But the right fundraising platform matters.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, we\u2019re looking at Donorbox and Tithely side by side so you can make the best decision for your organization.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><a id=\"post-110186-_tr4ljgfiokjv\"><\/a>Why Christian Organizations Choose Donorbox<\/h2>\n<p>Donorbox knows how important fundraising is for churches \u2013 and how having the right tools can transform a ministry.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecalvary.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Calvary Family of Churches<\/a>, originally a small church on the verge of closing, teamed up with Donorbox to build trust with their members, streamline online giving, and strengthen financial stewardship. That tiny congregation of 30 has since multiplied into <strong>34 churches across 9 states<\/strong>!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Donorbox\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/explore\/church-fundraising\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MinistryMomentum<\/a> pillar makes it easy for churches to grow tithes and donations with simple, effective tools and a team that knows how to help them thrive.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/nonprofit-blog\/ministry-momentum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">top features<\/a> that ministries love:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Set up easy recurring donations with seven options, including weekly<\/li>\n<li>Easy-to-use fundraising tools, no tech skills required<\/li>\n<li>Free QR codes for your giving campaigns<\/li>\n<li>Track online and offline donations all in one place<\/li>\n<li>Integrates with the church software you already use<\/li>\n<li>Let members give quickly via text or in-person kiosks<\/li>\n<li>Sell tickets for church events online<\/li>\n<li>Run peer-to-peer campaigns to grow your reach<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By simplifying the giving experience, churches are able to connect donors directly to their mission, inspiring confidence and consistency in generosity.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>While Tithely locks key tools behind higher monthly plans, Donorbox includes robust fundraising and donor management features right from the free tier, with plans designed to help you grow.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Check out the full story of Calvary
