As the holiday season approaches, many supporters are busy with family gatherings, shopping trips and celebrations. That often means routines are interrupted, which can lead to fundraising slipping off the radar. Social media is a great way to keep a fundraising campaign top of mind, especially during the winter months.

FundScrip is a gift card fundraising program that turns everyday purchases into meaningful contributions. Supporters buy gift cards for the retailers they already shop with, and a percentage of every purchase goes directly toward the fundraising initiative.
Whether supporters are updating their wardrobe, sipping on pumpkin spice lattes, or taking in the vibrant fall foliage, there are countless ways to turn these seasonal activities into fundraising opportunities. As the leaves change and the air turns crisp, fall brings with it the perfect mix of cozy comforts and outdoor adventures.
Successful fundraising doesn’t happen by chance; it’s the result of careful planning, consistent outreach, and knowing what’s working (and what isn’t). Tracking the performance of fundraising initiatives allows organizers to make informed decisions that improve results over time.
