How Does Double the Donation Raise More Money for Our Organization?
Double the Donation helps organizations raise more money by addressing two main challenges in workplace giving:
-
Raising Awareness
-
Making the Process Easy
1. Raising Awareness
Many donors and volunteers are unaware that their employers offer workplace giving programs, or they don’t know how to submit these requests. Double the Donation bridges this awareness gap by:
-
Prompting donors and volunteers to check their eligibility during key moments (e.g., on donation, volunteer, and payroll giving pages).
-
Automating follow-up emails to remind eligible supporters to submit their requests.
-
Providing employer-specific guidelines and forms to make the process clear.
