Dear RaiseNow Community, it is with great pleasure and excitement that we announce that Koalect and RaiseNow, two pioneers in the field of digital fundraising, are joining forces! You already know us. But who exactly is Koalect and why are we so excited about this merger? Let's find out together.
Koalect, based in Belgium, has made a name for itself by helping organizations engage and mobilize their communities through digital fundraising and crowdfunding. It is more than just a platform. Koalect provides the very tools that make it possible to organize fundraising campaigns. These are of great benefit not only financially, but also in terms of community building. Personalized crowdfunding platforms can be created that enable peer-to-peer fundraising, event fundraising and much more. It is Koalect's versatility that allows it to run different types of fundraising and community engagement campaigns that are instrumental in boosting brand presence in the digital space while raising the necessary capital for essential projects.
Koalect understands that in the digital age, effective communication with stakeholders needs to be done through various online channels. They have developed a platform that helps organizations go beyond fundraising to tell their stories authentically and effectively, while building a strong and engaged community. An engaged community is so valuable in fundraising because, above all, it builds trust in the organization or cause. People tend to be more likely to donate when the information or request comes from someone in their own network. In addition, an active and supportive community creates a dynamic that can raise not only funds but also awareness for a cause. The community can also act as a multiplier by spreading the message to their own networks, which in turn can generate more supporters. Therefore, a community not only acts as a support group, but also as an important tool for raising awareness and expanding networks.
Sounds like a perfect fit, doesn't it? We think so too! The merger of RaiseNow and Koalect is more than just a merger of two companies. It is a symbiosis of experience, expertise and a shared vision to redefine and develop digital fundraising in Europe . RaiseNow brings its extensive expertise in payment technology, while Koalect brings its innovative approach to community-driven fundraising to the collaboration. Together, we are even better positioned to deliver offerings that are not only powerful and technologically advanced, but also flexible enough to meet the ever-changing needs and expectations of the digital audience.
We, the team at Koalect and RaiseNow, are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead. Together we now form the largest research and development team for digital fundraising in Europe and together we will develop innovative solutions that enable organizations to spread their messages, build communities and ultimately make the world a better place. Stay with us on this exciting journey and see how we are shaping the future of online fundraising together.
United for a mission: Koalect and RaiseNow are taking fundraising to the next level!
