I'm a project manager with mighty cause We are the platform provider for give education And we are excited to be here with you all again this year Real quick if you're like what the heck is mighty cause? We are a fully functional organization fundraising suite So organizations use mighty cause every day of the year to raise money for their causes We have been around since 2006 and we were actually one of the first platforms to start hosting giving days So we are super excited to again you involve and give education this year We also have Kerry joining us from alumni nations and Josh from Central High School Foundation So I'm going to pass it over to Kerry and Josh so they can say hello. Hi, this is Kerry Thank you so much for attending today. We're very excited to have our best year ever for good give education and Thank you for joining and please spread the word if there's anyone else that you think could benefit from this program on March 1st We'd love to see them and help them participate. Hi, and my name is Josh I'm with the Central High School Foundation in Omaha, Nebraska And I'm the creative director and database administrator for the Central High School Foundation But I was looking through my notes. I believe this is our ninth consecutive giving day participation of some kind and so If you ever have any questions as we go through this Please feel free to message us or just send a message in the general chat and we'll try to get to you Well, we're excited to have you both joining us today. There's lots of just a ton of content to cover and we're going to appreciate your insight So real quick look at our agenda We're going to be going over some of the basics just in general for giving days if you're brand new to the space As well as kind of the basics for give education And then I'm going to walk you through how to kind of customize your organization page Kind of give you a like a tutorial demo walkthrough showing you how to register and you can edit pages upload logos edit any content And it's a good little refresher if you have participated before just to remember where to find reports and all that good stuff And then of course at the end we'll have a Q&A So if you do have any questions, like I said, you can send them through the Q&A and we will get to them throughout the webinar So what is a giving day for those who are new who maybe have not participated in giving days before a giving day It's an online fundraising marathon So it's aiming to bring together, you know, people who are supporting a specific community or a cause or space All at the same time. So the giving day hosts who are in this case are alumni nations They organize the event and then they rally you all your organizations or schools to help fundraise for your cause So organizations who are participating in a giving day They're typically provided resources which we have on the site for you different tools different, you know You know kind of templates all sorts of good content that's provided by our hosts to help you reach out to your supporters to solicits and donations You know engage your alumni help secure peer-to-peer fundraisers and release, you know, put in some work And rally people around your growing network Um as for how giving days work. So as we noted the giving day, it's a unique campaign It's presented by our hosts alumni nations It's providing you the opportunity to capitalize on the urgency of kind of a limited time frame So instead of you know trying to solicit donations throughout the year and having them kind of trickle in this provides you a special You know 24 hour event it creates urgency with your donors to help raise money for your cause So it's a really exciting way for you to engage, you know new sponsors It provides you an opportunity to reach out to community partners to create try to create these new relationships As well as engage, you know parents Whoever is a part of your school your school board PTO to create peer-to-peer fundraisers So you can kind of extend your network with supporters even further You can help spread a word about your organization or your mission And basically the important kind of thing is that there's this limited time frame to help create that sense of urgency that donors are going to tend to respond to To help you reach whatever goals you've set for yourself for this giving day So whether that's a you know reaching out to a certain amount of new people or engaging new people Maybe you want to create have you know more people create peer-to-peer fundraisers for this year Everyone's goals are going to be different So that's something to think about which we will also cover in our next webinar That's kind of here in terms of the strategy around the giving day So I'm going to pass it over to Kerry to cover a little bit about give education Absolutely. Thank you, Sarah. So give education. This is our third year in in practice And we are hosted by alumni nations, which is an organization that helps all of you and networks or alumni schools across the country Keep in touch with their alumni and help really build a community building an engaging community that takes care of the schools But they're fun The event is again going to take place on Wednesday March 1st And it is a 24-hour giving day as Sarah mentioned one of the things that I'd like to take a minute to Encourage you as we've had a number of different participants over the years who maybe had goals such as $1,200 to raise money for Special teacher kits we've had schools and parent groups and foundations Want to raise money for scholarships or even something that's $10,000 for a playground in all situations The beautiful thing about this giving day is it's really it's a turnkey approach for you and we hand you the platform to get out and solicit your Community engage your community and have some fun with it and we really encourage you were Seven weeks out a lot of people think that you know this and I'll ask Josh to talk about this as well But you know seven weeks out isn't enough time or