2. The Case for Online Fund Raising
• 1 in 5 are going to your site specifically to make a donation. Global Currents equips you maximize
the opportunity for converting ‘passive viewers’ to ‘active engagers’
• Nonprofits with an integrated fundraising page can receive up to five times the donations than those
sending donors to a third party site like CanadaHelps. Global Currents seamlessly integrates into
your site, rather than sending them to a ‘hosted solution.’
• Online giving has now surpassed giving via Direct Mail. Global Currents positions you to take
advantage of the wave of giving coming your way.
• 26% of offline donors consider themselves “loyal to the cause” versus 49% of online donors. Global
Currents integrated donation solution allows you to engage your donor into your cause by keeping
the experience on your site, with your story.
• The five year cumulative giving of an offline donor is $86 versus an online donor which is $237. Our
Monthly Partnership Program successfully allows you manage this ongoing relationship.

585 million users on Facebook. 41% log in every day, 40% follow a “brand” 51% of
brand followers will purchase that brand regularly. Is your giving solution social?

7. Pipeline API
Case Study: Special Olympics British Columbia (SOBC)
• Problem: SOBC needed an integrated donation solution, that could
provide a way for donors to donate to one of their 26 “branches”,
while meeting new branding standards, and having the ability to
send out “thank you” cards and other custom requirements. All
under a budget of $3000 with no in house IT.
• Solution: Global Currents Pipeline API Drupal Module with full
instal, theming and customization.
• Result: Our world-class development shop was able to integrate
our Drupal Module and theme it to match their branding standards.
We integrated the custom “thank you” card add on into their back
end CMS while coming in under budget.

10. Spotlight: Global Currents - Global Features
4 features we think you should know about:
1. social media sharing: after someone donates, have them land on a page that
encourages them to tweet, Facebook share and email out their support of your
organization
2. donor to cover the transaction cost: over 90% of your donors are willing to tick a
box to cover the cost of the transaction - why aren’t you asking? With all our products,
donors simply tick a box to cover the fee, and it updates their total to the new amount.
Simple, effective, and saves you money
3. no third party merchant needed: we are the payment processor and as such there’s
no need to link up to another party and pay a monthly fee. We handle everything - from
payments to refunds and we deposit the funds into your bank account
4. no upfront costs, no technical knowledge needed: because the gateway is hosted
by Global Currents, you can focus on what matters: your mission. We set up the product
and simply provide you with a link and an embed code to just “drop” into your site
