Learn about DoJiggy’s Crowdfunding options and how to customize them.
Crowdfunding is a fundraising method where donors donate to your organization, sometimes in exchange for merch or other Perks. DoJiggy provides many tools and customization options to make Crowdfunding exciting and fun. The links below will take you to other Knowledge Base articles with further information.
NOTE: Crowdfunding cannot be used to fundraise for personal causes. DoJiggy is a fundraising platform for nonprofits and other charities only.
Crowdfunding Types
- Simple Crowdfunding: Create a page to receive donations for your organization. Use this page to share a compelling story about your organization and explain how donations will be used to further your cause. Add images and videos to further bring your story to life.
How Can I Add Images to My Fundraiser?
- Crowdfunding with Perks: Encourage people to donate at a higher level by offering merchandise or other incentives at different donation amounts.
Crowdfunding with Perks example
- Crowdfunding with Peer-to-Peer: Allow participants to join your fundraiser to help generate donations. This option works well for schools and other organizations that can benefit from people participating without receiving donations per unit of activity, as in A-Thon fundraisers.

One-Time and Recurring Donations
- One-time donations allow donors to give a single donation whenever they choose, as many times as they would like.
- Recurring donations allow donors to give a set amount on a regular schedule (e.g., $50 per month). Recurring donations are charged only while the Campaign is live. Organizations that wish to accept recurring donations indefinitely can set up a Donation Page:
