Caused Based Giving & Mission Forms Examples

Objective

This article provides step-by-step instructions on how to create a cause-based fundraising form in your Giving platform. By following these steps, you can rally excitement and inspire support for your ministry’s unique fundraising efforts.

Why Use a Cause-Based Giving Form?

Your ministry, school, or nonprofit organization likely runs fundraisers, mission campaigns, or cause-based projects throughout the year.

Instead of only adding a fund to your main giving page, consider creating a customized donation form designed to energize your community and drive giving.

Steps to Create a Powerful Fundraising Form

  1. Create a New Fund
    Set up a new fund specific to your campaign or cause. This helps you track donations more clearly and engage donors with clarity.
  2. Build the Form
    Use the Form Manager, located on the far-right side of your Manager Portal, to access the pre-built Giving Form template.
    This template is designed to be simple and quick for donors to use.
  3. Share the Form
    Post your fundraising form across your communication channels:
    • Your website

    • Social media platforms

    • Email campaigns

    • Text messages

    • Service announcements

Customize Your Form

The default Giving Form template includes minimal fields to streamline the donor experience. However, you can modify it based on your campaign:

  • Add suggested amounts or preset amounts (Payment Fields)

  • Include custom Form Fields to gather more information from donors

👉 Not sure which fields to use? Check out our Form Fields article for a breakdown of what each field does and how to use it effectively.

Form Properties Matter

Form Properties allow you to customize:

  • Back-end functionality such as confirmation emails or redirect links

  • Visual design elements like banners, colors, and images

  • Campaign messaging to make your form more inviting and impactful

These small details help turn your form from functional to inspiring.
