DonorSee Partner Newsletter | July

A heartfelt hello from all of us here at DonorSee.

July has been an exciting month for us and as usual, we are inspired by how much joy our partners have spread around the world.

As people deal with inflation, lower stock prices, and a rise in the cost of living, maintaining relationships with your supporters is more important than ever. Engaging them and keeping them in the loop will result in more responsive support—now, and in the future. At DonorSee, we've been working around the clock to develop the tools you need to stay ahead.

Coming very soon, we'll be launching an optional package that will allow our partners to easily envelop DonorSee in their organization's branding. We're talking brand-specific emails, network exclusivity AND an effortless integration with your website!

This week, we also launched a spruced-up Android app and new mobile experience. It’s slick, intuitive, and just plain lovely. Our Apple-loving friends, don’t you worry - we're whipping up something special for you too soon...

???New Profile Pages

The new partner profiles are finished and will be released to the public next week!

The new design offers a much better user-experience for our partners and their supporters. The activity feed will allow organizations to build stronger relationships with donors, and the new subscription functionality will help convert more once-off donors to recurring supporters.

??DonorSee Android App

We have released an all-new version of the DonorSee Android app!?

We redesigned the user interface, enhanced project recommendations, added a ‘Discover’ section for donors to easily find projects and organizations, plus so much more.

iPhone users, don't worry, the new iOS app is in the pipeline and will be here soon.

??FUNDRAISING TIPS

Three quick tips to help you maximize social media engagement this month:

Storytelling?- Engage your donors with authentic, compelling stories that inspire them into action. Highlight the shared humanity between the donor and the person who needs support—where empathy grows, a desire to help is sure to follow.

Content formatting?- Posting content in the correct aspect ratio means the algorithm is more likely to boost it. Do you need help figuring out the right aspect ratio for your content? Email us at [email protected] so we can help!

Trending music?- Have you seen this small white arrow next to a song name on Instagram? Great! It means that song is trending. When choosing a song for your Instagram reel, use one that is trending—it will increase the reach of your video.

?? SAVE THE DATE

In June, we announced 'Humanity Day', a special day in honor of our Founder, Gret Glyer and the extraordinary vision he brought to life.?

Humanity Day will take place on DonorSee’s birthday - September, 26th. It will be a celebration of those who dream big and dare to take action.

We are planning some special marketing activities in the lead-up to and on the day to bring new and existing donors to the platform for a day of impact.

In the coming weeks, we will share more details on what we have planned and how you can make the most of this special day.?

COMMUNITY NEWS

The Delia Foundation: The Power of Asking for Help

When the Delia Foundation lost a major funder, they reached out to DonorSee for help launching a project to keep their learning center open.?

In five weeks, they’ve already raised over 60% of their goal and have gotten dozens of new donors. It all started with them asking for help and sharing the vision to keep the center open. The DonorSee team was able to help set up the project and wrote an email that had a massive impact.

This is what they had to say:

There aren't enough words to thank you for the beautiful email that was sent to the DonorSee community.?You captured the essence of our spirit at Delia's Learning Center [...] we were able to lead with "joy" while still explaining the risk and obstacles these children face.

The Delia Foundation have been busy promoting the project with their network and are even hosting a special ticketed event to raise awareness and funds.

When you share authentically, and ask for help from your community (and the DonorSee team), great things can happen!