that you need a year to do this The reality is when it comes to these giving days people give you know when they're notified they give usually right away So we have plenty of time To you have plenty of time to at least even send an e-blast out to your community Just say we're participating in give education on March 1st. Here's what our goals are Here's what we're trying to achieve click here and donate and it's really a wonderful way to Empower your community to feel like they're helping and to be able to watch through the mighty cause website We're through our website rather that you know watch watch the money pile up and and see how they're really benefiting And it's an instant. It's in real time So it's it's a wonderful day We really hope that you know, you'll get your page set up and continue to sign up with the finances and everything so that the money Can be dropped into your account. We are also giving away We have a benefit. We have received a donation from the Comer Foundation So we will be giving away golden tickets or hourly prices So by participating and raising money we see the money go in and you know You might automatically or randomly be selected rather to receive a financial award as well So there's really no downside to joining and getting your profile set up today And I am here to my team and I are here to help you Set up your profile and make sure that you see a successful give education day and it's been really rewarding to hear the testimonials from the Organizations that have participated in the last few years and how beneficial it has been and their their response is always the same We participated this year We will be back next year and so we really look forward to this is your first step getting you guys signed up And then seeing you all come back year after year as you continue to grow your financial goals Registration is required again very easy. I think in Josh will talk to it. I think it's you know a hand 15 20-minute setup period and then you can obviously spend more time setting things up But it's made very easy for you and we even give you templates for your marketing campaigns that you can download and just fill Your name in and send out so we've tried to make this as easy as possible for you to engage your community Have fun and really start to build that loyalty in years to come Yeah, and I was just gonna say that one of the cool things that we have since we have the mighty cause platform is that When you participate every year it will remember you from the previous year So, you know, if this maybe is your second or third year Participating give education day, you don't have to go back in and kind of start over from scratch Everything should still be in there from when you first signed up So they really make it super easy to just re-enroll year after year if you want to participate and the other thing too that I wanted to say is that Give education day allows you to give more than once right? So like yes early be early giving begins in February But we it's not uncommon uncommon for us to see people give more than once because it's such a fun social Event maybe they'll give early February, but then they'll also give on the day of the event So it's just a really great way to maximize the use of some of those smaller donors who want to participate and contribute All right, so getting started So you are interested at what's next first things first you're definitely going to need to register like Carrie said Registration form is super easy I'll show you kind of roughly what it looks like when I switch over to the screen sharing of the actual site But to participate you'll basically just go to the give education site. You'll click register And then you know click the register button on the actual page and it'll have you either login Or If you're already logged in you can just select your Organization and then it'll prompt you with kind of a couple questions And then you're basically in and then you can start organizing on your page and getting everything set up super easy very seamless And then you're going to want to start to plan your fundraising campaign Like Carrie said you have plenty of time to kind of figure out your goals and start creating a strategy There's a ton of tools in the fundraising toolkit for you to explore But a big thing is going to be promoting and promoting your campaign So something about the saying you have to cast your line lots of times to catch a fish That's the same kind of idea here. You are going to want to let people know as soon as you're registered that you're involved with give education You know share it on your social media send out an email a save the date type of thing And just keep letting them know keep putting the date in their head So maybe send out a mail or if you if you think you can do that And then you'll just start inviting supporters. So to be successful, you're gonna definitely, you know need some support from your community Whether that's creating peer-to-peer fundraisers Maybe your school board maybe some parent teacher kind of whatever your involvement whatever whoever is helping you You know try to get them to create some peer-to-peer fundraisers because that's going to extend the net that you have access to So there that work is going to reach even further to help you raise money for your school or foundation So like I said registration super easy. You're going to go to the education site You'll see if you're not logged in it'll say join us at your registration. You'll click register It'll prompt you to log in or create an account if you're brand new Once you do that you can come to it'll redirect you to the form where you can then find your organization I was logged in obviously you can see that I was mighty cause foundation You'll click next and then you can kind of just go through a couple questions And then you'll be pretty much registered and ready to go Once you're registered as well you can go in and you can make adjustments To your page you can add or remove additional