Charity case study

Localgiving.com can help you to highlight the stories at the heart of your work in the local community. A strong, simple story is the most powerful way of getting your message across and illustrating the work you do. Stories should be focused and individual, specific examples of how your work has helped a person or group to overcome an issue. You can protect a person’s identity with a fake name, but the details of the story should illustrate how your organisation has impacted a life.

Include these stories on your Localgiving.com webpage as examples of what you can achieve in the community. In addition, Localgiving.com can create a promotional case study of your work, based on your responses to the questions below.
1.Contact information(Required.)
2.Tell us how you feel about working for this cause. E.g. What makes you passionate about it? What makes you angry or upset about it? Why did you choose this cause to support?
3.What excites you most about your work in the community? What gives you the most satisfaction?
4.What are the charity’s proudest achievements/biggest successes? And what are its “smallest” successes – the little things that have made a difference in the community?
5.Tell us a story about a particular person you have helped, and how your work has made a positive impact on their life? (You can use a pseudonym if the person would prefer not to be named or provide a link to any case studies on your website or newsletters).
6.If your organisation were to vanish today, what sort of impact would that have on the local community?
7.List three things that Localgiving.com has given your charity that you didn’t have before joining?
8.Have any of your supporters set up a fundraising page for you on Localgiving.com?
9.If answered 'Yes' to Q.8, would you recommend the fundraising pages to another charity?
10.What specific impact will match funding have on your work?
11.Describe your overall experience of fundraising and awareness building on Localgiving.com.
12.How does the local community view the work your charity does? How do local people show their belief in your charity and support the work that you do?
13.Why should people support your charity? What would you say to them to encourage support, donations, volunteers etc.
