organizations online to increase charitable giving. Social fundraising (the Obama model of fundraising), also called peer to peer fundraising or person to person fundraising, is

the intersection of online fundraising with social networking.

Social Media Fund raising canhelp accelerate and simplify these tasks.

Insights Recommendations

The future of fundraising is stop interrupting what people are interested in and to become what people are interested in.

Individual donor funding has become over reliant mass market and direct response techniques -

Peer-to-Peer Fund raisinga new set of online Web based tools makes

this approach not just possible but imperative for any organization to grow.

The younger supporter segment displays a greater willingness to tell others- They are the ones using social media on a daily basis....

Most suited for non-profits as they seek to take the costs out of fund raising activities and increase the reach of the

organization to new members and donors.