administrators Just something to note if you are brand new if you have not become an admin of your page There is it's usually a really quick turnaround, but mighty cause support staff We always look through and we make sure anyone who is registering to Kind of have control over an organization page or be an admin. We always make sure that they are Supposed to be it because there's a lot of you know sensitive donor information that they have access to So just an out on that if you log in if you register and you're not seeing your organization in the drop-down menu under your login It's likely because you haven't been approved, but like I said, it's usually a quick turnaround So if you have questions, you can always reach out to support and the deadline to register is February 15 Alrighty, so I am going to Stop screen share real quick Yeah, I'm going to switch over to Adjust my audio real quick as I hear Is this We had a request in the chat for you to speak up just a little bit if that's okay. Yeah, is this better am I louder now? Yeah, that's no Okay, good. Sometimes I'm like am I shouting or am I not? Okay, so let's see I'm gonna switch over to the actual website real quick and give me one second All right, so are you all able to see this? I believe you are yeah, awesome. Thank you. We do see it. Yes, that's correct. Yeah, the organization page So this is kind of our demo site and I'm gonna kind of do like a brief overview Get a cup of coffee it may be a tea you're gonna hear my voice for a quite a bit longer Basically, so once you're logged into the give education website You'll log in you'll click here and there will be a drop-down menu And it'll show the organization that you've been approved as in the administrator for So you'll click that page. It'll bring you to your dashboard kind of overview If you I always like to mention if you forget your login and you can't remember how to log in It's totally fine. You can reach out to our support team And we can help you remember which Kind of emails are attached to it. Of course, we won't give you any sensitive kind of login information and we won't log in for you But sometimes, you know different organizations have maybe an old admin or an old kind of Email address attached to it that they either want removed. So we're happy to help you with that But basically you'll click the name of your organization and it brings you to your page You automatically land in this beautiful overview section, which is actually right here And this since it's a demo site, you're going to see this kind of tutorial pop up multiple times But this is your overview It shows you just a bunch of you know different metrics that you can Choose you can kind of customize this whole thing When you are registered for a give education, you'll see this little section that says your organization is registered for a give education So you know that you're good to go If you are not registered, but maybe previously participated It'll also remind you it'll say Registration is open for give education. So just know that even if you have previously participated You're still going to need to register this year to participate in the event Um, so a little bit about this dashboard. This is going to be your home um Everything you need is on this page. So this dashboard over here the side menu. It's going to have your Uh organization page, which we're going to go through a little bit more end up Um, it's going to have, you know, all the fundraising tools and you peer-to-peer campaigns your matching grants you can set up widgets Fundraiser templates which are going to be helpful for you if you are trying to make things easy for peer-to-peer fundraisers From here, you also have just a ton of different reporting available to you. You can see all your donations Any offline donations, maybe you've received that you want to log just for your own kind of reference Retention is going to be big if you have previously participated and give education as well You can see who has previously participated donated to your campaign in another year And maybe they haven't donated again this year. So you'll want to create a, you know, an outreach strategy for those individuals Um, and then of course disbursements. You can see the checks. You are the eft kind of stuff that is going out to you um Your checkout flow is going to be easily accessible here. You can update your donation form your thank you page And the receipt that the donors are Seeing when they get their receipt from, uh, many cuts Um, and then uh, we also have just a bunch of settings that you can kind of look through Your general settings your organization info the disbursement settings where you need the money to go Whether you're going to get eft or a check Um, of course, I also mentioned you can update any admins on your account So if you need to you can remove old admins that might be out of date Um, or you can if you have access to it and you have maybe a new person who's taking charge of your campaign this year You can add them here as well. Uh, but we're going to go through this pretty much in its entirety Um starting with our organization page So the organization page is the face of your organization for this event Um, you since I'm logged in you can see what like an administrator can see But if you were to hide everything on the left and toggle off edit mode Um, you would see basically this is what like the actual kind of visitors to your page the donors Your champions coming to your page to support you would see so you can toggle on and often see what's accessible for editing Which is a lot of stuff. So, um, very exciting Something that we really pride ourselves on is just all the customization that you have available to you Um, but it's also super easy Uh, and of course, I mean we always talk about how different organizations have different kind of Capacity levels as far as how much time you have to give to a campaign And how many people are on your team supporting you? So maybe it's just you and all you have time for is