Nonprofit instagram stories

Instagram launched the Stories feature in August 2016, and it’s really taken off since. At first, it was viewed simply like a copy of Snapchat, but it’s now far surpassed it.
The newest benefit to Instagram Stories is that nonprofit organizations can now use Instagram to secure donations. Since May 2019, there are donation stickers on the stories of verified Instagram nonprofits, which allows supporters to raise funds.
Here are some helpful suggestions for nonprofits who are using Instagram Stories or are looking to do so in the future.



Donor engagement cycle

Whether you are a newbie in fundraising or a seasoned expert, you probably know that the key to successful fundraising lies in building relationships.
When a donor is engaged with a nonprofit organization, they are much more likely to donate again and again (and give in other ways too).



Basketball fundraising

Your basketball group can host classes to help people in the local community improve their fitness. You can hold a basketball training session to stay on the theme – this way, your basketball group can also show off their skills!

iDEAL is the Netherlands’ most popular online payment method. It provides a secure way to easily process your donors’ bank payments, using their online banking portal to complete the transaction. iDEAL is user-friendly and offers much lower fees than traditional card payments.

Practices for Door-to-Door Fundraising

Door-to-door fundraising can be daunting for your fundraisers. They’ll likely get plenty of rejections but it can be highly effective — both for driving donations and raising awareness of your organization’s cause.

The latter can lead to donations later on, even if it’s not successful right away. Your fundraisers may be able to engage potential donors who are not receptive to other donation channels.
