Benefits of Raising with YouGiveGoods
Our New Features
We're excited to help you launch your raising with YouGiveGood's new features
Improved drive setup
It now takes one step to create a drive for your chosen cause. With our Live Edit process, you can choose a template, modify details such as drive duration, drive description, and view all your changes before you publish.
Create and manage your team
It's easy to manage your volunteers and team members. The drive starter is automatically assigned "team captain" status, with a panel to manage the team. Any member provided the drive’s unique access code can join the team, and help to manage the drive.
Customize your goods cart
Your drive cart is always customizable from your Live Edit page. Want to swap that can of beans with salmon? Easy! Browse our extensive food and supply list, ranging from Fresh Produce to Kosher to Healthy Choices.
Streamlined checkout process
It's now easier than ever for donors to browse your drive's goods selection, add goods, and check out. Each donor gets the chance to leave a custom dedication with their donation, and receives a tax-deductible receipt in their email.
Increased donor interaction
New options make it easier for donors to interact with your drive. Donors can leave comments on your drive page, as well as dedications with their donations. Your updates along the way keeps them tuned into your drive's journey.
