How it Works

1) Nonprofits create a profile using an online giving platform

How it Works2) Nonprofits across Arizona spread the word

How it Works3) Everyone goes online on April 9, 2014

How it Works4) Find, learn about, and contribute to causes you care about

How it Works5) Raise funds and compete for prizes

In 2013, 40 different nonprofits received incentive prizes, totaling $179,500

There were categories for small and large nonprofits to compete in.

Why Arizona Gives Day?• Responding to needs of Alliance Members:

– Public education about nonprofits– #1 challenge of our members: fundraising

• Needs of Philanthropic Community– AZ Ranks 40th for average charitable donations– Reduce pressure on institutional donors

• National Trend of Online Giving Days– Minnesota – launched in 2009 - $70 million to date raised– Colorado – launched in 2010 – over $36 million to date

raised

How much does it cost?• No fee to participate (does take staff time and

internal resources!)• 6.9% transaction fee on each donation

– 4.9% Credit Card Processing and Razoo• Competitors to Razoo: 4.75% – 15%

– 2% Held in fund at Arizona Community Foundation for Arizona Gives Day Campaign

2013 Monetary ResultsStatewide:• 11,176 donations from 8,584 unique donors• 647 nonprofits received donations (80% of 807 nonprofits

registered)• $928,541 contributed for those nonprofitsNorthern Arizona:• About 150 nonprofits• Over $91,000 raised on March 20• 1300 unique donors

When measured per capita (calculated as Arizona Gives Day donations per total residents in the population of a city), wealthy communities like Paradise Valley and Scottsdale rose to the top; but residents of Sedona and Flagstaff were more generous than the statewide average: Sedona gave at a rate of $1.16 per capita, and Flagstaff gave 30 cents per capita, compared to Phoenix and the statewide average, which were both 10 cents per capita.
