The sweetest thing about online fundraising is that you can support global causes and projects all over the world. One person can fundraise online for numerous projects, supporting numerous charity fundraising campaigns.
For instance, I just started two new projects on Crowdrise. One is supporting an animal shelter down the street from my house and the other is supporting a Charity: Water and their work in Honduras. These online fundraising pages are both on my profile page so they are super easy to get to and you can just click on them and donate.
In the past, a person was limited to the amount of fundraising projects they could take on and fundraising involved so much work. If you were raising the donations offline, you had to figure out how to not only get people to write checks, but also figure out how to get the money to the charity. Now, one person can be in as many fundraising communities as they want, supporting projects all over the place.
So, I just thought that that was a really cool and there are some really good ways to raise money online if you want to give back and support, but just don’t have the time to do it.
