The Challenge

A single day to turn quiet supporters into active donors.

The Mississippi Kidney Foundation needed a comprehensive Giving Tuesday campaign that would drive donations, raise awareness about kidney health, and engage their audience across multiple channels. The goal was to build momentum for the Giving Tuesday initiative while leveraging both digital and traditional outreach to maximize donations.

01 — The Approach

Four channels.
One coordinated push.

01

Campaign Strategy Development

A strategy that blended social media, crowdfunding, and direct mail into one cohesive Giving Tuesday push — so every channel reinforced the same ask.

  • Messaging focused on kidney-health awareness and how donations fund life-saving programs and research
  • Audiences: current supporters, potential donors, healthcare professionals, and the general public
  • One multi-channel plan built around the collective power of small donations on Giving Tuesday
02

Social Media Strategy

A rhythm designed to build excitement leading up to Giving Tuesday and keep the momentum going through the day itself.

  • Teaser and countdown posts building anticipation in the weeks before
  • Eye-catching graphics and videos carrying the Mississippi Kidney Foundation’s mission
  • Clear donation CTAs in every post, routing followers to the crowdfunding page
  • Engagement tactics — hashtags, reposts, comments — to expand organic reach
03

Crowdfunding Strategy

A donation experience built to remove friction and make the impact of every dollar impossible to miss.

  • Reliable crowdfunding platform for easy, secure giving
  • Campaign page with clear goals, a breakdown of fund use, and patient and provider testimonials
  • Donation incentives — donor recognition and social shout-outs — to encourage higher tiers
  • Crowdfunding link embedded across every email touchpoint
04

Direct Mail Strategy

For supporters who aren’t as active online — a piece that felt personal enough to open and simple enough to answer.

  • Personalized letters to past donors, community partners, and high-potential supporters
  • Real patient stories showing the foundation’s work in action
  • Return envelope for check gifts alongside the online donation option
