Raising Money on Generocity.org
        A guide for nonprofits
Step One: Getting Started
  Once your PayPal account is set up (see “Creating a PayPal Nonprofit
  Account”), you’re ready to start raising money on Generocity!

  Receive donations to your organization by encouraging your network to make
  donations via the Donate button on your nonprofit’s Generocity listing.
  Remember, Generocity charges no fees, but normal PayPal transaction fees still
  apply.
Step Two: Promote Your Nonprofit
 You can promote your page by using our Share bar and the Invite friends to follow this
 nonprofit button.
Step Three: Suggest Stories
•   Suggest interesting stories about your nonprofit and maybe we’ll write about it, giving you
    even more visibility. Start by clicking Submit story ideas, found in the footer of the page.




•   Tell us your idea, give us your contact information, then click Suggest story. If we’re intrigued
    enough about your idea, you’ll hear from one of our writers.
Step Four: Create a Fundraiser
•   As an individual member, you’ll be able to create a fundraiser targeting your
    friends, social media followers and mailing lists. Also, encourage all your
    employees, board members, volunteers and others to do the same and promote
    their own fundraisers to their friends and contacts. You can even make it a friendly
    competition, with prizes or recognition given to those with the most successful
    fundraisers.

•   Individual members of Generocity can get started by clicking on the GIVING
    button, then clicking Create a Fundraiser.
Step Four: Create a Fundraiser
•   Setting up a fundraiser only takes a few minutes. All you need to do is provide a
    name, a brief description, the benefiting nonprofit and duration. By clicking
    Submit your fundraiser will instantly be created!
Step Four: Create a Fundraiser
  After you’ve created your fundraiser, it will be displayed in our fundraiser database, on the
  associated nonprofit’s listing and on your member profile page. Now go ahead and
  donate, share and comment. Also, use the social media tools to help promote it.
Step Five: Create a Giving Circle
  You also have the ability to create a giving circle by clicking on the Giving button then the
  Create a Giving Circle button. A Giving Circle is a network that you create to help a group of
  nonprofits raise money. Link your favorite causes in a Giving Circle and invite your friends and
  family.