your logo your banner And you're about let's totally fine. It's it's super easy to do We also have a nice suggested to-do list. You can see there's a red dot because not all items have been completed But these are um, you would see kind of recommended Like five different recommended things to do to help you have a successful campaign So if you come here and you're like, oh my god, I don't know where to start You can go to your to-do list and kind of start working through the suggestions Um, so super easy right off the bat logo simple. It's a one-to-one. You'll just upload your image Um, it's it's pretty much what you have on either on your like actual website or maybe on social media Uh follows kind of the same one-to-one square. You can uh get it uploaded and then of course your background banner image um Whatever picture you want, uh, is great. We always recommend something that's you know, a nice horizontal Crappable photo and has little to no text just because this is going to be your attention grabbing kind of section Um, so something to think about, uh, you can kind of see how it works. Um, we also have A gallery of images that you can choose from if you're short on time or maybe you just can't find something That's going to look good. Uh, we have all sorts of ones that you can choose from From here, you can also choose a color overlay if you want to kind of like make things different colors Uh, maybe you have a brand color that really works with you. This page is all about kind of Creating your image so it reflects your actual, you know brand of your organization Or your foundation From here, you can also select a color for your buttons Um, very exciting because it just allows you a lot of you know To create a little bit more of a personal personality, I guess for your page Um, and like I said staying in line with your brand colors Um, from here, you can change the name of your organization. Uh, if you are going if you go by something else That's totally fine. You can update it here. Um Donate of course is going to be where people come to make an actual donation Fundraise is where they're going to come to fundraise for you So that means making peer-to-peer kind of pages and stuff like that Um, share this organization. This is going to be your social sharing section Um, some you know, if you want someone to share your page, this is the link that they'll click Uh, you can toggle on and off your fundraise button. So if you do want to say hide your fundraise button, you can do that Um, if I can jump in just for a second We are actually somebody who has the fundraise button turned off just because um We like the the ability to and you can you can control who sets up a page On your behalf to fundraise, but we feel like for us keep it simple And just have this main donation page where people can go and see the thermometer of how many people have given and donated Yeah, totally up to you one of the I mean, it's a nice perk of like hiding it. Um, or maybe you know On the day of the event you just want the donate button to be the only thing people are seeing so you can always toggle it off Um, all right. So then we have our thermometer and our metrics like josh was saying this is a very exciting piece of data Uh, so you can um hide the section You can You can edit your goal, which is really nice. So maybe you have you know $10,000 or maybe you reach your goal. Um, you know two days before the event starts Like that's awesome and totally great. You can always update it, you know make it 40 000 or whatever, you know suits you Um, you also can when you do turn this on you're going to want to remember to start your calculation um on a specific date because by default it's just going to show Um pretty much everything so if you were participating last year Maybe you need to go in um and start calculating at the start of early giving this year So if these numbers aren't reflecting properly, this is the first place you're going to want to go to check Um, are you showing offline donations? Maybe you don't want to show offline and donations Um, totally up to you, but then definitely check out the date Um, moving down the page. This is your about section. This is going to be a key component Of just trying to solicit donations. This is where you're going to tell your story. So we have you know this type of nice editing For wallet bar as we call it But you can Design it to your heart's content. There's just a lot of capability here. We've seen some really nice Pages that people have built out. You can add photos. You can add video links The videos do have to be uploaded first to youtube or vimeo, but then you can paste the video url and it'll embed it right here Um, just a bunch of rich kind of editing capabilities uh, and then New and very exciting as a custom tab that everyone has access to So if you want to maybe have this be all about your school your foundation and then your custom back tab can be about your campaign Um, or maybe you know dig deeper into like what the actual funds are going to this year Um, so that's open and available to you Um, as you scroll down, we have just some more sections that you can fill out You can add a media gallery So you can add media if you want to add photos you can also connect to a gallery So if you have an active instagram, maybe you're really active on facebook You can kind of have those posts Those pictures and stuff showing up to keep it engaging on here And then at the very bottom you have your organization data section So you can you know, you see these little pencil icons you can update maybe make sure that your email is correct Your website your phone number any kind of contacts Um, and all that good stuff. You can also add a section of featured campaigns um And supporting campaigns. So say your goal is here, you know, is to really push for peer-to-peer fundraising Um, you can highlight some of those or those campaign pages Which is exciting and you know people feel seen and that's really important To let them know like you're seeing