Fund-A-Need
Fund-a-Need is an opportunity for you to ask your auction participants to donate to a specific cause, need or purpose during your event.
Only 40% of auction participants win an item. Fund-A-Need will help you fundraise with the other 60%.
Fund-a-Need typically raises thousands of dollars, even at the smallest auction events. In fact, at faithbid we see that auctions with fund-a-need raise 30% more revenue than those who do not use this feature. It is safe to say, that fund-a-need is a critical element to the success of your auction fundraiser.
On the faithbid platform, auction participants see a blue button that spins to attract attention to the fund-a-need ask. When the blue button is clicked, users can donate the amount on your giving tiers or give a custom amount.
It is easy to program fund-a-need tiers on your auction portal. It is also easy to activate or deactivate tiers throughout your event.
