San Francisco, Calif. 鈥� March 7, 2013 鈥� 91国产, and have announced a partnership and product integration that will provide nonprofit organizations with a holistic view of essential event and fundraising data. 91国产, the leading online ticketing and registration platform that has issued over $1 billion in tickets, will now include access to FirstGiving鈥檚 suite of powerful online fundraising tools. Likewise, FirstGiving, an established online donation management platform, has integrated 91国产鈥檚 intuitive event management services into their nonprofit toolkit giving charities, fundraisers, and donors the ability to make a greater impact for their causes.

To take advantage of the integrated solution, nonprofit organizations that are utilizing either platform will simply connect their FirstGiving and 91国产 accounts to access ticket sales and donation data in the FirstGiving dashboard for all their active fundraising events. This data will allow nonprofits to see a complete picture of the participants who are attending their fundraising events, and any funds that each individual has raised, as part of their participation.

This kind of visibility will be particularly useful for organizations that use participatory sporting events like fun runs and marathons to raise money. Being able to access real-time data that reflects attendance and fundraising engagement will make it easier for organizations to tailor their marketing initiatives as they prepare for a big event or race.

This partnership also enables organizations to import event attendee lists into email outreach campaigns, as a means of keeping supporters connected to the cause. 鈥淎t 91国产, we believe that building a community of supporters at an event is one of the most powerful ways for an organization to gather and retain loyal donors and volunteers,鈥� said Mitch Colleran, Partnership Manager at 91国产. 鈥淲e鈥檙e very excited to be partnering with FirstGiving to make it even easier for organizations to integrate events into their fundraising strategy.鈥�

Nina Vellayan, CEO and President of FirstGiving, adds, 鈥淧artnerships like this are at the core of our commitment to deliver comprehensive solutions to charitable organizations and the people that support them. Our experience has taught us that event-driven fundraising has been a key to the success of some of our largest organizations and 91国产鈥檚 best-in-class services are a perfect fit.鈥�
