Chariot

DAFpay is officially live for the Walk to End Alzheimer's, the second largest peer-to-peer event in the country! 🎉 The marquee event for Alzheimer's Association® involves walks in 600 communities around the country, that are already seeing new DAF gifts streaming in through DAFpay in their first week. We are thrilled to see so much more of the $230 billion in DAFs being put to great use ending Alzheimer's! 💸 Peer-to-Peer is the perfect setting to take advantage of embedded digital DAF giving. Your organization is reaching thousands of new potential donors through your participants' networks - and anyone with a DAF is much more likely to use their credit card if they don't see DAFpay at checkout. Find a walker to support and try DAFpay for yourself at the link below.👇 #nonprofit #fundraising #philanthropy

If you're feeling overwhelmed on how to communicate DAF Day to your donors, start right here! These nine steps come from Cathy Asmus of the ACLU, Rupert Schultz of Boys and Girls Clubs of America and  Kelley Riedy of the American Heart Association, who joined us for a webinar to talk about how nonprofits can approach marketing for DAF Day: everything from segmenting, to channels, to communications points, to goal-setting. If you want more, the entire conversation is recapped in our blog (link in the comments!) Don't miss our webinar next Wednesday 28th August on The Future of Fundraising: 10 Ways DAFs Are Taking Individual Giving to New Heights. #DAFDay

We interrupt our regularly-scheduled DAF Day Campaign to take a good look at the performance data behind DAFs! This is a must-attend for fundraisers and data-driven impact leaders alike. We're talking to Pan-Mass Challenge about how they raised 3.5M in DAFs from 5,000 different donors using 100+ different DAFS. And we'll hear from the March of Dimes CFO on how they were able to study DAFpay data to find that 50% of their DAF gifts were from brand new donors! All while digging into the freshest data available on DAFs to better understanding what's happening in nonprofit DAF fundraising in recent years - and where it's going! Spoiler alert: we see a future where a rapidly growing group of DAF Donors (214X faster, in fact!) is poised to make a huge impact on nonprofits. Hope to see 100% of you there next Wednesday!
