Convio Introduces Personal Events to Help Nonprofits Leverage Supporters’ Social Networks
Convio has announced a new online organizing tool to support online/offline 3rd party events and grassroots fundraising initiatives.
The Personal Events tool is designed to help an organization’s supporters or members to organize and market their own personal events around a cause, theme or campaign. Using Personal Events, individuals will be able to schedule, post and promote an event, manage RSVPs and create opportunities to donate, all within the official “web presence” of the organizations or causes they support.
According to Tom Krackeler, Vice President, Product Management for Convio, Inc., the scalability and flexibility of the product creates opportunities for a wide variety of events and opportunities. “Animal welfare advocates could host dog walks, environmental organizations might create nature hikes, a public radio show focused on jazz might have individuals host listening parties, still others might have birthday parties, reading groups, legislative call parties or movie nights”
