what is Peer-to-Peer Fundraising?

Peer-to-peer fundraising turns supporters into active fundraisers. The result is more donors, higher donations, and wider knowledge of the crucial work your organization does.

Why it works

Why It Works

Peer-to-peer fundraising leverages the behavioral truth that friends are far more likely to give when a friend or family member makes the request versus the organization directly appealing to them. In fact, that’s the #1 reason people give. Smart recruitment and engagement of Fundraising Ambassadors will maximize the amount you raise.

Our Story

CauseMatch is a peer-to-peer fundraising platform designed to help you increase your donor base and raise more money from each donor. The platform was born in 2017 after CEO Joseph Bornstein ran his own crowdfunding campaign to help a friend’s family. He saw firsthand how the power of charity crowdfunding could bring amazing results and he wanted to create a technological solution that would make it easier to share every organization’s important mission, encourage greater giving, and to bring measurable results.
