How To Crowdfund For Your Charity On FUNDITION.IO And Change Lives!

in #fundition-io6 years ago (edited)

In spite of having so many channels to fund your charitable cause, people tend to get lost because they do not get enough funding even if their idea is helping millions. Also, charity projects affecting a lesser set of people are not getting any help from top investors and they die. We have so many crowdfunding platforms for charities like Generosity by Indiegogo, Crowdrise by GoFundMe, Razoo, Charity Navigator, Network for Good etc. yet they are charging fees and giving major chunk of audience to only big projects. Fundition will change this! It believes in everyone(Founders) as equal which is the basis of "Proof Of Merit"

Fundition's Experience With Charitable Projects

If you want to have a look at the charitable projects currently hosted on Fundition, you can go to this link: https://fundition.io/#!/charity and see how many projects are live right now. Out of 189 Projects, 40+ are related to charity and hence you can see a huge piece of support is being taken by founders who are changing thousands of lives on daily basis. This is one reason I support this project even more.

Now, Let me explain how a Charitable Project or any other project would look like or should look like on Fundition's Website. I will give you the brief overview about all the sections and how you can use them to get maximum output.

STEEM FOR THE KIDS!

It's the best representation of a Charity Project on Fundition. This is how it looks like on the platform. Created by the Founder and a super @funditian called @leotrap. According to me he has been doing an amazing job in his local community. A top grade influencer on STEEM Blockchain who is also the part of @sndbox incubator. It's amazing to see the value he is creating offline and also with his amazing video editing skills which he showcase on @dtube. I just love his work! And I would lie if I say - I am not a fan. This project is about a Public Sports plaza funded and operated by the community in the country of Uruguay, South America.

Now, let's talk about how you can structure your campaign using Fundition UI. It's an epitome of presentation and wonderfully designed by the team. Kudos to them!

ABOUT

In this section, you tell a story about your project. Just like @leotrap did in this one. There is a man Oliver who built this place and managed to make so many wooden toys with absolutely no help from outside. With passage of time his dream started to fade away due to no maintenance of the area. Hence, the government and local authorities were approached by LEO and they decided to revive plus start the sports plaza. A fundition campaign was set by LEO and kicked off around 2 months ago from now to raise funds!

NEWS

This tab contains all the latest updates made in the campaign using the campaign tag! You can find this tag in your campaign and through that, fundition will know that this is an update. If they have agreed to support you after their strong vetting process, they will send you upvotes. So keep making frequent upvotes to generate funds quickly. The idea is to provide regular progress status of the campaign to the community so that they will recognize the work done and maybe appreciate it through their upvotes.

BACKERS

This section contains the list of the backers basically the people who upvote the updates of the project and also the list of people who directly donated to the project using the fundition website.

COMMENTS

In this section, you can find comments made on the Fundition Campaign. You can even give upto 5 Star rating to the project. This will add more value and validation to your charitable initiative.

BENEFICIARIES

This section contains the list of beneficiaries of the project. So you can add multiple beneficiaries who will get the designated percentage of the funds gathered through your campaign. To support Fundition, you can give back some percentage to them or to any other STEEM account you want. You can even accept collaborators who can add their update/support to the project through the content. The little button on the top right corner of the below window with two shaking hands will tell you if the project accepts updates from Collaborators.

DONATE

Through this section, you can directly donate to the project. Once you select the amount, you will get multiple options to choose from. One can donate through their STEEM Wallet or by transferring other cryptos. There is an option to donate through Credit cards and other channels will come soon.

FREE SUPPORT

If you do not want to donate directly, you can choose this wonderful option to provide support. This will simply add more hearts to the project and provide them upvote using your voting power to their latest update. Obviously the project has to have an update which is not older than 7 days!

REWARDS

This is my favorite section in any fundition campaign. It provides a list of rewards which is provided by the Founder to give something back to exclusive backers. You can set tiers of rewards according to the amount of fund you receive from the backers. This will give more incentive to anyone who is feeling a little more philanthropic on that day.

TOP BACKERS

This section can give you a list of top backers who are supporting the projects with funds and upvotes.

So these were the main sections of any Fundition Campaign and STEEM For The Kids is the best example to showcase them. Please support this campaign if you believe in their mission and want to contribute.

Ideal scenario of using Steemit to reach a larger audience and not let a charitable cause lose steam just because it's perceived to be affecting lesser people. Totally for it. What's amazing is there are no taxes or charges levied so the enture amount generated goes to the cause.
