Online fundraising is a great way to raise money and obtain funds for various reasons. When your donors fundraise for you, they build credibility for your cause as well. GlobalGiving has given us this wonderful opportunity to bring our work into a global platform.
Whenever you're starting a new campaign or fundraiser, sometimes it can be hard to know exactly what you need to do or how to promote your campaign. Luckily, GlobalGiving offer ideas for fundraising. These ideas are available in several formats, including vlogs, webinars, videos, PDFs, lists, brochures and even ebooks. A professional team is also available at our beck and call for different projects to help guide us along the way. GlobalGiving also offer solid support via email, phone or contact forms on the website.
Trivandrum Don Bosco Veedu Society is participating in the March Accelerator 2017 with a project '#26349 - Clothes for 300 children at Don Bosco Trivandrum'. We rescue and rehabilitate at risk and orphaned children in Trivandrum city. Some of the bare necessities that a rescued child needs are a set of dress and chappals (sandals). It costs Rs. 1000 per child. According to our statistics, the Society has provided shelter to more than 300 children in the year 2015. It is our responsibility to be able to provide a roof to as many children who are in dire need of it. The lack of funds have become a restraint for us. With the help of this project and its contributions, the process can be facilitated in a more efficient manner.
At present, we have more than 55 unique donors, with donations tipping $2250 in the ongoing accelerator campaign. This is a landmark feat for us, as this is just our second project with Global Giving. Donations have been flowing in from different parts of the world such as, Europe, Middle East, America and so on.
On behalf of our organisation, we extend sincere thanks to all the generous donors who stood with us and found our cause worthy enough for their hard earned money. Martin Luther King said "We must become the change we wish to see in this world". Your donations have changed the life of children here in Trivandrum.
