Some strategies may work for your NPO, others not so much. • It is not an overnight success story. Commit the time needed to your online campaign. • A monetary goal is not always the only goal. Awareness, volunteerism, followers, likes, conversation, lessons learned all have value. • You will raise more money online than you think! Commit to the challenge!
