31 Getting to grips with online fundraising Try answering these questions: Why did your group set up? What would happen if your group didn't exist, or if you have to reduce your services? What has your group achieved since it was set up, and what goals and objectives do you have?

32 Getting to grips with online fundraising Incorporate these three components so that people can build an understanding of what you do. - The challenge - what was the wrong to be made right? - The hero - how does your groups operate to address the challenges you have described? - The resolution - what does the situation look like as a result of your work?

33 Getting to grips with online fundraising How many people does your group support every week/month/year, how many since you started? What partner organisations do you work with? Have you won awards? Do you have testimonials from service-users? Report your impact - How have you spent fundraising proceeds in the past?

Make a clear Call to Action, for example, 'Donate £5 via our Localgiving page.
