Start your fundraiser
The first step in your fundraising journey is simply getting your fundraiser set up. After you create your Aidinmotion account, you’ll need to:
-
Set your fundraising goal. How much do you want to raise? Don’t worry—you can always adjust this later if you reach your first target.
-
Share your story. Explain why you’re raising money and why it matters. Maybe it’s for a charity you care about, a personal need, or to help someone close to you.
-
Add a photo or video. This helps people connect with your story even more.
Once everything looks good, publish your fundraiser—it’s really that simple. If you want tips on writing a strong story, check out our guide on how to improve your fundraiser description.
Share with friends
A key part of successful fundraising is spreading the word. Share your page with as many people as possible—friends, coworkers, neighbors, and anyone who might want to help. The internet and social media make this easier than ever, but don’t underestimate classic posters (with a QR code for convenience!).
-
Send emails. Share your fundraiser link with family and friends and explain why you’re raising money.
-
Send text messages. Drop the link in your group chats and message anyone who might want to support.
-
Post on social media. Use Instagram stories, Facebook posts, tweets, and more to reach even more people.
If you need ideas, we also have a blog post with tips on sharing your fundraiser online.
Manage donations
When donations start coming in, make sure to thank people for their support. Aidinmotion offers built-in tools to help with this, but personal messages—like emails or texts—always mean a lot.
As you hit different milestones, consider posting updates to thank everyone. You should also share news about anything connected to your fundraising efforts—events, progress, training, or anything supporters would want to know. This helps people stay connected and engaged with your cause.
