Good Friday afternoon everyone, its time for the Fundraising-Champion Competition UPDATE. We’ve got ourselves a competition with two fundraising projects taking aim to crack the magic 70 donor hurdle!

This is the current result:
Since starting the feature Fundraising Events 54 people (last week: 49) started a Fundraising Event, they motivated 298 donors (last week: 215) to support their cause and collected a t otal amount of 5185 Euro (last week: 4118 Euro). Keep up the good work!

The Top 5 competing for the German Football Association jersey: 100713_en

  1. U2-Forum-Spendenaktion (70 donors)
  2. Fistula Fundraising Event (64 donors)
  3. Buchmann mit Bart (32 donors)
  4. Singing for Change (27 donors)
  5. Gib dein letztes Hemd (27 donors)

Currently on 6th place: A classic example, that late bloomers still can kick off. The Fundraising Event „Signiertes DFB-Trikot gewinnen“ exisits since 26th of July and has already collected 1127 Euro for the projetc Streetkids in Namibia. The majority of the money is the proceed of a party of the student council of “Translating and Interpreting” at the University of Heidelberg.

In this competition the number of donors is crucial – with 19 donors the founder of the Fundraising Event, Niklas, has something to do. He wants to approach soccer-forums and wants to encourage all users to give something back after the exciting worldcup . This works best through a multiplicator, who supports the Fundraising Event – somehow like a advocate.

For everyone who has not started a Fundraising-Event yet: What are you waiting for?
Especially Niklas’ example shows that you can achieve a lot in a really short time (3 days!!!) if you know which strings to pull. Even if you start your Fundraisning Event now, you still can bet he most successful fundraiser and win the jersey of the German Football Association. So go ahead: Start your own Fundraising Event now. Find all details about the competition here. And do not forget: It is about the number of donors – so convince as many people as possible to join your Fundraising Event!
