Hier erfahren Sie, wie Sie Kreativität in das Fundraising für Community-Organizing-Projekte einfließen lassen können.

Incremental thinking won't get you far; it's time to go big or go home. Unleash audacious creativity to revolutionize your fundraising approach. Host immersive community experiences that create buzz and excitement. Launch unconventional campaigns like scavenger hunts or pop-up events. Integrate storytelling into your events, especially the immersive experiential events, to connect emotionally with your audience. Thinking big isn't just about large-scale ideas; it's about making a memorable impact that compels people to contribute.

One thing I found helpful is to have a participation level where everyone can be apart of the team philanthropic efforts. Maintain the high levels of giving and have everyone do an all in on the $5 level. It’s a Gve me $5 campaign using hands together

Another way to really drive home storytelling is to Develop interactive experiences or workshops that educate donors about your initiatives and community issues. Offer hands-on activities or virtual tours to deepen their understanding and connection to your cause. This is something I got to explore my creating an interactive flyer and a regular one, of course the one that visualized the experiences of the people we were trying to help achieved greater numbers.

Incentives aren't just perks; they're strategic tools to drive higher engagement and donations. Use them wisely to create excitement and loyalty. Offer exclusive behind-the-scenes experiences or meet-and-greets with key figures. Develop a tiered reward system that values every contribution but encourages larger donations. Personalize rewards to align with donor interests and values. Strategic rewards are about more than thanks; they're about creating a value exchange that motivates sustained support.

The best ideas often come from the edges. Foster a culture of continuous innovation and openness to unconventional approaches. Create innovation labs or think tanks within your community. Encourage diverse voices and perspectives to contribute ideas. Implement pilot programs to test and refine creative fundraising concepts. Continuous innovation isn't just about staying ahead; it's about discovering groundbreaking methods that set you apart.

Brené Brown's advice on creativity helps me. 1) Get deliberate. Carve out time right now for getting creative. That doesn’t just have to be on the creativity of community engagement, but more for you. The more you are creative in your own life, the more that will show in your community organising. 2) Get Inspired – Where can you look for creative inspiration? What keywords can you search? Are there local artists, creatives, musicians, writers etc. that you would like to meet? Is there an online group of people you can interact with? Who can you share your ideas and projects with? 3) Get Going – Is there something you would like to learn more about? How can you expose your vulnerability and try something?
