Who's Who In Fundraising: Big Names In Quality Fundraising

Most fundraising campaigns require the assistance of a national fundraising and supply company for product and services. But there are many prospective fundraising companies to choose from. So how do you know where to start?

Portrait Of A Good Fundraising Company



There are a few criteria that good fundraising companies should meet:

  • They should have a reputation for success and customer service.

  • They should be able to be a resource for you, offering tips, marketing help, fundraising materials, and seller's resources.

  • They should be fairly well-known; everyone on your block doesn't have to know their name offhand, but you will want to know that others have used their services and know something about them. Ask the company for testimonials and references as well.

  • They should have an online presence. Without one, you are nothing in business these days. Companies should have a website that is searchable and is a resource for your fundraising campaign, and possibly one that offers online ordering capabilities to long distance supporters.


Choosing Fundraising Companies



You can research a company's profile to learn more about them, read up on them on the internet, and ask other fundraising organizers which companies have served them well and made them money. There are many great companies out there, but to get you started, here are a few suggestions of popular fundraising companies who meet the above criteria.

Magfundraising.com – run and manage your magazine fundraiser entirely online with the help of the reputable Reader's Digest Company

FundingFactory.com – save the earth and raise funds by simply collecting cell phones and used computer printer cartridges; this site offers excellent support and tools for groups

Reminderband.com – raise money and get support from one of the original suppliers of the fundraising custom silicone awareness bracelet

FundraisingZone.com – choose from a variety of best selling products available for direct sales, brochure order taking, and spirit apparel fundraising. Includes a wealth of informational resources and marketing materials.

eFundraising.com – another division of the popular Reader's Digest Company which offers product-based fundraisers, numerous resources, tips, and help, as well as free information kits

While this list is by no means inclusive of all the reputable and worthwhile fundraising companies out there, it is a good place to start for well-known, proven sales and service. Working with any of these companies, or any who similarly meet these company's standards, will help you on your way to reaching your fundraising goals.
