How this rare disease nonprofit raises big funds to make a big impact

The challenge

Raising millions for each child

No Baby Blisters raises funds to help children suffering from Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), a rare skin disease that causes the skin to blister or peel off, resulting in extreme pain and even death. They work with children on five continents.

Since children suffering from EB need ongoing support, No Baby Blisters needed to recruit more monthly donors to help. Properly displaying a monthly donation option, and having the ability to show supporters where each gift goes were important factors in helping their small staff go a long way.

The solution

Bringing in more long-term donors

No Baby Blisters started using Donorbox Donation Forms to:

• Highlight the monthly giving option for donors
• Show the importance a recurring gift can make
• Allow supporters to manage recurring gifts without any help from NBB staff

They customize each donation amount to reflect the supplies each level provides for a child. For example, a $250 donation buys baby Lily: “30 Days of Pain Medicine, 30 Days of Life-Saving Special Bandages plus 30 Days of Wound-Healing Nutritional Meals.”

Donations to specific campaigns are easy to track inside Donorbox, meaning the funds go to the right child. This results in even more donations, since a donor can then give to a different campaign to support a different child!
