Is the word fundraising hyphenated?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Prior to the mid-1990s the word fundraising was often written hyphenated as fund-rasing or occasionally as two words--fund raising.

About 1996 or 1997 the professional fundraising community began writing the word as one word: fundraising. I don't know if there is an official group or body who makes a word change official but the professional community now uses the word as one word--fundraising. Many spell checking software still identify the word as hyphentated.

First of all, congrats on getting your fundraising started! Raising support for a worthy cause can be super rewarding.

One route you might want to consider is setting up a homepage for your group on a fundraising website.

Raising support online is much simpler and more tidy than raising funds via cash or check (most sites can link donations straight to your bank account through a merchant processor). And having a group page gives you a central place to post information, photos and let people know what you do - this helps you promote your cause to friends, family and whoever else you want.

There are plenty of sites these days that help groups meet their goals - here are some good options:

First Giving (www.firstgiving.com) is a solid one. They charge about 5% on donations raised and have a simple structure to set up your page (though you may have to be a certified non-profit to register with them).

If that's the case, another option is Empowered they process about 3.5% on donations raised, offer lots of tools to help organize/fundraise, and I know they support all small groups, regardless of non-profit status.

And you could always try to send up your own PayPal account to link to you directly, but this is a little trickier and a bit inflexible.
