This sounds really cool! It’s great to see something new like Mieux Donner focused on effective giving in France and Switzerland. I love your goals and how clear your plan is. The 10% Pledge pilot project sounds interesting—how will you get people involved and keep them motivated? Also, I’m curious about how you’ll work alongside Don Efficace since you both have different focuses. It seems like there’s a lot of potential here!
Our plan for 10% is multi faceted. As it’s such a big ask for someone new to effective giving, we are currently focused on discussing this with our personal network. Each time someone takes a pledge we are going to share a personal quote for them on our newsletter. We also plan to reach out to our largest one-off donors, and monthly recurrent donors to invite them to have a call with us to discuss pledging. Essentially, it’s something we are going to weave into our communications and we will also publish blog articles about the value of pledging.
We will also likely weave the idea of pledging into our newsletter series which we are developing for newsletter subscribers this summer.
In terms of how we are collaborating with Don Efficace, we are going to be keeping a close eye on any new effective charities in France that they discover in their research. If there are truly effective charities that are tax deductible in France, then we would consider adding them to our portfolio of charities.
Please feel free to send any additional questions, thoughts or feedback—all extremely welcome =)
