Peer to Peer Fundraising

This is the hub for fundraising in your community. From this page, users can find fundraisers made by their peers. Only registered users can view Explore Fundraisers. It is not visible to external donors.

When creating a fundraiser, employees can choose to make the page private. Private fundraisers will not appear in Explore Fundraisers. Employees can share private fundraisers through a direct link.

Note: You may see this page also referred to as the Fundraising home page or Fundraising Community.

Each fundraiser has its own page with custom content, a donation flow, donation tracking, and social share options, if enabled.

The progress bar total includes company match contributions only after match contributions have been approved by an admin. The Recent Donations section does not display company match contributions.

This is a personal dashboard for users to manage the fundraisers they've created and view fundraisers they've donated to. Fundraiser creators can view summary metrics about their fundraising, edit and monitor their fundraisers, and pull exports of donation data.

Note: In communities with only one currency enabled, aggregated totals on My Fundraisers display in their community's selected currency. In communities that can use multiple currencies, aggregated totals are shown in USD.

Your community can require admin approval of Peer to Peer Fundraisers. After employees create fundraisers in the CSRconnect community, admins can approve or decline those fundraisers from the CSRconnect Admin Portal. This feature can be turned on by your Customer Success Manager.

See Peer to Peer Fundraiser Approval for more information.

You can configure the messages your employees receive during the fundraiser approval process. See Fundraiser communication settings.

Enabling social share for your community allows your users to share fundraisers outside of your organization. External fundraisers may be also be referred to as public fundraisers.

Your employees can share fundraisers externally by using the Share This Page link or by posting to select social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter). If social share is not active, then users are only able to share direct links with their organization and only those with access to CSRconnect are able to donate.

Note: External fundraiser donations will always charge fees. There is no fee coverage option for external fundraiser donations.

To enable social share, see Fundraiser settings.

You can brand your Explore Fundraisers page and enter custom text that appears within your fundraising community. These settings are available in the CSRconnect Admin Portal. See Fundraiser settings.
