Common questions
About the message kit and calendar fundraiser communication.
A message kit is a collection of ready-to-use messages for announcing, promoting, and closing a calendar fundraiser. It includes email templates, SMS/text messages, and social media posts—customized by audience, campaign stage, and tone. Copy the message, replace the placeholders, and send.
Anyone sharing a calendar fundraiser: school organizers messaging parents, sports team parents reaching their networks, faith community leaders communicating with congregations, or individuals asking friends and family. The messages adapt to different audiences and campaign stages.
Replace bracketed text like [YOUR CALENDAR LINK], [Your Name], and [AMOUNT] with your actual details. The tool fills in your cause name automatically. For deeper customization, use the linked Google Doc sequences which offer full formatting control.
See full sequencesYour personal calendar link. Messages work best when each fundraiser shares their own calendar, not a generic campaign page. Donors claim days on your calendar, see your name, and contribute to your piece of the campaign. That personal connection drives claims.
Use all three. Email is best for the initial invite and detailed updates. SMS is for quick reminders to close contacts. Social posts reach wider networks and can go viral. Start with your warmest audience via text or email, then expand to social for broader reach.
In a multi-fundraiser campaign, the organizer recruits participants. Each participant gets their own personal calendar to share with their network. Donors claim days on that specific fundraiser's calendar. All personal calendars combine into one campaign total. MonthFund handles this structure automatically.
How it worksNo. This message kit generates copy for you to manually send via your own email, text app, or social accounts. MonthFund's product has separate automated notifications (confirmation emails, claim receipts). These templates help you do personal outreach beyond the automated system.
Ready to give fundraisers their own calendars?
MonthFund creates personal calendar pages for each fundraiser. Donors claim days online, totals combine, and you track everything in one place.
