Our online fundraising platform currently offers four kinds of fundraising types: General Crowdfunding, Peer-to-Peer, Donation Forms and Ticketing

Fundraising sites, donation forms, and ticketing forms are easy to set up, customize to your brand, and tailor to your needs without needing a tech guy! You can take donations everyday and run all your online fundraising campaigns on CauseVox.

Here's a quick look at these fundraising types so you can decide how you can use one or a combination of them to maximize your donations.

General Crowdfunding Sites

Crowdfunding Sites are customizable fundraising sites that you can create to help you raise more funds online for capital campaigns, year-end campaigns, virtual events, and more.

Crowdfunding sites are easy for you to design according to your brand and include:

  • A media section

  • Fundraising metrics

  • Sections for written text (for your fundraising appeal)

  • Blog

  • Donor listing

  • A customized donation form

  • Easily downloadable donation data

  • + more

Crowdfunding sites are best if you'd like to fundraise for a particular project, develop an online fundraising community, tell your story, and communicate progress to your community.

Peer-to-Peer Fundraising Sites

Peer-to-Peer Fundraising Sites are customizable fundraising sites that allow you to activate your key supporters and help you raise up to 2x the funds for virtual campaigns like, runs, walks, challenges, galas, and more!

With personal and team fundraising, you're able to have your friends, family, and networks sign up for their own personal fundraising page connected to your fundraising site. They set their own fundraising goal and can enter in their own text (you'll put in some default text for them though) and they can send their page out to their networks to donate to your cause.

If you're doing an event or competition where there are groups of people involved, then these fundraising pages can be joined to a team page, where funds will be be totaled for all the fundraising pages under the team.

This causes an organic growth of your campaign, where new people are introduced to your cause by their family and friends. We've seen that campaigns that use personal and team fundraising effectively tend to raise twice as much as those without personal and team fundraising enabled.

Additionally, here's our Personal & Team Fundraising Page FAQ.

Peer-to-peer sites are easy for you to design according to your brand and include:

  • A media section

  • Fundraising metrics

  • Peer-to-peer leaderboard and personal and team pages

  • Sections for written text (for your fundraising appeal)

  • Blog

  • Donor listing

  • A customized donation form

  • Easily downloadable donation data and fundraiser data

  • + more
