  6. Crowdfunding Demographics Crowdfunding can help social enterprises and non-profits engage local enthusiastic community-minded younger donors, a demographic that many organizations have difficulty engaging. Target Demographics:

  7. OK, I’m Interested. What’s Next? • The first step is to identify a compelling project your organization has been hoping to support, and the appropriate “gifts” that can be given in exchange • Target project size for inaugural class of projects is $10,000 - $30,000 • “Gifts” can be almost anything: a T-shirt, an invitation to a donor party, or even something as simple as recognition in a newsletter • To engage users, we will need to create a compelling narrative and accompanying media (pictures, video, etc.) to convey the benefits of the project

  8. What Else Do I Need To Provide? To protect users and to build project credibility, campaigns also need some additional important information: • Biography/background of the Project Leader • Disclosure of organization ownership • Budget/plans for how the raised funds will be spent • Endorsement from your Leadership
