Raising donations for a birthday
Anna is turning 34. She has everything she needs – and instead of gifts, she prefers something that lasts. In five minutes, she sets up a fundraising campaign on bcause, sends the link to her guests, and by the evening of her birthday, her favorite organization has €620 more in its account.

The Challenge
Anyone who wishes for donations instead of gifts for birthdays or special occasions quickly faces a practical question: How do I organize this? Sending an IBAN around feels awkward. Setting up your own fundraising campaign sounds tedious. And who actually issues the donation receipt to the givers?
The Solution
Anna creates a fundraising campaign on bcause for free. With a short text about why this topic is close to her heart and the link to one or more favorite organizations. She sends the link via WhatsApp to her birthday guests.
Set up for free and in minutes – no technical background knowledge needed
Every giver automatically receives a donation receipt – directly after the transaction
The donations are automatically distributed to the selected organizations – Anna doesn't need to forward or track anything
No transaction fees – 100% arrives
Collecting through my own account was too legally risky for me, and with direct donations, I had no overview. Both issues are resolved with my bcause fundraising campaign. Cleanly bundled and transparent.
Anna, 34
The Result
€620 for the rainforest. No forgotten bank transfers, no manual receipts, no hassle. And Anna's guests know: Their gesture has arrived, and so has their own donation receipt.
