Using Pledge Cards at Your Next Event

07 Dec Using Pledge Cards at Your Next Event

Pledge cards are a simple, excellent way to quickly and efficiently get supporters of your nonprofit to become repeat donors. Pledge cards are perfect to deploy at large events, as you can set up a station for people to fill them out then insert into a box for privacy. Or, if you’re holding a fundraising banquet, place a pledge card and pen at each seat.

 

You can create your own custom pledge card with Canva, Photoshop, Word, InDesign, or other software tools.  Be sure to include:

  • spaces for your supporters to write their name, address, email, and phone number.
  • checkbox options for slightly aspirational pledge amounts—encouraging donors to give a little more than they might have otherwise—but also an empty blank for those who want to write in their own figure.
  • checkbox options for donation frequency—typically weekly, monthly, or yearly.
  • your organization’s name, logo, and website for donors who choose to take the card home with them and sign up for regular giving online.

 

At the bottom of the card, also provide options for additional relationship building and support opportunities. For example, you might include checkboxes for learning more about volunteer opportunities, providing in-kind donations, receiving your e-newsletter, and signing up for your text-to-give platform.

    Realizing a need for reentry services in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, Bishop T.D. Jakes founded the Texas Offenders Reentry Initiative (T.O.R.I.) program in 2005. Since inception, T.O.R.I. has provided service to over 23,000 returning citizens in the areas of employment, education, healthcare, housing, spiritual guidance and family reunification. Involvement in the T.O.R.I. program ensures increased opportunity, housing security, expanded educational opportunities, financial literacy and creates a heightened quality of life for each participant willing to complete the program. T.O.R.I. clients proudly state “I am more.”

  • Our church staff has worked with various different companies through the years but we experienced a higher level of care and responsiveness with mobileAxept than we have with others. As we rolled out our program to our members, mobileAxept gave us templates and tools that made the marketing team’s job very easy.

  • The Text-to-Give program is convenient, secure and accurate! I can give at any time, not just when I’m at church, and it makes it easy to keep up with my donations. mobileAxept also offers the ultimate in customer service - super friendly and helpful with excellent results!
