Every Mother Counts

When the going got tough, this nonprofit used every tool in our shed to build a formidable fundraising machine. Check out the amazing results!

Every Mother Counts is dedicated to making pregnancy and childbirth safe for every mother, everywhere. In 2020, faced with the disruptions wrought by COVID-19, the lean team cancelled its 10-year anniversary plans to focus on new and expanded ways of supporting maternal health needs. Their multifaceted online fundraising efforts — traditional campaigns, celebrity appeals, team challenges, livestreamed events and much more — used every Give Lively product to maximum effect and raised funds from 6,000+ donors.

Tenement Museum

This well-established nonprofit museum turned to several of our fundraising tools for its survival. What an uplifting response!

The Tenement Museum in NYC fosters a society that embraces and values the role of immigration in the American identity. After a year using several Give Lively fundraising products, the museum’s small core team kicked online appeals into high gear when the pandemic forced the museum to shut its doors, foregoing critical earned revenue and canceling a vital gala. Its ‘Help The Tenement Museum Survive’ campaign and 2020 virtual gala have brought in $500,000+, for an ever-increasing total of $680,000+ processed for the museum by Give Lively.

Techqueria

This young nonprofit kicked off its digital fundraising with a community-focused campaign. Look at what happened!

Techqueria serves the largest community (10,000+ members) of Latinx professionals in tech. As a newly-minted nonprofit in the spring of 2020, Techqueria’s team of 30+ people turned to Give Lively for their first foray into digital fundraising — an online COVID-19 campaign that raised over $50,000 in two weeks (the first $15,000 in just one day!) to support undocumented individuals/families. Techqueria’s growth plans and active membership, combined with Give Lively's powerful and practical fundraising tech, promise great things to come.

Products they used:

THIRD-PARTY COSTS

Third-party processing fees

as of November 2024

We don't charge for the unlimited use of our powerful and practical technology – no annual fees, no setup fees, no other fees or hidden fees.

However, we use independent services, called payment processors, to securely manage the financial transaction process, from donation to disbursement, by mediating between merchants and financial institutions.

These services – Stripe and PayPal – do charge small fees for every transaction (see charts below), although the fees can sometimes be covered by the donor. There is a discounted base rate for qualified nonprofits that register with Stripe and PayPal. Fees are always subject to change at any time by the independent services. Always verify directly with the services themselves for the latest updates.

Learn more about third-party processing fees and about the data privacy and security practices put in place by us and these independent services.
