This year, Sydney Children's Hospitals Foundation's Tax Appeal crossed $1 million for the first time—and it's not alone. Both their Tax Appeal and Christmas Appeal digital income have grown over 80% in less than 5 years. In this session, Digital Marketing Specialist Sabina breaks down the recipe behind that growth: how SCHF treats its shoulder appeals as a testing ground, what they experiment with before their biggest moments, and the ingredients that turn a good appeal into a record-breaking one. You'll leave with a practical framework for building—and continually sharpening—appeals that convert.
Five peer-to-peer campaigns in one month with a lean team... Sounds unsustainable, right?
Greg Noel-Butterworth, National Campaign Manager for Jeans for Genes, breaks down what to standardize, what to keep custom, and how that balance turned chaos into a record $2.24M raised in two days.
MS Readathon has been getting Australian kids reading for 47 years—and this year, MS Queensland, with the help of Donor Republic, doubled down on designing for both sides of that equation at once: the kids who unlock rewards and log their pages, and the parents, grandparents and caregivers doing the registering, encouraging and bedtime reading alongside them. This session will take us inside the campaign's creative refresh, and how they kept the experience playful for kids and privacy-safe for families, while speaking directly to the grown-ups making it all happen.
Some appeals do more than raise funds—they capture a moment and give people a compelling reason to act. Drawing on their own campaigns with astounding results, Holly from Caritas reveals how they use timing, urgency and powerful creative ideas to turn moments of attention into meaningful action.
See what’s new and what’s next for Funraisin. We’ll showcase recently released features, share the thinking shaping our product direction, and give you an early look at the ideas ahead. It’s all designed to help you create better supporter experiences, work more effectively, and drive greater impact.
When you look across two million fundraising pages, you start to notice the small things—the subtle, surprising and beautiful ideas that inspire people to care, give and act. This fast-paced visual session brings together ten standout moments from around the world, giving you a burst of creative inspiration and practical ideas to bring back to your next campaign.
After a year of split-testing, we're opening up the results from our Testing and Optimisation Growth Lab (TOGL). We'll share what we've learned from putting new ideas in front of real supporters: changes that shifted supporter behaviour, tests that showed us what wasn't worth pursuing, and small optimisations that made a difference. We'll pull out some practical ideas you can look to apply to your own fundraising.
