5. Text Messaging Campaigns for Donations and Updates

Tools: Twilio, Zapier, Stripe

How It Works:

  • Using Twilio, non-profits can send text message campaigns to donors and supporters, encouraging donations or providing updates on urgent campaigns.
  • Integrating Twilio with Stripe allows donors to make quick contributions by simply replying to the text message or clicking a link.
  • Zapier can link this process to your CRM (e.g., Salesforce), automatically updating donor records whenever a contribution is made.

Example Growth Impact:

  • Instant Engagement: Text messaging offers a direct and immediate way to reach donors. For example, a well-timed message during a disaster relief campaign can prompt immediate donations from supporters.
  • Seamless Donations: With one-click payment options, donors are more likely to contribute since they don’t have to navigate through a complex process.
