We all know how important online donations are for our organizations. But, do you really know if your organization is positioned to reap the benefits?
I suggest you create a Donor for a Day program. First, conduct an internal audit. Next, pull together a volunteer committee to review your website and online donation program. Hold a virtual brainstorming session to review the findings and garner suggestions. Don’t forget to empower your volunteers and thank them for their suggestions.

We all know how important online donations are for our organizations. But, do you really know
if your organization is positioned to reap the benefits?

checklist to use as a guide with clients.

2. Create a Donor for a Day Program
1. Invite a cross-section of members and volunteers to become Donors for a Day.
2. Use participation in the program to inspire and empower volunteer leadership and
donors.
3. Task the committee members with ‘trying out’ your on-line donation program.
4. Provide a checklist. (see below)
5. Hold a virtual brainstorming meeting to collect impressions & suggestions.
6. If a virtual meeting is not practical, survey the participants.
7. Use the findings to evaluate your current program & implement changes where
necessary to garner the most from your online donation program.
8. Don’t forget to engage your donors for a day beyond the technology to discuss person
to person communications.
9. Write up the results and share with your Volunteer for a Day participants as well as
senior management.
10. Don’t forget to thank your participants – and then thank them again!
