CreateaFund: A great way for non-profits & charities to manage their online fundraising initiatives that includes the following features designed especially for medium-to-large sized non-profit organizations:

• - Support for multiple user accounts makes providing access to your team a breeze.
• - A built-in email marketing manager allows you to create and send your own email campaigns.
• - Tiered-pricing helps you find the right match to your team size, number of fundraising initiatives and operating budget.

GoFundMe: The best way for regular people to raise money online for the things they care about most. GoFundMe users are individuals who create a personal fundraising page to accept online donations for themselves or a friend. Many of these users are operating independently from any formal non-profit organizations and only require a single online donation page for their project or cause.

Hope that helps!

Note: If you’re currently a CreateaFund ‘Free’ user, have no fear, your account is here to stay!

The changes come about as part of our goal of providing users with the best way to raise money online. GoFundMe has been optimized to help everyday people do amazing things through online fundraising.

GoFundMe is currently in private beta – which is our fancy way of saying we’re not officially available to everyone just yet. You can request an account of your own by visiting GoFundMe now.

As always, your questions and feedback are welcome: Contact Us

Thanks!

While CreateaFund remains a terrific way to raise money online for non-profits and charities, GoFundMe was built especially to help individuals bring their fundraising ideas to life… online! GoFundMe makes it even easier for regular people to raise money online to do extraordinary things. Whether you’re helping a friend pay for medical bills, or providing a fun way to get wedding gift money, GoFundMe is the easiest way to raise money online.

Our new crowdfunding site is currently in private ‘Beta’, but you can request an account now if you’d like to raise money soon. We’ll post another update as soon as GoFundMe is publicly released.

Raise Money Online for any Fundraising Idea with GoFundMe!

Crowdfunding on Facebook

Good luck!

Just click on the ‘Share’ link and immediately post a Fund to your Facebook profile and into your friends’ news feeds. It’s a great way to broadcast your support without the fuss of having to email people directly.

Sharing your fundraising page on Facebook is also a great way to post frequent updates on your Fund’s progress.  Get more donors involved by including your Facebook friends in your quest to reach your fundraising goal. The more people that know about your Fund, the more likely you’ll collect enough money to make your fund a success.

Good luck!

Since we’ve been knee-deep in ‘technology’, we thought it would be nice to take a step back and share some recent funds with you. It warms our hearts to see friends raising money for one another by using CreateaFund to accept online donations. Some recent examples are below:

House for Jennifer: A team of caring employees are raising money for a co-worker’s down payment on a home.

Mason’s Mission: With a little help from his friends and family, Mason will head to South Africa to help children suffering from AIDS.

Abulay for Marc: After the lose of a loved one, friends came out in strength to offer support to Marc’s family.

CreateaFund continues to be used by people to collect money online for all sorts reasons. We would like to thank our users for all their support and feedback along the way. It’s our hope that more and more people will use CreateaFund to do more great things for one another.

If while reading this post and viewing our recent funds a certain idea or person came to mind, please click the ‘Facebook, Twitter, Email’ link below to share CreateaFund with a friend.
