Only 64 days left to Christmas 😲 And yet Christmas will feel different this year because - let’s be honest - it’s a difficult time and, unfortunately, more and more people are finding it difficult to face daily challenges. Thankfully, there’s a backstop that comes into play in these cases: it’s the solidarity of people and organizations that work to support those who struggle to face the difficulties of life all by themselves. Today, we would like to address the organizations that work in the social context, and suggest them some tips/tools that can help them improve their online communication as well as raise funds for their causes. 🎁 Solidarity Gifts: the case of the ONG Fondazione Progetto Arca Our friends of Progetto Arca never stop: we helped them to set up the Mobile Kitchen in Rome. How could we back off now that they want to get ready for Christmas creating a website where companies can make solidarity gifts? Now that the website []( is online, we discussed it all with Marta, Corporate Fundraiser Officer at Progetto Arca, who told us more about why and how she created it.

The starting point for any marketing or donation strategy is a well-structured website. In the article [Your Nonprofit Website Isn’t Generating Donations? Here are 6 possible solutions](, we reported some suggestions for organizations to reach a wider public and therefore get more conversions. 💖 DonorBox: an efficient and safe system To carry on talking about fundraising, much of the success that can be achieved depends on the system chosen for the website. One of the best solutions is [DonorBox](: it’s easy to activate, safe, it accepts different payment systems and has an easy and user-friendly checkout process. DonorBox is already integrated in WebSite X5: find out all you need to know about it on the guide [DonorBox Object: How to insert a fundraising form or a Donate button](. ✨ Websites for organizations: many templates for a single purpose If your association still needs an official website, or if it already has one that has to be updated, you can consider starting off of the templates we have set up precisely for this purpose. Have you already checked out [FundRaising](, [Save our Planet](, [Green Bundle](, [Smart Welfare](, [KIDS-NPO]( or [GoodBoy Fundraising](? Don’t forget, you are free to fully customize them as you wish: they’re the ideal starting point to build websites, minisites or landing pages in no time and with little budget. 📢 News: Donation Day On October 4th, Italy celebrates Donation Day, a day dedicated to donation in all its forms, patronized by the Istituto Italiano della Donazione (IID), namely the Italian Donation Institute. Many initiatives are usually organized for the occasion: we are happy to have contributed this year by giving away WebSite X5 as prize for the contest #LiberiDiDonare (free to donate), which 25 Offices of Social Services for Minors and Penal Institutions for Juveniles as well as 12 Communities for Minors, Day Centers and First reception Centers have taken part. In the end, Goethe was right when he said, referring to the meaning of donation: «Do you want to be happy? Travel with 2 bags, one to give, the other one to receive.» So, are we ready to go?
