Prepare early.<\/h2>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Because there are many different parties involved in a GivingTuesday campaign\u2014your organization, your donors, a matching fund partner, your cause and future donors\u2014it\u2019s important to get as much of a head start as possible to make sure everything goes smoothly.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2>2. Set clear goals.<\/h2>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Having clear fundraising goals is important, but that\u2019s not the only kind of goal you should have for GivingTuesday. This day is about more than just donations. It\u2019s about getting your community involved and being part of a global movement for generosity.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Goals to consider:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>What do you hope to accomplish with the money you raise?<\/li><li>Other than raising money, what else do you want to achieve? Common examples are increasing awareness for your cause or organization, onboarding new volunteers, adding more long-term donors, or getting support from brand new donors.<\/li><\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2>3. Tell a story.<\/h2>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Abstract ideas don\u2019t get people excited about a movement, but stories do. To drum up more enthusiasm for your mission, tie it to a specific story. For example, you could share a personal story of a person (or animal or community) your organizations has helped.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Organize your story using the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/learn\/conservation-storytelling-tips\/\">milestones of storytelling<\/a>: Introduce a character, explain their problem, present the solution (your organization!) and reveal the happily ever after. If you haven\u2019t already, you can download the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/learn\/nonprofit-storytelling-best-practices-list\/\">Storytelling Checklist for nonprofits<\/a> to shape your story.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2>4. Promote your GivingTuesday campaign.<\/h2>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Get the word out about your GivingTuesday goal and the impact it will have for your cause. Here are some key ways to promote your campaign:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Launch a social media campaign using the GivingTuesday hashtag.<\/li><li>Send an email drip campaign to your donor and community list for GivingTuesday.<\/li><li>Pitch the local press with your story and GivingTuesday goals using our <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1fQCPiRDS2UuX8qu7rph8DGTZ-UE1kbwYkCMnec5zwtQ\/edit\">sample press release<\/a>.<\/li><\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h1>GivingTuesday promotional timeline example<\/h1>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>GivingTuesday has shared a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.givingtuesday.org\/givingtuesday-toolkit-for-nonprofits\/#:~:text=Sample%20GivingTuesday%20Campaign%20Timeline\">promotional timeline example<\/a> that nonprofits can use to launch their GivingTuesday campaigns.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The promotional timeline goes beyond email and social media. Highlights of the full timeline for 2023 include:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Week of October 9: Set goals, determine a target audience, and pick your internal GivingTuesday team.<\/li><li>Week of October 23: A month for collaboration. Identify potential partners (corporate\/nonprofit) and start pitching them. Research potential city\/state campaigns your organization can be a part of. Confirm your campaign plan and goal. Draft and approve internal timelines, creative assets, communications plans, and your evaluation stratetgy. Schedule weekly social media posts, strategize targeted emails for different types of people on your list.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Week of November 6: Announce to your community, pitch the local press, send a \u201csave the date\u201d to major supporters and talk to your local government officials about proclaiming GivingTuesday.<\/li><li>Week of November 20: Double your social media frequency, email reminders to your community, and continue pitching the press.<\/li><li>November 27: Send a &#8220;1 day to go&#8221; reminder on email and social.

Your email strategy can take on different forms, but we suggest a minimum of four core GivingTuesday email examples to send to your list.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2>Announcement email<\/h2>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The announcement email should:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Explain the purpose of GivingTuesday and when it occurs.<\/li><li>Explain how your community can participate.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Highlight your mission.<\/li><li>Offer a soft call to action to follow your organization on social media.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Here\u2019s an example that you\u2019re welcome to customize for your own organization.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>Hi [recipient\u2019s name],<\/em><br><\/p><p><em>[Organization name] has some big news: This year we\u2019re participating in GivingTuesday!&nbsp;<\/em><br><\/p><p><em>GivingTuesday is a global day of giving that takes place November 28 this year.

Social media is an important part of any nonprofit\u2019s GivingTuesday campaign. Not only does social media increase awareness for your mission, it also allows your donors and community to feel like they\u2019re a part of something bigger even if they can\u2019t be in a physical space together.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Tips for GivingTuesday social media campaigns:&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Use the hashtag #GivingTuesday and your own GivingTuesday hashtag (for example, <a href=\"https:\/\/dressforsuccess.org\/news\/dress-for-success-turns-givingtuesday-into-givingshoesday\/\">#GivingShoesDay<\/a> by Dress for Success or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/explore\/tags\/moveamillion\/?hl=en\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">#MoveAMillion<\/a> by GlobalGiving.)&nbsp;<\/li><li>Encourage participation on all major platforms, like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.<\/li><li>Use multimedia posts including special GivingTuesday images and videos.<\/li><li>Link to your GivingTuesday landing page.<\/li><\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2>Twitter sample GivingTuesday copy<\/h2>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Best practices: Keep it brief (within 280 characters), include a link, include images or a video and use relevant hashtags.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>You\u2019re invited to join millions in a national day of giving on Nov. 28 for GivingTuesday!
