Fundraising Events: Are they worth your time to host?

We’re big fans of ClickBid to manage your entire event from a single platform. ClickBid makes it painless to set up your virtual auction and accept bids online. Your donors easily interact with and bid on your items. When the auction is over, payments are collected securely online and deposited directly into your account. They also offer custom landing pages, ticket sales, live event streaming, text-to-give, and more.

Many of our clients use Give Lively and love the platform. If you don’t have an online fundraising platform to accept donations from your website, one that can easily create custom pages for every campaign, and welcome monthly donors, check out Give Lively today!

The Give Lively founders cover the cost of running the business so that they never have to charge nonprofits for use of their fundraising platform.

If your nonprofit is raising funds at events, but not tracking the donations properly, post-event follow up is incredibly difficult. Whether your nonprofit is already using Salesforce and needs support for staff training, customizations, automations or special projects, or you want to implement Salesforce, Guiding Force is your answer! The team works with nonprofits exclusively to consolidate data to drive strategy, innovation, and improve staff efficiencies.
