CTA’s can drive engagement, donations and awareness for the NPO.

If you are ready to add CTAs to your charity donation websites or are looking for proven strategies to help you, we are about to share invaluable tips that you must keep in mind when crafting your CTAs.

Tips To Create CTA’s for Nonprofits

To motivate visitors to take action and support your online charity’s mission, follow these rules. 

  • Creating a sense of urgency will make your visitors feel like waiting is not an option. For example, using words such as ”now” and ”today” will create urgency.
  • Use powerful verbs such as “support, donate, act, change, fight, end, transform and invest” will make your visitors think about taking action
  • Get to the point. Avoid needless information. For example, on the donation page, you want to tell the visitors what their donations are used for and ask them to donate.
  • Be practical and use clear CTAs. For example, if you are conducting a fundraiser marathon, “Ready, Set, Go” sounds creative and related to your cause. Other great alternatives are “Run to Transform Lives” or “Run to Make a Difference“.
  • Include emotional elements in the CTA. For example, you can add something like this, “Experience Changing the World“, or “Let’s Change Lives Now” or “Support a child” or “Plant a tree
  • CTA button colour must be noticeable and stand out. It is also recommended to use the one that matches your page. You can also use a contrasting colour palette to make it stand out better.
  • Decide on a specific action so that users don’t have to. For example, the CTA text can be “Donate $25” or “Volunteer to Plant a Rose Garden” or “Sponsor a Child for Summer Camp
  • Always place the CTA in a prominent position
  • Utilize the power of whitespace as it guides a user’s eye to that specific element and helps decrease overcrowding.
