Nonprofit Texting FAQ
How can nonprofits use text messaging to engage supporters?
Nonprofits can send out text messages to their entire list of donors and supporters with the click of a button. Quickly notify everyone associated with your nonprofit about an upcoming event or new yearly goal.
Is text messaging effective for nonprofit fundraising?
Absolutely! Nonprofits can benefit immensely from mass texting as it is a quick and cost-effective way to reach as many people as possible in regards to your nonprofit fundraiser.
How much does nonprofit texting cost?
The cost of a mass texting service depends on a variety of factors, like whether you choose a contact-based or credit-based plan, how many contacts you have, and how many credits you need.
To send bulk texts to the same group of people each month, the Standard Monthly Plan pricing begins at less than $7 a month for 25 contacts.
Meanwhile, to send mass texts to a list of frequently changing contacts, you’ll want to opt Premium Monthly Plan or Pay-As-You-Go Plan, which starts at less than $9 a month for 150 credits and $10 for 140 credits, respectively.
Can we use texting for volunteer coordination and event reminders?
Schedule a text message and/or phone call to be sent out a week before, 3 days before, and then the morning of an event to ensure all of your volunteers are in the loop. With the power of a mass notification system your nonprofit events will be running smoother than ever before.
Can we personalize messages for our donors and volunteers?
