Q&A Tools for Non-profits
How we help
- Pricetag: free!
- Establish relationships with donors
- Let potential donors easily ask a question from any page on your site
- Help visitors throughout your site, not just in a comments section or forum
- No cumbersome registration
Engage your Donors
Non-profit sites often have a lot of visitors who want to learn more about the cause or the organization so they can decide if they want to donate. You certainly do not want these potential donors to be discouraged by a tedious registration process for your forums, or by a generic email address that they don't know if anyone checks.
Our Q&A widget appears on every page, and donors can see questions you've already answered, so they know that you are actively working to help them with any concerns they may have. This raises the level of professionalism on your site and most importantly helps you to establish a relationship and trust with potential donors.
Enable a Donor Community
Not only does Q&A help you create relationships with donors, but it can also help them establish a relationship with each other, and this is where you create the best retention. Donors and visitors can answer each other's questions about their experiences with your non-profit, about sucess stories, and about the workings of the organization itself. When visitors help each other, it adds another level of credibility to your site.
Perfect for Fund-Raising Events
Say you have a big fund-raising event coming up and you've built a page on your site for it. Inevitably people are going to have questions, and you'd like those answers to be available to everyone. If you're using Degree3 Q&A, your visitors can ask questions directly from the event page, and your answer will be immediately visible to anyone else who uses that page. No messy coding, simple as that.
How Q&A is Different
You can use forums or comments on your site, but these have very different purposes. Forums are great for general conversation among frequent users, but new users are unlikely to venture into your forums just to ask a question. New users are more likely to use a "comments" tool, but then their question and your answer is stuck on that page and won't help people who are elsewhere on your site.
Degree3 was founded by the people who invented social Q&A back in 2003, and we know that if your visitors have questions, you need to give them the easiest possible way to get answers. Our Q&A plugin is built to live on every page of your site so your visitors can see answers you've already given, and it's super-simple to ask a question and have answers sent to their email address.
