How GIVING Empowers Change
GIVING is more than just a foundation—it’s a platform that supports nonprofits and social initiatives across the world. Here’s how we do it
GIVING!
Project Giving Tree:
Growing Your Donor Base
Plant the seeds of generosity, and watch your nonprofit flourish!
At Project Giving Tree, we believe that every donation is like planting a seed. Our powerful Donor Management Platform helps you nurture and grow your donor relationships by automating the entire process—tracking engagement, sending personalized follow-ups, and making giving easier than ever. Just like a tree grows strong roots, our platform helps you build a solid foundation of supporters who will continue to give, year after year.
With simple tools like automated email and SMS campaigns, a customizable donation form, and built-in engagement tracking, you'll have everything you need to cultivate a vibrant community of donors.
