When people hear phrases like online fundraising, email marketing, or digital promotion, it can feel intimidating — especially if you’re part of a small community group run by volunteers.
The good news is this:
You don’t need to be an internet expert to raise funds online — and you don’t need to break any rules to do it either.
With the right support in place, online fundraising can actually be simpler, cheaper, and more effective than many traditional methods.
The Reality for Most Community Groups
Most community groups, clubs, and good causes:
- Are run by volunteers
- Have limited time and budgets
- Rely on events, donations, and the same supporters again and again
- Worry about doing things properly and legally
Online fundraising often feels like something “other people” do — not something for local groups.
That’s exactly the gap Raffle Page CIC exists to fill.
How Raffle Page CIC Makes Online Fundraising Simple
Raffle Page CIC is set up to take the technical, legal, and promotional stress out of running raffles online.
You don’t need:
- A website
- Technical skills
- Marketing experience
- Knowledge of raffle regulations
We handle the complicated parts — and guide you through the simple ones.
Starting Simple: Offline Promotion Still Matters
Online fundraising works best when it’s supported by real-world promotion, especially at the beginning.
That’s why we help groups start with what they already know:
- Free leaflets
- Posters in local shops, halls, and noticeboards
- Promotion at events, meetings, and gatherings
- Word of mouth in the community
We provide ready-made artwork for:
- Leaflets
- Posters
- Social media posts
- Online raffle promotion
So you’re never starting from scratch — and everything looks professional and consistent.
Building an Email List (Without Extra Cost)
Here’s where things start to get really powerful.
Every time someone buys a raffle ticket online, you begin to build a list of past supporters — people who have already shown they care about your cause.
That means:
- You’re not starting from zero every time
- You’re not constantly asking strangers
- You’re building a community of supporters over time
After just a few raffles, you’ll have a growing email database of people who:
- Know your cause
- Have supported you before
- Are far more likely to support you again
And the best part?
Contacting past ticket buyers costs very little — sometimes nothing at all.
Why Each Raffle Gets Better Results
Traditional fundraising often feels like starting again every time.
With Raffle Page CIC:
- Each raffle builds momentum
- Each supporter strengthens future results
- Each email sent reaches people who already trust you
Over time, your raffles tend to:
- Launch faster
- Reach more people
- Generate better responses
- Require less effort than the first one
That’s how online fundraising becomes sustainable, not exhausting.
