If you are part of a charity organization, you may have noticed the recent trend of offering online donation. You may hesitate to follow suit with your charity because you believe going online is too impersonal, too unsafe, and too complicated. Yet, withholding from this trend only hurts your charity’s prospects, as more people in history are donating to charities because of online donation’s visibility, convenience and security.

If you are a charity or a nonprofit, you will find that there are many instances where you are going to be handing the private information of your contributors and donors. This information can run the gamut from personal contact information to payment details, and one thing that you have to do is to make absolutely sure that this information stays in the right hands! Not only is the financial safety and privacy of the people who have been generous to you and your organization on the line, your professional reputation is too, and this is where you are going to run into the question of whether you want host your donors’ information online or whether you want to keep it locally.

Dear ROW swimmers and parents
Visit online registration site for this pledging event
The yearly Swim-A-Thon will be held on Saturday, March 28th. The Swim-A-Thon is a very important fundraiser for our club. Last year we raised $13,000. This year we want to set our goal at $25,000.
This year the swim groups will compete against each other by raising the most money per group. We are setting the minimum amount at $150 per swimmer. Depending on the number of swimmers, each group will set a goal ($$).
To keep everyone informed on how the groups are doing, we will have images of thermometers per group at the pool to keep everyone updated. At practice, swimmers and parents can check their group’s status. In the blink of an eye, we will know how we’re doing or if we need to work a little harder to achieve our goal.
As an incentive, the group who raises the most money will get a group prize. It will be a group outing - most likely to be held in the spring, details to be finalized.
After the Swim-A-Thon, a breakfast will be served.
Parallel to the Swim-A-Thon, we want to challenge our swimmers to design a swim cap. In the next coming days, the website will have the information for the swimmers to get involved with that. Each swimmer who raises their minimum of $150 will receive a newly designed swim cap. You wouldn’t want to be the only swimmer in the water without a new cap
At the moment, we are finalizing the Swim-A-Thon software to make it possible to receive online donations. It is as easy as sending out a couple of emails to family and friends. All the information will be available on the website the first week of March.
Thank you so much for your ongoing support.
The Swim-A-Thon team
