Fundraising for Climate Change
Fundraising strategies for climate change mitigation, adaptation, and advocacy organizations.
Climate change fundraising benefits from growing urgency and a large base of concerned supporters. The challenge is making a global problem feel solvable at the individual gift level.
Strategies That Work
- Carbon offset giving — donors calculate and offset their personal footprint through your programs
- Earth Day campaign — April 22 is your highest-visibility fundraising opportunity
- Tree planting programs — a tangible, measurable outcome that donors love
- Climate justice fund — support communities most affected by climate change
- Corporate sustainability partnerships — companies fund climate programs as part of ESG goals
- Youth climate campaigns — empower young people to fundraise for their own future
Donor Motivations
Climate donors want agency. They feel overwhelmed by the scale of the problem and want to do something concrete. Give them specific, measurable actions their gift enables.
GiveLink helps climate organizations make global problems feel personal with campaign tools that show exactly what each gift accomplishes.