all the hard work that they're doing for you And it just kind of adds another level of just Like connection with people who care about your cause Um, all right, so I'm going to kind of shift over one thing I do want to mention if you uh want to share your organization page You're just going to copy and paste this url link instead of it saying your giving day Of course, it's going to say give education um But that's the actual link that you would share if you want to direct someone to the page itself And then of course if you click Donate this is your donation page So if you ever want to include a link directly to the donate page like in an e-newsletter or something You would just copy and paste the url at the top of this donate page Um, all right, so back to this tutorial mode, uh, all right, so we're kind of kind of walk through The I'm gonna since we kind of left off on how talking a little bit about social media I'm going to go over to the settings And we'll go to general settings so you can find your social media Customization section so Basically this I mean take a look around all of this when you have time It's just very helpful But your general settings is going to have just a bunch of information for you You can change your custom url So if you're brand new and your url at the top says something that it looks funky and you're like Will we go by this you can edit it and save it here Um, you can have alternate search names. So if you go buy an abbreviation Um, I don't know whatever y2k, whatever you want, whatever you go by Um, you can add that here so people can search you and find you Um different tags. This is your social sharing setting So if someone shares your organization page, you can add your logo. You can add a title Um, you can make sure you know the dates are current So if you were like, hey, we're participating in give education 2022 you're going to want to obviously say 2023 Can add social hashtags Um, and all of that Um, other items in the settings you can look at your organization info. So this is the address that's on file Um, your website your contact info your email Um, the legal name is the the name that the irs has on file Uh, so the illegal mailing address is also the address that the irs has on file So if you ever need to change that you can reach out to support um Other items disbursement settings is going to or say this is a demo account So it doesn't have any disbursements. This is where you would go to find all of your disbursement settings And to find out the specifics for what was included in each of the disbursements And then like I said, this is where you can go to also add your admins or anybody else who is needs access to the page um, and and It's just an easy step if you already have an admin. It's way easier to add someone You just add their first name last name And you can approve them right away versus having them request access and then go through the mighty cause side of it So that's one thing to keep in mind as well Um, we're going to move into fundraising tools um so Actually, I'm going to bounce over to Check out since this is something that is probably higher priority Um, so basically I would say the steps for completion go to your organization page fill in all of this front-facing information Make sure your social shareings are updated because that's going to be a big thing you're doing Um, and then head to the checkout And you're going to want to customize these sections. So Basically, you'll start with your donation form There's a bunch of kind of capability here. It's very exciting just like the kind of about page But you can toggle on and off edit mode and see what's editable and not editable You can copy your direct donate link like I was showing you if you want to include it in any emails for people to directly click for call to action um, but each of these areas this is very exciting because You can kind of list out suggested donations for gifts And what each of those gift amounts do so obviously even if you're probably not having dog food But whatever, you know, $50 or $100 does for your organization Attach the value and what it does This is going to be really key for donors who maybe haven't decided how much to give Don't know what amounts are required to do what they want to support your organization But they're not completely sure like how much is needed to do certain things Um, so we always recommend, you know between four and six Kind of suggested donation amounts. So it's not too overwhelming for donors Um, but it gives them a good idea of like what it takes to do something So they can select one of these or they can just type in an amount So if they're like, you know, I want to be able to transport two rescue dogs I'm going to give $200 they can do that Um, from here, you can also add like different sections Um, obviously there's a bunch of questions here, but you can kind of see the whole checkout flow And you are also able to add one additional question to your checkout form So whatever, you know information you feel like you need to collect mighty calls already collects donor addresses um, so if you And their emails so if you need to, you know, if you're an organization that likes to call donors Maybe you want to add a question. What is your phone number? Or maybe you have a newsletter and you would like to know if you know by making their gift Would they also like to sign up for a newsletter? Um, so you can add a question like that There's just a lot of kind of flexibility in here and a lot of opportunity to make it very custom to your organization Um, from your checkout section, you can also edit your thank you page Your thank you page is what is going to pop up after a donor makes a gift to your organization So this is also a great place to add photos make it, you know, very personalized for you Um, of course, you know the, uh, thank you and then letting them know they're appreciated You can even add like a call to action Maybe you want them to direct them to your instagram or direct them to a