Raise Money for Your CampaignThe Cobb-LaMarche '04 Campaign prioritized a donation form in its web development plan and the donation form became the first deliverable of supporters.cgi. Our supporters tool has expanded greatly since that version 0.10 launch, but it remains the heart of our offerings. That code served as the conduit for nearly a third of a million dollars of funds contributed that year to fund the Ohio Recount effort. No campaign can carry its message to the voters without the funds to pay the printer, keep the phones on, pay for the radio time and reimburse volunteers for their gas costs. A campaign can't be very visible on election day if someone isn't ferrying meals and fluids to the folks waving signs at the polls. We know you need the money. Somebody's going to have to pay for all of that. We're here to handle creating a foundation for your fundraising efforts. Your campaign's treasurer will open an account. We will then help them get the forms we offer wired to that account so that you can accept credit cards as well as checks and cash and in-kind donations. The votecobb.org domain now redirects to http://www.iwantmyvote.com/. The template formerly hosted there which wrapped these forms are no more. But the form is still there, with the copy configured for the Cobb campaign, at: http://web.greens.org/c/cobb/supporters.cgi Since the 2004 Presidential race, supporters.cgi has been rewritten so that we can easily customize it to your needs. You write the copy, you frame the message, we'll wrap it and your website's theme around the forms and you'll be ready for business in only a day or two, depending on your choices for credit card processing. Dialing for dollars may not be our most favorite chore on the campaign trail. But it gets a little easier when you see the instant feedback afforded by on-line forms accepting your supporters' credit and debit card enabled contributions in real time.
