A Mega Doação: Captação de recursos pela internet
Temos certeza de que muitos captadores de recursos vão achar que é difícil acreditar que, para alguns doadores, em particular os principais doadores, pode ser difícil encontrar uma organização de confiança, e de doadores amigáveis para dar o seu dinheiro. The Big Give é uma inovação que atende ambas às necessidades de doadores e captadores de recursos. Para instituições de caridade, o site é uma oportunidade fantástica e grátis, para mostrar seus projetos, o trabalho real e relevante que grande parte do público deixa de ver, ou perceber as necessidades financeiras.

Ah, that great fundraising stalwart, the brick! How a standard product and colourful involvement device saved a splendid children’s home from having to close its doors.
