Fundraisers on YouTube

[DavidCruickshank]

People grow numb to constant stimulation. If every video is a fundraiser then it's like none of them are.

You made a good video and it was the first time you did a fundraiser and also it was a good charity.
I would suggest only doing a fundraiser if it has a link to the video.
Keep up the good work ✌🏻

I agree with previous posters that a donation-linked video every now and then makes more sense. ESPECIALLY if the video is somehow linked to the video subject.

Never realized that the donation options were only US-based (sorry about that <g>). Figured that each YouTube/Google login would have location based options

So nice to see how chuffed you are, love to see genuine people doing well :)

The irony of you saying 900 dollarydoos when you can't donate to fundraisers from Australia.

If the goal is maximizing how much money this channel contributes to fundraisers, you should stick to doing one every 3-4 months.

The majority of donors will be the same people every time, and if you put a fundraiser on *every* video then those people will say "I did my part" and likely not donate again because its just a constant background thing.

If you do it once every few months for a different charity somewhat relevant to the video, each time it will feel like a new thing instead of a background thing.

I love this idea, and hopefully they open it up to more charity options.

Also, your reaction in the beginning is priceless!

It's nice that early Simpsons quotes are a way to generate instant camaraderie between any two millennials anywhere in the world.

Would love to help campaign for UK charities if possible.

[Peter-ohhc]

Targeted donations are my favorites. Put out as many as you like.

[nemono-won]

Please do some more for funding ...
Your very cute and fun to listen and learn from 😉

[WinterWitch]

If you make every video a fundraiser, people will just ignore them. People will donate, if you do them only occasionally and for a worthy cause

Feel free to leave the charity link on every video, though probably keep mention of it to relevant contexts once a month or so. One Topic at a Time does this on his channel for the Trevor Project and it seems to work.

[hyrumkohler]

Maybe if it was scheduled so that it is expected but not constant? Enough time for people to know it's coming

[JonTripp]

Closed Caption says "$900 dude." I need to install the AUS currency upgrade pack.

[miketaverner]

Thing is you can't give to everyone, if you didyou would finish needing charity yourself . I have no problem giving to charities when I can, I'm all for it

[holliemae]

Wonderful content. Intelligent. Beautiful

[SomeoneBeginingWithI]

maybe fundraisers once a month or once every other month. I think that's most likely to get attention, especially if you pick a charity that's somewhat related to the topic of the video

[dombo]

You know how every time you use a self-checkout in every store, it asks whether you'd like to donate to hungry kids or something? You know how the first couple of times, you'd say yeah go on then, it's only a quid, but then the more that happened, the more often you'd choose "no", and you might even have found yourself frustrated by the whole premise?

That's why not every video should be a fundraiser. The fundraiser banner just becomes another advert, and everyone hates adverts.

I don’t find it annoying at all!! And I think it’s a great opportunity
