iDonate Helps Nonprofits Engage Donors Giving More Than Cash
Built around the premise that it should be easy to donate your car, boat or RV to a charity, the iDonate donor engagement platform has become a full service product suite to help nonprofits make donations easier for their donors.
Preliminary Interview with Ray Gary, the CEO of iDonate.
The following is a brief pre-interview that provides context for the recorded interview you may watch or listen to at the top of this article.
What is the purpose of your crowdfunding campaign?
iDonate was born out of a higher call to unlock giving potential and make nonprofit operations easier and more effective. We were inspired to make it possible and easy to give out of cash and out of wealth, using both vehicles to help move the 2 percent.
We invented the world’s first noncash gateway where we electronically process vehicles, boats, stock, and many unique assets such as grain and collectibles – even llamas!!! To date, we’ve processed millions in noncash donations for many different causes.
We brought embed technology to the industry to meet the expectation of today’s donor for a branded experience without the friction and security concerns caused by many giving forms that require the donor to leave the client’s website.
We built the first true Donor Engagement Platform (DEP). Unlike CRMs and Donor Management Systems, a DEP helps the organization acquire donors, engage with them more deeply, and multiply giving.
We’ve been at this for a few years, but we believe we’re just getting started. It’s easy to get up in the morning because if we do our job well, our clients will have the funds to change the world. Our team has a relentless focus on providing the highest quality products and services that truly make an impact. We see our job as a service to you. I often tell our team that our job is to bless those we serve.
