We don’t know about you, but we’re ready to see Republicans in Illinois win in 2024. As an organization, you have a big hand in determining that success. But to do that, you’ll have to raise funds to support your activities. “You can’t save the world if you can’t pay the rent!”
Collin Corbett, Cor’s operations expert Ryan Kilduff, and Cor’s fundraising expert Abbey Corbett share the 5 fundraising methods your organization can implement in 2024 to make sure you and your candidates have the financial resources needed to defeat Democrats up and down the ballot.
- Events: How many cookie-cutter rubber chicken dinner events have you and your local Republicans gone to? Probably too many. Get creative with your events and create an experience people want to be a part of year after year.
- Mail: The reach and network of potential donors is broader for an organization than a candidate, so take advantage by reaching Republicans through their mailboxes. Make sure you make it easy for them to give by including a contribution form or link for them to donate online.
- Membership: People become members because they want to be a part of something bigger than themselves. Memberships are one of the most tried and true ways for your organization to generate recurring monthly, quarterly, or annual contributions that add up over time.
- Digital: We’ve all seen fundraising ads that make you click and donate, and we’ve all seen fundraising ads that you just want to scroll past. Digital is the best place you can build your low dollar fundraising base, and it’s effective if you emotionally appeal to your audience to makes them want to give.
- Fundraising Committee: Each leader within your organization and member has their own network of contacts that can be potential donors. Identify your members who are business owners, veterans, parents, or law enforcement and have them appeal to those groups to be part of something that benefits the community.
