Medical crowdfunding tips

If you or someone you know has had (or continues to have) medical issues, they are probably facing some daunting medical bills that they may not be able to pay off. Fundraising for them so they can get back to recovering instead of worrying is a huge help. Here are the 5 top tips for medical crowdfunding:

Tip 1: Choose the right fundraising platform. Setting up the crowdfunding campaign should be quick and easy, using mycause.com.au will allow you to create your medical fundraiser in under three minutes, just click “start fundraising” and go from there.

Tip 2: Work out the goal amount for the crowdfunding page. Add together the medical bills to see how much money is needed to pay them off, including any medication costs there may be as well, and use that as the target. Be very transparent about why you have set that goal.

Tip 3: Name your fundraiser something memorable. Make it easy for people to find your medical crowdfunding page by including the beneficiary’s name in the title, e.g “John’s Hospital Stay Fund.” The easier the title is to remember, the easier it will be for your friends to find your page and donate.

Tip 4: Include a nice picture of the beneficiary on your fundraising page. Not only does this make the page look nicer and more inviting, it is also another way to help friends identify who the fundraiser is for so they can be confident they are donating to the right person.

Tip 5: Share your medical bill crowdfunding campaign with your network. The share buttons on mycause.com.au crowdfunding pages allow you to share the campaign to social media or by email easily. People need to know about the fundraiser in order to donate, so make sure to let them know.
