FAQs
How do crowdfunding and peer-to-peer fundraising differ?
Peer-to-peer fundraising relies on individuals and teams made up of multiple individuals to fundraise on behalf of the organization, primarily through personalized giving pages. Crowdfunding on the other hand is more centralized, with donations flowing through a single campaign page. Oftentimes crowdfunding campaigns include a broader story or narrative to help enlist donations.
What are the major perks of peer-to-peer-fundraising?
For starters, four out of five donors who donate to a fundraiser are brand new to an organization. The exposure opportunities associated with peer-to-peer fundraising are reason alone to integrate it into your larger donation strategy.
Peer-to-peer fundraising pages also allow individuals to elevate their personal stories and explain their connection to the cause, which oftentimes resonates with people in a way that motivates immediate action.
Peer-to-peer fundraising lends itself well to seasonal campaigns too, like annual giving days, endurance events, memorial campaigns, or corporate giving challenges. These timely initiatives can help boost fundraising year round.
