Does Your Nonprofit Feature Workplace Giving as a “Way to Give” on its Website?
There are so many ways for individuals to support your nonprofit, the most obvious way being to click on the “Donate” button your nonprofit likely features as a big, brightly colored button on the top right corner of its website. But how easy (if at all) are you making it for individuals to learn how they can support you through workplace giving?
Not everyone is aware that workplace giving is an option, yet approximately $4 billion is generated through workplace giving campaigns each year, and individuals who donate through workplace giving are likely to donate up to five times more to a nonprofit than traditional one-time donors. So it’s important that you include workplace giving as a “way to give” on your website and educate constituents about the benefits of giving through company-sponsored employee giving programs.
