Use cases
Learn how non-profit organizations can encourage donations through gamification and maximize their fundraising with PatronBadge.
Celebrate your volunteers
We understand how much you value your every volunteer. Either a one-time or a regular volunteer, each of them deserves recognition. Show them your gratitude and reward with custom and unique badges. Badges can be customized to a specific project, role, milestone, event and include elements of your branding.
Here are some of the achievements that our partners celebrated with their supporters by issuing badges:
- Tutoring English to Ukrainian refugees for 3 or more months;
- Successfully onboarding 25+ new volunteers;
- Actively participating in a local clean-up event;
Connect with your event attendees
Have you ever had to organize a emergency event on a short notice on a rainy day and wished you could just give your supporters a little push? Or have you ever had dozen of potential volunteers wander by your booth and leave before you could get their emails?
With PatronBadge QR codes you can give your existing supporters a little nudge to come to your events now. And for the new friends - a nice little gift for leaving their contact information with you so that you can reach out later.
Here are some examples how to use PatronBadge event QR codes:
- Issue reward badges for attending an emergency protest against Russian invasion.
- QR code to automatically receive a badge when festival visitors sign up to your nonprofit newsletter.
Make your donors proud of their contribution
How many times have you donated to a nonprofit to never hear from them again? Or, to have them come back asking for more money? Wouldn’t it feel great to receive just a bit more recognition than a “heartfelt THANK YOU” in an automated email?
As donors, volunteers, and nonprofit leaders, we were on both sides of these interactions and recognized the need for donors to feel appreciated and proud of their contribution. But with limited resources as a nonprofit, we know it is hard to pay attention to every individual supporter.
Our badges are designed by artists to create a unique token of appreciation for your donors that incorporate your mission, organization, and project characteristics yet are simple to issue and manage at scale.
Make tasks fun with gamification
Let’s be honest - while everyone appreciates the volunteers, a lot of our work is not glamorous. We know it firsthand how frustrating, boring, thankless yet necessary some of the volunteer tasks can be.
Breathe some excitement into your volunteers by providing them with the clear milestones and a sense of progress and achievement using our gamification system and multi-level badge design for volunteering projects.
Build trust for your organization
Your volunteers and donors work with you and trust you - but strangers may never get to see it!
Leverage your existing user base to show the world how many people choose to support you. With donor or volunteer recognition wall you can publicly say thank you to your supporters. Every time you are issuing a badge it appears on your donor wall and acts as an inspiration to other. With every badge your supporters can also leave a public comment on wall, which is a great tool for people to show appreciation to what you do.
