Donors know that their gifts make a difference, but sometimes that difference can feel a little abstract. We’re here to bridge that gap, bringing donors even closer to the causes they care about.
Introducing Impact Descriptions – a brand new feature to Fundraise Up’s Checkout modal and Campaign Pages. Now nonprofit organizations can show donors just what their monetary contributions are going to support. Let’s talk about it!
An example of Impact Descriptions in use.
So, what are Impact Descriptions?
They’re customizable messages that share exactly what donor gifts are going toward. Take the example above us – a $25 donation provides 3 families with water filters while a $50 donation trains a local sanitation expert.
Descriptions like these help donors understand the powerful ways they can support causes, projects and initiatives within a nonprofit. And the best part, Impact Descriptions are totally personalized to your specific fundraising needs. For example:
$20 can provide study materials for two students for a month.
$50 can sponsor a foster dog while they’re waiting for adoption.
$100 can help provide clean drinking water to a family for six months.

And there’s more! AI and Localization
Not only can you manually customize up to 50 donation amounts and impact descriptions, you can automate the process using AI. After you write at least 6 impact descriptions, AI can handle the rest, giving you exponential ways to connect with donors.
Enabling personalized suggested options allows AI to help you create Impact Descriptions.
The integration of AI in Impact Descriptions allows our platform to do more than just display engaging messages. AI-driven suggestions optimize conversion rates and encourage greater generosity based on the organization's data and donor behavior.
By leveraging AI, Impact Descriptions provide an advanced, personalized experience that cultivates a robust bond between donors and organizations.
And for organizations with a global cause, Localization allows you to write Impact Descriptions in any language.
Communicate with people all over the world with Localization in your Impact Descriptions.
Localization of Impact Descriptions is a powerful feature for global organizations since it allows them to tailor their message to resonate with donors from different backgrounds.
By writing Impact Descriptions in multiple languages, organizations can effectively communicate the significance of a donation's impact in a culturally relevant and easily understood way by the local audience.

Setting up Impact Descriptions
Remember when we mentioned that each impact description is customizable? For every suggested amount you offer in your Checkout portal, you can add a specific Impact Description.
Here’s the impactful part – getting to directly share the causes, projects and initiatives that are most pressing to your organization! By adding a description of the impact a donation may have, you'll inspire your contributors to give even more generously.
After selecting a Campaign or Checkout Modal in your account, go to Settings then Suggested Amounts. You’ll see a check box to ENABLE impact descriptions. From there, you can adjust Suggested Amounts and add Impact Descriptions to each amount. Voila! It’s that simple to elevate the donor experience.
You can customize Impact Descriptions to every suggested donation amount.
