5 Ways To Raise Money For Your Company's CSR Initiatives


Having a website dedicated to your CSR fundraising event will increase the amount of funds your company can raise for a particular cause or organization. Every event, from a marathon to a gala, involves soliciting your network of friends, family, colleagues, suppliers, customer, shareholders, and more in order to raise the largest amount of money possible. No matter the type or size of your CSR event, here are some ways to raise a lot of money to achieve your fundraising goals:
• Online Donations
Accepting donations online makes giving and receiving fast and easy. It will allow your company to achieve their goal faster because it is more convenient for donors to donate online using a credit card. You can promote your fundraising campaign online by including a link to your website on social networking sites leading viewers directly to the donation page. Participants can fundraise by creating their own personal or team fundraising pages that they can share with their network.
• Obtain Sponsorships
Having particular sponsors support your cause can draw people to your event and reduce your expenses. The best way to start is by asking your family, friends, colleagues and other members of your network including customers, suppliers and shareholders. Sponsors do not necessarily need to be related to the cause or event. To reduce your costs, you should try and get specific services sponsored, and offer exposure in exchange for their contribution.
• Ad book
You can have different size ads for different prices and offer publicity in exchange for a paid ad. You can have an online Ad Book where you will promote your sponsors on pages of your website. You can link to their website and large sponsors can have more information about their business.
• Hold an Auction
You can choose to run a physical auction or an online auction to raise money for your CSR event. You can feature the items being auctioned off on your website for your guests to see and learn about prior to the event. Products and services for the auction can be submitted, and payments made, directly through your fundraising website. Online auctions have proven to be more successful.
• Sell Raffle Tickets
Raffles are great for any type of event or any number of participants or guests. You can sell tickets to the raffle online through your website quickly and easily and display information and pictures about the prizes. If you can get the prizes for your raffle donated, the only costs are the printing. The bigger the prize, the more you can charge. Raffles are great option because of their high profit margins.
