After you have made a donation to a project or a fundraising event on betterplace.org, you will get updates via E-Mail as soon as there is something new. That way you are always up-to-date how the projects or the fundraising event is making progress – and you get to know when and how your donation was used. Every time there is a new blog post, you will be informed by mail.
This feature is really helpful to follow-up your donation – but sometimes it can also be annoying. Especially if you support a lot of projects or one really active project. It is the same with the campaign page for Japan: To make sure the aid workers in Japan receive the money as soon as possible, we forward the money as fast as we can. Everybody who made a donation will be informed about this process by E-Mail. If you don’t want to hear every day that the money has been forwarded to the projects you can choose to unsubscribe from those updates.
Simply log in on betterplace.org and go to My betterplace, your profile page. Choose edit profile on the right and notifications in the last tab. You can choose precisely what kind of messages you want to receive. Most of the times it is good to know what happens after your donation, right?
By the way: if you want to get bites of news about betterplace.org, take a look at our Facebook page or follow us on Twitter. Well, you will get even more updates then - but in nice, small pieces!
