New: Team Fundraising on JustGiving






Fundraising can be a tough challenge for your supporters alone: enter JustGiving Team Pages. Your fundraisers can now join together and create teams on JustGiving, supporting each other in supporting you.

What is it?

Team pages bring together individual fundraising pages under one roof, allowing them to share a target or compete against each other in fundraising for an event, campaign or appeal your charity is running.

Each team gets a dedicated page where they can tell their collective story. The leader board shows who’s on the team and how much they’ve raised towards the team target, allowing for some competitive fundraising!

Benefits for Charities

Events – Create Team pages now around the biggest fundraising events of the year for your charity and grab a good team name before other charities do!

Groups – Encourage your supporters to join the appeal or fundraising group. This gives them a sense of how much support there is for your charity around the country, and how well they are all doing together.

Here’s an example

Branches – Many charities have regions, branches and groups based around the country. Teams are a perfect way of linking them together, showing supporters and employees how much support there is for the charity and cause.

Here’s an example

Ideas for Charities

Forming visible digital communities around your charity, event or appeal Giving people visibility of the overall support for your charity is made easy by one team page. Bringing fundraisers together onto one page builds a sense of community and even pride of being part of something bigger.

Competitive Fundraising The option of sorting fundraising pages on a team by how much they’ve raised allows you to encourage competitive fundraising – use this opportunity to create challenges or competitions for your fundraisers – who is your best online fundraiser? How do you want to thank them?

So what are you waiting for? Create a team, grab a URL and invite your supporters to join a visible digital fundraising community.

    Good idea! About 2 years ago I was so bored I came up with a list of 10 silly micro-challenges that I want to turn into a little fundraising event or game – could use a Team page for each participant! Any other cool ideas?

    We have always had a problem with particpants in events who want to set up a team page in the past, and its great to tell them they can now do that. A big thank you to the Justgiving team
