\u2019ll likely see a spike in donations. Keep in mind that even negative consequences can still be framed in a positive light. Our blog on the psychology of giving is a good resource to reference for similar tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-use-email-to-your-advantage\"><\/span>4. Use email to your advantage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One major strength of email: You can ask friends and family to forward the non-personalized portion of the message to their own circle. Consider crafting a block of text they can easily use for that purpose, and calling it out as such in your email. Additionally, email is great for online fundraising without social media since it\u2019s efficient, low cost, and easy to track your progress. Successfully reach your fundraising goals by taking advantage of these fundraising email templates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-make-it-easy-to-donate\"><\/span>5. Make it easy to donate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While this is obvious, it can be easy to forget: Make it easy for people to make a donation. Include the link to your donation page in your ask, and don\u2019t be afraid to point out exactly where the donation button is located on your fundraiser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-be-specific-in-your-ask\"><\/span>6. Be specific in your ask<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Providing people with specific information is a strong way to grab their attention. Give potential donors clear-cut reasons why they should donate to your cause. In your ask, be sure to break down these three things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your current situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason why you\u2019re fundraising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your desired outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LIST ADDITIONAL EXPENSES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be specific in your list of expenses as well. Some ways to be specific include using numbers, making a checklist, and listing additional costs. It can also be effective to get specific with the requested amounts. For example, \u201cA 1250\/- donation will allow Jahan to fill one month\u2019s prescriptions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some successful fundraisers itemize every expense\u2014not just a big-ticket item like a surgery or funeral, but the gas money needed for rides to the doctor, transportation fees for a hearse or van, and other, smaller expenses. Potential donors will appreciate transparency. Visit Social For Action Causes to see more examples of how certain donation amounts can help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-bottom-line\"><\/span>The Bottom Line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Above all, remember that people enjoy helping others.
