Featured Fundraiser, Libby!

Libby held her 4th fundraiser for Nomi Network in the fall of 2019 and raised over $2,000! Hear from her on what techniques she used and what insight she has for other fundraisers!

  • Don’t be afraid to blast out your campaign. I was surprised that people I didn’t know very well still donated to my fundraisers.
  • Reaching out individually to people makes a big impact. If you have the time, text or email people directly to encourage them to donate.
  • For a past fundraiser, I would post individual thank you messages on social media. I would include a photo of me and that person along with my favorite thing about the person. I think people really enjoyed that individual recognition. 
  • I felt like when I was closer to reaching my goal, people were more motivated to donate. Work with the Nomi Network staff to create your goal and adjust it as needed! 
  • Try to make it fun! One year my friends got into making donations under celebrity names. It is kind of silly, but it got more of my friends to give and made it more lighthearted. 
  • In doing more than one fundraiser for Nomi Network, I’ve found it can be difficult to motivate people to donate if they’ve already donated in the past. If people don’t want to give a contribution again, instead ask them if they will share about your fundraiser with their network, introducing new people to your campaign!
