Jen and the team at Shuswap Trail Alliance were keen to kick off their second annual virtual fundraiser, but this year they were determined to come back with bigger and better goals, and still hit them out of the park! She succeeded in her goal, and her approach to success came from adding more fundraising drivers! In 2022, they utilized more features and diversified the ways donors could give, but ultimately, what allowed them to succeed was utilizing the new strategy of donation-augmented fundraising. 

What is donation-augmented you ask? It’s the new approach of strategically using donation asks throughout your fundraiser to encourage additional gifts for your organization. Organizations can raise 60% more in unrestricted funds that can be put toward your urgent needs on your next fundraiser by utilizing this strategy.

Although donation-augmented is a great strategy, it doesn’t stop there! Trellis recently conducted a  study that showed the biggest impact on organizations raising more came from combining revenue drivers. And, the impact was significant. For every additional fundraising driver added, on average the total funds raised doubled!

Curious how you can make the most of donation-augmented fundraising and raise more like Jen at Shuswap Trail Alliance? Join our next talk on July 14th where, Rebecca, a Fundraising Specialist from Trellis.org will be unpacking the results found in this study and sharing new tools and donation-augmented strategies modern charities are using to succeed.
