NONPROFIT PROFILE SUBMISSION

Give! Campaign 2024 Nonprofit Onboard

Please reach out to us via email (give@givepikespeak.org) or call us (702-900-4483) if you have any issues with this submission form.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING YOUR PROFILE PAGE
Under Contact Information, please put who is the main contact to receive matching grant invoices when a donor fills out the form. You will also need to designate the two emails that will receive the daily donation reports each morning of the campaign. This is not public information, but is built into the backside of the website to get you these emails automatically. The rest of the form will help you create your Give! profile page for the campaign website. This may be the only thing a donor who visits the website sees about your organization when deciding if and where to donate, so think about how to tell your story in the most compelling way!

At the bottom of this form, there is a ‘Save and Continue’ button. You can revisit this form to make edits until you submit it. After submission, you won’t be able to make further changes until later this summer when the Give! staff provides your profile mock-up for edits. You can save your draft each time you add more information and return to it. If you don’t see your updates when you revisit your ‘Save and Continue’ link, clear your browser cache and revisit the link. GIVE! Profiles are due by August 5th

Character Count and Punctuation Issues
Each field in this online submission form has a specific character limit for your responses. Sometimes, it may seem like there is extra space for additional text, but upon pressing Submit, you may receive a notice if you exceed the character limit for any field. If this happens, please edit or shorten your response accordingly. We recommend drafting your sections in Google Docs or Microsoft Word, where you can monitor the character count as you write.

NOTE: We understand that character count limits can be frustrating! However, research shows that capturing your audience’s attention quickly is crucial for inspiring action. Be sure to include links to all your social media accounts and your website in your profile. This way, donors can easily click through to learn more about your organization once you’ve grabbed their attention!

What
Imagine you are in an elevator with a prospective donor. You have 30 seconds to explain what your organization is about, and what it does. Be succinct and memorable, focusing on the benefits you provide to our local community. You don’t have to use all 500 characters. Think about summing up your mission in one to two sentences.
What we do*
You’ll have a max of 500 characters to tell the story of your work in the Pikes Peak Region.
Why
People give with their hearts, not their calculators. Focus on why your mission matters. Don’t get too bogged down “how” you do it, but why you do it and why it matters to our community.
Why this matters:*
Goals
Give donors an idea of what goals your organization hopes to accomplish this year, especially if you were to receive enough funding to accomplish them. Reminder that donors will not see this page until Nov. 1st, 2024.
Our Goals:*
Did You Know?
Please provide a succinct statistic or data point that illustrates how your organization makes a difference. The ideal factoid would make a potential donor say, “Gee whiz! I didn’t know that.” For example: “One out of every five El Paso County women has been the victim of sexual assault” or “XX percent of the at-risk kids who participate in our 7-12th grade program continue on to college.”
Key factoid:*
Testimonial
Please provide a quotation from someone who has benefited from your services or can speak specifically to their impact. (DO NOT INCLUDE QUOTATION MARKS)
Quote:*
Do not use quotation marks – we’ll add them later.
Name of Person Giving the Testimonial*
If anonymous, please describe who it is. For example, “Anonymous teen who stayed at our shelter in 2024.”

Images & Logo

NONPROFITS MUST SUBMIT YOUR HIGH RESOLUTION LOGO AND TWO (2) PICTURES THAT SPEAK TO YOUR MISSION. These images will be used for promotional purposes during the campaign and may be used on campaign.givepikespeak.org, on Give! social media, or as part of our media partners’ features on your organization.

Images should convey your work in some way. Good photos include: close-ups of faces, happy people, showing what your organization is doing, who you are helping. Photos to avoid: generic stock photos, group photos of staff, photos without people, photos with watermarks or logos superimposed on the image.

Here’s a handy GUIDE TO IMAGES to help you.

Final photo selection is at discretion of Give! staff and design consultants.
