Fundraising recap

– New, more efficient, digital routes have emerged

• Our current fundraising position:

A new way to fundraise…

• Technology now exists for donations to charity to be made by text message

• Text message donations have proven potential

– Spontaneous – no need to be near a collection tin or a PC

– 89% of 16-65 year olds have a mobile phone

– Bigger charities (e.g. Comic Relief) have raised millions via text already

• But take up has so far been limited to the biggest charities:

– Cost to set up & run

– Awareness

– A lack of time or understanding of how to set up

Text donations have huge potential

Our partnership

• JustTextGiving by Vodafone is bought to us free, thanks to an exciting partnership between Vodafone, The Vodafone Foundation, and JustGiving

• The Vodafone Foundation has already pioneered the use of text donation campaigns to support global disaster relief. Vodafone is now making text donations available to every UK charity for free - because they believe in investing in the communities that they operate in and using mobile technology for the benefit of all

Vodafone Foundation registered charity 1089625

• JustGiving created the UK's first online fundraising business. Over the past 11 years, JustGiving has changed the face of charitable giving in the UK, becoming the most used fundraising service. Charities have raised more through JustGiving than any other site, some £770m in all.

QuestionsIs this just for Vodafone customers? No. Every charity, fundraiser and donor in the UK, regardless of their mobile network, can use JustTextGiving by Vodafone.

Are there any hidden costs? No. There are no costs to set up or run and our charity gets every penny of donations made.

How do we get our donations paid? We can get donations paid by cheque on a quarterly basis or monthly by BACs if we register our bank account with JustGiving.

How is Gift Aid handled? Gift Aid lets us benefit from 25% more, where a donor declares Gift Aid via their mobile. All this is handled automatically for us and we’ll get Gift Aid paid to us with our donations.

What is a Vodafone Individual Code (VIC)? This is the 6 digit code that is individual to each charity (e.g. CANC11). It’s always 4 letters and 2 numbers. It lets Vodafone know which charity a donor is texting a donation to and it’s this code that we advertise to our donors.

What number do donors send the text to? The text message (containing the Vodafone Individual Code and the donation amount), is always sent to 70070.

How do we start fundraising using text? Just call to set up a free JustTextGiving account, (or simply login if we are already a JustGiving member). Then advertise our Vodafone Individual Code to supporters and watch our donations mount up!
