We are ecstatic to be providing a streamlined process for you to fundraise for costs associated with your Indivisible group. Indivisible’s Distributed Fundraising program is a streamlined process for groups to fundraise without going through the hullabaloo of forming a board of directors, writing bylaws, registering as an independent organization, or seeking out 501(c)(4) status. As part of this process, we will provide you with:
Most of the money you raise through this system is going directly to what your group needs in your home turf. To cover some of the costs of supporting the program, we will keep a 10% fee, which is inclusive of the following services and fees: lawyers and an accountant to ensure the money is handled and spent legally and to fill out any necessary compliance reports; staff time to manage the vendors and provide fundraising resources; credit card processing fees through the ActBlue platform itself; and the cost of the debit cards to allow you to spend the money.
Groups have already raised thousands of dollars to support their work and we want to make sure you have the opportunity to take your group to the next level using this powerful tool. Sign up here today, and reach out to fundraising@indivisible.org with any questions.
