CauseVox provides a mobile-friendly, versatile portal so they can easily create and manage any number of custom fundraising pages.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at the different levels of peer-to-peer fundraising you can use for your next giving day.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/causevox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/JqC7AIYlBLJk127nnDHQQLKdcBk6wITWOfT19yp-iEVuadJlrY0Jmcep2RVSJ8_zL4KWoQodT4e1FeNhrOse2VORjaBlQNjyMaSSX8eMFO5NPph4pTfJ2bJ9X8Cd_0oKH6KzsGaY6WdpZbb8_d3i2g0.png\" alt=\"causevox-giving-day-organization-page\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>CauseVox&#8217;s Giving Day Organization Page<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Organization Pages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>CauseVox makes it easy for partnering organizations to create a page integrated with your custom site to support you or champion local charities. Consider inviting organizations such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Corporate sponsors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Schools and colleges<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Religious organizations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>+ Many more<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Individuals associated with these organizations can easily join in. By signing up, fundraisers create a dedicated page linked to the organization page, ensuring that their contributions are pooled together for a collective impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s how it works: organization admins create a page for approval. Once given the green light, fundraisers can join the page or be placed there by admins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Organization admins enjoy a self-service portal, providing full control and flexibility over page details, donation and fundraiser management to help streamline workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/causevox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/giving-day-3-1.png\" alt=\"causevox-giving-day-personal-team-pages\" class=\"wp-image-48959\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>CauseVox&#8217;s Giving Day Personal and Team Pages<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Personal and Team Pages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Foster collaboration with dedicated personal and team pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Personal fundraisers are dedicated champions raising funds on behalf of your organization. Every donation made through their page not only reflects on the personal page, but also resonates across any organizations and teams they&#8217;re associated with, leaving a tangible mark on the main fundraising site. By creating a personal page, individuals drive impact and weave their efforts into the broader narrative of your cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Team pages add another layer and can be your &#8220;go-to&#8221; on giving days as powerhouse fundraisers work together seamlessly on one page. Each team sets a goal calculated by adding up individual goals. All funds raised on personal pages automatically contribute to the team total, along with direct donations to the team page.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating a team is straightforward \u2013 it can be initiated by the campaign admin or any personal fundraiser. Fundraisers can quickly sign up on mobile to create their personal page, then join any existing team or create their own team page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Upgrade Donor Engagement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Donor engagement becomes the heartbeat of giving days, transforming a simple transaction into a meaningful interaction. CauseVox\u2019s visionary donation form elevates an ordinary donation process to an exceptional donor experience, increasing funds and happier donors.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enhanced Donation Carts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On giving days, donors are eager to support multiple teams and causes, making the Donation Cart the perfect donation vehicle. It allows donors to seamlessly add multiple donation items to their cart and attribute each donation to a different personal, team, or organization page, all in one go. This means that during giving days, donors can fund causes and support teams with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Donation Carts help to transform giving day donations into an interactive and enjoyable online shopping journey. You can recommend causes aligned with donors&#8217; interests, increasing engagement and gift sizes while helping to reduce transaction fees, enhance data collection, and gain insights for targeted stewardship activities. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.causevox.com\/blog\/product-update-enhanced-donation-carts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about our Enhanced Donation Carts<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a short video overview of the Donation Cart:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.loom.com\/embed\/2a2a9e61ca7b42139350ee75380f672b?sid=4df35565-5283-440e-8c4f-99c529ff75df\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen style=\"position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Impressive Site Dynamics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Generate excitement and urgency during your giving day with real-time site dynamics such as progress bars and counters, power-hour fundraising and leaderboards.
