Scope has selected GivePenny as its official online fundraising platform for the London Marathon 2022.
From late March, supporters will be able to launch fundraising pages from an event page on the platform, with Scope branding, colours and content. In addition to the platform’s capabilities for events fundraising, GivePenny’s commitment to providing a user experience that meets high accessibility standards played a large part in Scope’s decision.
Fundraising page creation and ongoing participant progress will be celebrated on a GivePenny campaign page, giving Scope the ability to add brand colours, logos, images and video content. The fundraising team at Scope will also have access to fundraising and training data for participants in real-time, the ability to add custom data to records, as well as trend analysis and insights.
Scope supporters will gain access to fundraising pages that provide elements now considered standard across platform providers, like visibility of training efforts, fundraiser updates, embedded videos and access to fundraising leaderboards.
Building training playlists driven by donations, earning donations for every mile tracked during the months of training leading up to the big day and livestreaming content on the day itself also feature as fundraising accelerators.
Molly White, Public Fundraising Lead at Scope, said:
“The features available to fundraisers on the GivePenny platform (including the option to set milestones and ask for pledges against them, or for donors to add a song to a running playlist in exchange for a donation) offer new and exciting ways for participants to raise money and engage friends and family with their fundraising efforts. For an event like London Marathon where runners are going all out to raise thousands of pounds, providing creative options to help them achieve their target is crucial.”

Changes at KEDA Consulting
KEDA Consulting has announced some changes. Alex Blake is now once more working as a solo consultant, leading on all consulting projects, with some freelance support from a small number of experienced associates who sometimes undertake specific tasks such as research to support these projects.
As such, KEDA won’t be delivering its live trust fundraising training programme again, but has adapted this into three online training products with bite-size videos and downloadable resources accessible at any time.
Its free Trust Fundraising Scorecard will also be retired at the end of March and can be accessed until then here.

Comic Relief partners with Swiftaid on Gift Aid
Comic Relief has partnered with Swiftaid, created by Streeva. Swiftaid is initially taking care of the Gift Aid claim submission process for Comic Relief, including support for Red Nose Day and Sport Relief campaigns.
This means that instead of sorting through all the Gift Aid declarations from its online and SMS donation channels, Comic Relief is now feeding them into Swiftaid. The system then validates the declaration information, compiles the claims and submits them directly to HMRC, removing the administration completely from the charity. Swiftaid also takes care of the record-keeping and supports the audit process for the charity.
