KIMBIA: GIVING POWER

Want to take credit card donations directly within Facebook? It’s possible with KIMBIA. Millions of people log on to Facebook everyday to see the latest updates from friends and family, as well as information from the organizations they support by being a ‘fan’. However, making a donation directly to an organization through Facebook has been a challenge… until now. By taking advantage of KIMBIA’s “anywhere” technology, customers like The Heritage Foundation are able to build custom Facebook applications featuring a KIMBIA donation or registration form that allows Facebook users to complete a transaction directly within a Facebook app or fan page.

This is the second year in a row of record growth, with record total of online registrations, and also a new, single-day record.

At KIMBIA, we are careful not to take sides on the issues, but we do have opinions about great fundraising applications. Recently Candidate Marco Rubio was able to immediately capitalize on the fundraising power of bloggers in a way never before possible. Using KIMBIA’s Anywhere technology, a secure campaign fundraising form was placed on a third-party blog where it has generated (and continues to generate) great numbers of new donors passionate about their cause.

Kimbia client, Planet Cancer was recognized by the Non-Profit Times as a “2009 Hot Nonprofit Web Site”. Planet Cancer uses KIMBIA forms for all fundraising and registrations needs on the site as well as complementing the community focus as members utilize KIMBIA to drive support through their own social networks.

Florida-based Motion Sports Management recently partnered with KIMBIA as part of the group’s technology overhaul. Read about them in Florida Running & Triathlon.
