Campaigns Guide

A campaign can be thought of as a "container" for a fundraising initiative - like a folder that groups your forms, sites, and all resources.

Campaign Structure

Each campaign can contain multiple fundraising components:

Campaign (e.g., "Annual Fund 2025")
├── Forms - Donation, event ticketing, registration, etc.
├── Sites - General fundraising, event sites, peer-to-peer sites, etc.
└── Resources - Donations, pledges, ticket orders, auction items, etc.

Creating a Campaign

1. Click Create a Campaign from the campaigns list
2. Choose your fundraising type(s):
   • Crowdfunding - Fundraising sites with goals and progress
   • Peer-to-Peer - Enable supporters to fundraise for you
   • Donation Forms - Streamlined giving forms
   • Ticketing - Event ticket sales
3. Configure your campaign settings

Campaign Settings

Access settings by clicking the gear icon on any campaign:

• Sites & Forms - Your fundraising components
• Payment Processing - Stripe configuration
• Notifications - Email settings
• Administration - Archive, clone, or delete

When to Create a New Campaign

Good candidates for separate campaigns:

• Annual fund drives (one per year)
• Special events (galas, walks, auctions)
• Capital campaigns
• Emergency appeals
• Peer-to-peer fundraising events

Consider combining when:

• Activities share the same goal
• You want unified reporting
• The initiatives are closely related
