Top 5 Articles on How to Improve Your Nonprofit’s Peer-to-Peer Fundraising
The potential for peer-to-peer fundraising is big. According to the 2022 Peer-to-Peer Top 30 report from Peer to Peer Professional Forum, revenue grew nearly 19% among the top 30 U.S. peer-to-peer fundraising programs in 2022. Collective revenue from these programs was more than $1 billion.
Even if your nonprofit doesn’t have one of the top 30 programs, peer-to-peer fundraising can still be a powerful part of your fundraising program. It helps you extend your fundraising reach by asking supporters (volunteer fundraisers) to help raise funds on your nonprofit’s behalf.
Hosting peer-to-peer fundraising events and/or campaigns can do even more for your nonprofit than raise funds. It can also help you to get the word out about your nonprofit’s mission, acquire new donors, and deepen relationships with your existing supporters.
So, how can you improve your nonprofit’s peer-to-peer fundraising efforts and boost your results? We have some tips for you.
