“Influencers” is the buzzword of the week here on the DonorLynk blog. Every supporter, every contact within your nonprofit network has influence within their own social and professional networks. Volunteers are already a REAL representation of your message in action, so take advantage of their earnest desire to serve as, again, influencers!
Active volunteers are most likely to be hands on when it comes to raising money for your organization. In addition to making gifts themselves, volunteers are compelled to be proactive in engaging others on your behalf. The more you engage your volunteers, the more they are educated on how they can make a difference, don’t you see?
Provide these inspired supporters with a flexible platform they can use to further your reach as a nonprofit. With GiveLynk, volunteers can sign up on your website to create their own fundraiser. They are then supplied with a unique URL that houses their fundraiser information and giving form that they can share on social media and email. It’s as simple as that!
Put the same tool in the hands of your volunteers that they use to sign up to serve, to fundraise on your behalf! OneLynk gives your nonprofit the functionality to create registration forms for many unique purposes, specifically online giving, volunteering, and event attendance. Sign up and get started today!
