4 Ways to Fundraise with SignUpGenius Giving

Posted by Ashley Kaufman

Fundraising isn’t just about raising money. It’s about bringing people together, spreading hope, and making a real impact.

At SignUpGenius, we believe every cause deserves an easy way to rally support. That’s why we created SignUpGenius Giving, making fundraising seamless by integrating donations directly into your sign ups.

Let’s dive into four ways SignUpGenius Giving can help turn your fundraising efforts into a community-powered success story.

1. Supporting families in times of need

When a family is facing a tough time, whether it’s a medical crisis or the aftermath of a natural disaster, every bit of support matters.

With SignUpGenius Giving, you can quickly set up a donation campaign that highlights their specific needs and makes it simple for people to give.

If you’re hosting a charity event like a bake sale or community gathering, you can add a donation option directly to your sign up. This makes it easier for supporters to contribute, whether they’re attending or just want to help.

Plus, with built-in social sharing tools, you can spread the word fast via email and social media, ensuring the campaign reaches as many people as possible. And thanks to real-time donation tracking, your community can watch the impact grow—building trust and motivation to keep giving.

Want to take it a step further? Offer multiple giving levels so donors can choose an amount that fits their budget. Even small contributions add up quickly when a whole community comes together.

2. Enhancing school fundraising efforts

Schools are full of amazing ideas to enrich learning but often face a common problem: funding. Whether you need money for new classroom tech, playground upgrades, or library renovations, SignUpGenius Giving makes it easy to bring parents, teachers, and local businesses on board.

By setting up a fundraising page, you can clearly outline your goals and rally support. Want to make it even more effective? Integrate donations into your school events, like a talent show, carnival, or PTA meeting, so people can donate while signing up to help.

To keep donors engaged, share progress updates along the way. Posting photos, videos, or quick messages about how donations are making a difference can inspire even more people to give. A simple “thanks to our amazing supporters, we’re halfway to our goal!” can go a long way in keeping momentum strong.

With SignUpGenius Giving, you get fundraising made simple: less hassle, more impact.

3. Investing in community projects

Great things happen when communities come together. Whether you’re revitalizing a park, launching a community garden, or funding a neighborhood project, SignUpGenius Giving makes it easy to get everyone involved.

With a donation campaign, you can share your vision, break down costs, and show exactly how contributions will make a difference.

And when you add a giving option to your event sign ups, it creates a one-stop shop for people to support your cause, whether they’re donating, volunteering, or both.

4. Empowering nonprofits to do more

Nonprofits are at the heart of so many important causes, and SignUpGenius Giving is built to help them raise more and do more.

With a dedicated campaign page, nonprofits can share their mission, showcase specific funding needs, and connect with donors in a meaningful way.

Pairing donations with event sign ups, like for charity galas, community cleanups, or awareness events, creates a seamless experience for supporters. They can volunteer and donate all in one place, increasing engagement and simplifying tracking for your team. Plus, real-time donation updates help celebrate milestones and recognize supporters.

To maximize your reach, consider teaming up with influencers or community leaders who can help spread the word. A simple video message or social media shout-out from a recognizable face can encourage even more donations.