newsletter or a blog whatever you think that would be good Um, but definitely fill this out because they're going to see it after they make their gift um And then their donation receipt, um, mighty cause automatically is sending receipts Um, so it'll say, you know, give education. They give a donation to give education Your support, you know, is wonderful and appreciated. Here's your receipt and below it It'll say who they gave to it'll have your organization information Um, but they'll also get to see a little tiny message from you So I recommend definitely taking a second and just, you know, writing a couple lines of thank you again It doesn't hurt to just continue thanking, um, your supporters. It'll keep them coming back Um, let's see What else do we have? I don't think there's any questions yet So I'm just gonna keep going attend to talk quickly. So I'm gonna take a drink of tea Um, all righty. So we went over the thank you page the donation receipts. Um, I'm gonna touch on your reports Uh, of course, this is where you can find all of your donor information data So if you participated last year, you're gonna have access to all of those gifts If you this is your first year participating This is where you're gonna find all of the donation information and the ability to download a complete donation report You can filter your report You can filter by campaign types by giving events and then you can choose It'll say give education day 2022 or give education day 2023 Um, automatically it's going to default to the last 30 days So you can select a custom date range. Maybe you just want to see the month or the year of the date you can do that Um, so you'll have access to all of this. I'm gonna say all so you can kind of see Uh, oh right demo account. No You could download it Uh, and when you download it, you'll see any additional questions Like maybe you asked about that phone number on the checkout You'll be able to see a column that has that question so that you can start making your thank you calls Um, you can also add offline gifts here So say you receive the check and you want to log it just through your personal kind of tally on how long you're doing Um, you can add that here as well. It's super simple to ask a couple questions and this is all just for reporting purposes Um, so that's all just kind of internal tracking Um, let's see what else is here. Uh retention report is going to be really, uh kind of a key thing to work into your Campaign strategy so you can select the event last year or maybe the year before And you can pull the data for the donors and then it also lets you know how many donors were retained So this in this case, you know, there was 11 donors six of them gave again You're going to want to then download that data and try and have a kind of a Communication plan in place to try to recapture those donors who maybe gave last year but haven't given this year So at some point during the 24 hours Give education day pull up your retention report take a look Uh, and then send out an email to those those supporters Um, and then of course your disbursements like I was showing you you have access to all that at the end of the event Um, I believe this is everything that I really wanted to show Uh, but if there's any questions, I'm going to switch it back over to the slide deck real quick Um, Carrie, can you think of anything on here that you wanted to see or maybe that I didn't touch on? Absolutely One of the things that I always had wondered about prior to participating in a give A giving day and perhaps josh can speak to this is I know we have advanced giving That starts in february and then we have march 1st Josh, can you offer some best practices that central high school has seen like do I promote? the the advanced giving Or do we just build anticipation? Can you kind of give us your suggestions on what works and and what you've seen? Yeah, so I'd say it's definitely a mixture of both But the majority of our gifts do usually come on the day of the event So you're briefly touched on it, but there is a way to add offline gifts into the platform And we actually take advantage of that a lot because we have a lot of gifts that come in the mail You know a check or cash And what's great about that is that people can still participate Even if they maybe aren't tech savvy or have access to a computer on the day of the event and so, um That money is added in to our total And it's added to that thermometer on our organization page so Circle back I would say that we try to encourage people to donate Whenever they can But the majority of our gifts usually come maybe the night of or the night before or the day of the event Yeah Yeah, I would Kind of just yeah to piggyback Um, it's really important to just keep casting, you know your line So always always try to you know, let everyone know you're participating Um And let them know the earliest they can start giving so that you know it counts towards your campaign Um, and I mean some people like to just give as early as they can because it's on the top of their mind Uh, so just always encouraging them. And then of course, you know the excitement of the 24 hours is really important Um, so because that's what you're going to be doing, you know the bulk of your social media Um, like, you know the big public thank yous to donors if that's something that you've worked in like maybe you have a Canva template where you're like thanks to our donor if they want to be recognized Um to kind of just build all of the excitement all at once and seeing that excitement is going to encourage other people to also give And if I could say something else to um If you can make this as simple or as complex as you want, I mean Just signing up is honestly the easiest best first step that you can take if you haven't already signed up for this Um And just kind of fill out your profile like the the parts that Sarah was mentioning But if you want to kind of take it to that next level if you have a website or if you have social media What's great is that