Email donors and post updates on your campaign

Engage with your donors by sending emails and posting updates.

Givebacks helps you keep in touch with donors in two ways:

  • Send emails
  • Post updates to the Updates tab on your Experience Page

Use emails or updates to let your supporters know how close you are to your fundraising goal, how the funds raised will impact the cause, how they can help promote your Experience, and more. These types of updates keep your donors engaged and invested.

Givebacks allows you to email one person, a few people, or everyone who donated to a specific Experience. You can also use Donor Profiles to email anyone who contributed to your organization, no matter which Experience they contributed to.

Updates are visible to anyone who visits your Experience Page and goes to the Updates tab:

Any donors that have opted to receive updates will also get an email notification.

  • You can also view and resend any previously sent email: How-to: View and Resend Emails.
