Dining in a restaurant often calls for a good check for its reputation via online as most people do. With charitable causes, this also is possible. To think that more than 1.5 million nonprofits exist in the United States alone, it is essential that you learn as much as you can in order to be right about choosing your charitable recipients. In line with this Truist and GreatNonprofits have formed a new partnership aiming to soon deliver better access to information for donors online.
GreatNonprofits is the largest online social review site for charities. A nonprofit organization itself, GreatNonprofits contains over 200,000 user-generated reviews of more than 17,000 nonprofit organizations. These reviews and ratings are posted by people who have been touched by a nonprofit and want to share their story about it. Think of it as a Yelp or Trip Advisor for charities. GreatNonprofits is crowdsourced, so it includes reviews of groups of all different shapes and sizes. That means some fantastic charities, regardless of the size of their marketing budget, are getting recognized for their work by the people they have served.
GreatNonprofit is a natural fit for Truist's corporate philanthropy platform. The social review data will be integrated so that Truist users have easy access to more information when making decisions about charitable giving. They'll also be able to add their own reviews to the database. The partnership will result in a more robust employee giving solution incorporating real-time reviews and feedback.
That feedback is proving to be valuable to nonprofits because it helps them reach new supporters and highlight their accomplishments. For example, Oral Cancer Foundation in Newport Beach, California sent an email to major donors highlighting some of its reviews on GreatNonprofits. As a result, two new donors each gave $50,000 to the organization and another donor awarded $300,000 in unrestricted funding. With a typical annual budget of just $200,000, this organization's opportunities exploded with these donations.
As several organizations today have been aiming for that "shift to transparency," they can easily have a forum that is of open-access through GreatNonprofits. When you put forward information regarding your organization's operations including the finances which used to be exclusively hidden then you are becoming transparent. In particular times when many donors search for that right charity to give their hard-earned money to they can make choosing easier because of the technology of GreatNonprofits.
Valuable material is then provided to charities for use in marketing services because of the reviews. Note that 188 reviews on Operation Understanding in Washington, D.C. were recorded last year which they use to incorporate quotes from those reviews for their new brochure and some other marketing materials. Additional fundraising is attributed by the organization to the reviews even with such a tough economic climate to deal with.
Without a doubt and with all benefits presented here considered, easier access to more information benefits both donors and charitable organizations. Check out GreatNonprofits' data in Truist's software suite in its full implementation in the following year.
