With the confirmed agenda so far now out, what better time to meet our amazing sponsors for the day?
Charity Digital’s free, virtual event, #BeMoreDigital Fundraising Day, is just around the corner and we’re getting very excited to bring you all the fantastic digital fundraising content we’ve got planned.
We’ll be joined by a range of charity and technology experts to deliver you a host of virtual content for the day, covering everything from community fundraising to social media to text donation. You won’t want to miss it.
We’ve recently confirmed the agenda for the event. We would not be able to bring you this varied programme of free content without the help and partnership of our sponsors, and their continued support of the UK charity sector.
Each of ours sponsors of #BeMoreDigital Fundraising Day will be running their own session, bringing you their valued tech knowledge and expertise on a range of digital fundraising topics.
The #BeMoreDigital Fundraising Day 2020 sponsors are:
AWS is a leading provider of reliable, flexible and scalable cloud computing services. AWS are helping charities across the UK to develop innovative cultures and digital operating models.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, charities have had to find new and innovative ways to secure donations. A majority of charities turned to digital and data-driven methods to diversify their income. With COVID-19 restrictions in place and a national lockdown, digital donor experiences became a lifeline for charities, if they were to continue fundraising successfully.
Over the past few months, successful fundraising campaigns have been those that put donor experience at the heart of their strategy. AWS will be taking us through how charities can effectively use this process of ‘working backwards’ from the donor and showcasing how other charities have successfully adapted to digital fundraising models that make better use of their data assets and sustain their missions.
Enthuse are the fundraising, donations and events registration platform for charities. So far, they’ve helped over 4,000 charities fundraise digitally.
Ensuring that your charity has repeat donors is one of the most important aspects of fundraising. A strong brand is a fundamental component of this, so that your donors remember your organisation, your cause and your message. A strong brand image will compel one-time donors to become long-term supporters.
But with so much competition, it can be hard for charities to cut through the noise. Many donors often forget who they’ve donated to online, putting charities at risk as they fail to secure those all-important repeat donations.
Using insights from their recent Donor Pulse study, Enthuse’s session will provide you with an action plan for making your cause memorable and distinct online.
Phoenix are providers of cloud-based technology to the UK public sector. They specialise in data, security and AI and will be joining us for #BeMoreDigital Fundraising Day as session sponsors.
In a changing digital landscape, charities have to be prepared for anything that may come their way. Being able to adapt and respond quickly to changing situations will ensure that organisations can continue to fundraise effectively no matter what.
Ensuring your fundraising staff and operations are secure is key to this. With most charities now working from home, or opting for a blended working model, securing and protecting your staff and beneficiaries should be a top priority for charities. Secure working systems allow charities to digitally fundraise safely.
Join Phoenix Software and Sophos for their session, as they look at what it takes to secure your fundraising staff and the critical work they are doing. They will look at how a new approach to security can help consolidate resource, reduce costs and deliver more time back to your charity to focus on fundraising and delivering vital services.
Donr offer charities a dedicated text giving platform, aimed at giving supporters a quick and convenient way to give both one-off amounts and regular giving through their mobile number.
Text donation has always been a great option for charities and donors alike to fundraise quickly and conveniently.
During the COVID-19 lockdown, over 2,000 charities used Donr to run creative text donation campaigns. Donations soared between March and July, with many charities reaping the rewards of text-to-donate campaigns.
In their session, speakers from Donr will be joined by some fantastic charity case studies to showcase and celebrate some of the best text donation campaigns they’ve seen over the past 6 months.
