2016 was an extraordinary year.
\nTogether, we raised over $133,000,000.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With our new array of robust and easy-to-use tools, charities and donors helped make more impact than ever. From significant growth in securities donations, to selling more event tickets that\u00a0could seat Madison Square Garden, CanadaHelps charity partners\u00a0rocked it.<\/p>\n

Based on CanadaHelps data, here\u2019s our top 10 list of exciting things charities and donors accomplished in 2016:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Hundreds of charities embedded donation pages on their websites using CanadaHelps. See some fantastic examples<\/a><\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  2. 350 charities launched change-making events, like this one<\/a><\/strong>, using our new Events platform and the average charity raised more than $6.5k.<\/li>\n
  3. The average size of a security donation was a whopping $3.2k.<\/li>\n
  4. Gifts from Securities donations grew by 45%.<\/li>\n
  5. More than 400 charities launched a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Social Fundraising event.<\/li>\n
  6. An average of 70 gifts were made per P2P campaign.<\/li>\n

  8. Monthly gifts set-up grew by more than 35% year-over-year, and monthly gifts (dollar amount) accounted for 15% of total donations made using CanadaHelps.<\/li>\n
