How community fundraising works on Zanja
Create a community page for your group, association or village, then start a campaign for each project. Everyone can see the goal and progress, which builds trust and motivates more people to give.
Show where the money goes
List each cost (drilling, pump, tank, labour) and post photos as the project moves. Transparency is the biggest reason people give again.
