Summary

Givebutter is a modern fundraising platform that allows non-profit organizations and charities to raise funds, track progress, and engage supporters in a social-media style layout, all for free. The idea was born out of a desire to create a better donation platform after friends told the founders about their struggles with outdated or expensive platforms. Since its launch, Givebutter has been used by over 100k fundraisers to raise money for various causes, amassing 1.3 million donors worldwide. With features like livestreaming and automation through Zapier integrations, Givebutter has changed the way people seek donations and interact with campaigns, making it a valuable tool for changemakers and non-profit organizations alike.
