Nonprofit Fundraising Toolbox - Fundography

The work of a nonprofit is never easy, and trying to stay ahead of trends, putting together successful fundraising events, and promoting your cause takes never-ending dedication and commitment from you and your staff.

To help fuel your cause and get your creative juices flowing, we've put together a series of articles that will introduce you to new and innovative tools that you can add to your fundraising toolbox whenever you need to make a push for donations.

Fundography

 

Today's nonprofit tool is called Fundography, and it's a pretty amazing and innovative application that's really easy for you to put into play at all of your fundraising events.

The concept is simple. You organize one of your fundraising events as you normally would, something where you can invite potential donors to participate, such as a silent auction or a 5K.

Contact Fundography and let them know about your event. You can email them at [email protected].

On the day of the event, while everyone is having a good time, you and your guests take pictures using either a digital camera or an iPhone.

Then you simply upload those pictures to Fundography and create an Event Album.

Fundography will then allow anyone to purchase those photos for $2.50 a photo. For every photo sold, your nonprofit will receive $2 that will go toward your cause.

Here are a few tips Fundography suggest to help share your photos.

• Get posed smiling faces! 
• Photos of groups of friends are most likely to sell. 
• Always tell people you photograph the photo will be sold at Fundography.com. They won’t buy it if they can’t find it! 

It's that easy!