you can start promoting this at any time and kind of get it on the calendar for people So that they're aware that this day of giving is coming up And so an example for us is that we try to ask Our teachers and our students and people that we impact for quotes about what the central high school foundation means to them And that's kind of the foundation of what we use when we Are promoting the giving day on our social media and website will kind of have a picture and a quote And it's just an impactful way to let people know that Their donation makes a difference The other thing too that we didn't really mention today Is that we again if you want to kind of go above and beyond if you will We always try to solicit a larger donor for a matching gift And the give education platform does have the ability to add in a matching gift information to your profile And what's really cool about that is that the donation is added in real or doubled in real time So if I gave a $10 donation on that thermometer on your page, it will add $20 to it So again, it's just it's a fun social way to encourage small donations to come in Um But there's different levels to this is what i'm getting at and the best thing you can do is just to sign up and get started If you haven't already Yeah, that's a very good point. Um, I didn't touch too much on all of the fundraising kind of tools that we have available We'll cover more of that in the second webinar but we have just a bunch of Uh, like different ways like dush was saying just to kind of elevate your campaign Uh, I don't want to overwhelm anyone with with this first type of introduction But there's just so much good strategy behind using matching grants. That's a good point Um resources and supports Um, so just so you all have kind of, you know, the tools I'm sure you've seen the fundraising toolkit, but this is on the give education site under resources drop down menu You'll find the fundraising toolkit and it has all of you You know a quick snapshot of your key important dates It's where a lot of you've probably registered for the webinar You can also register all about our strategy webinar Which we'll talk more in depth about matching grants and just different strategies and communication strategies to work with your supporters It also earlier we were talking about how it has just a ton of like tips and tutorials and support links We have six steps for fundraising success to kind of make it easy for you You can kind of start working through your list And again, depending on your kind of capacity level, maybe you don't have time to do Matching grants, but maybe you want to focus on peer-to-peer fundraising So we have all different guides for you based on what you are able to do this year Um, and then of course sign up for the second webinar. It's happening February 1st. That is also in the toolkit Um, and if you just need, you know a bit more information, maybe you are interested in participating and give education Uh, but you just you know want to read more about it. Check out the FAQs. It's filled with you know donor facts An organization kind of facts as well And then last but not least we have our support for give education day. So alumni nations of mighty cause. We're both here for you Um, to help you kind of get you know started on campaign and get through it We have all sorts of suggestions for you. We have a full support library We have also I took a screenshot of this resource center. It's filled with blog posts We have a bunch of ebooks that you can download Pre-recorded kind of on-demand webinars So if there's something it's like specifically you want to really focus or dive deeper on I know we have a webinar. That's like all about matching grants Um, so you can check those out as well And then of course our support team a support at mighty cause.com is available to you when they do Friday 9 to 5 eastern Um, and of course you can call it as well So I think that's everything that I have Um, if anyone has questions you can hit that q&a Um, or if there's any kind of final thoughts for this webinar Carrie and josh you're welcome to take it away Sure, I would just say that, um One of the cool things that I've encouraged you to do that anybody can do really Even though every organization is separate and has their own causes that they're raising money for Um, you have the ability to go see what other organizations are putting on their profile and so Just kind of go check out and see what other people are doing. Um, you know, there's a power and seeing what others are doing and how they're successful and You know, everybody can champion their own cause in their own way But there's a lot of really great resources out there for you to get good ideas about what you can bring to your page Yeah, that's a really good suggestion. Actually, um a cheat sheet for recommended dimensions for images. Um The logo in the banner, uh, we were are built for desktop and mobile so we don't have like like, um Exact dimensions, but they work in ratios. So it's like a one-to-one ratio and I think the banner is like three to one So it'll it'll resize based on screen size. So I would just yeah work In a ratio. So if you can't buy is a free resource So if you haven't used cam before you can just create an account And you can type in like the ratio that you want to work with and they'll create like a template for you And then you can start building that out or you can drop in an image and that'll resize it for you any other questions Um, I don't see them. So, uh, again, thank you all for you know spending a little bit of your afternoon with us We really appreciate it. We're really excited to give education day this year Um, I'm really looking forward to the next webinar where we're going to just really kind of dig deeper on just different strategy And I know josh, you've been doing this for a while. You'll have a lot of Uh, good, you know feedback and knowledge to share with everyone So make sure you sign up for that and we'll see you all done Hey, thanks everyone. Bye
