From an idea to a funded project
Four simple steps from creating your fundraiser to receiving your community's contributions.
- 01
Give your community a clear goal
Start with the purpose, a target in Ghana cedis (GH₵), and a closing date. Explain who will benefit and how the money will be used.
Example: GH₵ 50,000 for a community borehole in the Eastern Region.
- 02
Prepare your campaign for review
Provide the organiser's details and a clear campaign description. The review process gives an administrator a chance to check a campaign before it opens for contributions.
Have your project budget, beneficiary details, and organiser contact ready.
- 03
Share the campaign with your people
The donation journey uses USSD so supporters can contribute from a basic phone. Share the approved campaign instructions through WhatsApp groups, community meetings, and announcements.
A school's alumni association can share the same campaign shortcode across Ghana.
- 04
Track contributions and request a payout
The host dashboard brings campaign totals, contribution records, and withdrawal requests together. When ready, request a payout directly to mobile money or bank.
Keep your community updated on what has been collected and what the funds support.
Everything you need
to run a successful fundraiser.
USSD-powered collection
Donors give via a simple shortcode from any mobile phone — no app, no internet, no bank card. Contributions land in your dashboard instantly.
Full transaction history
Every donation is logged with the donor's masked number, amount, and timestamp. Export your complete contribution record at any time.
Multi-campaign management
Run multiple fundraisers simultaneously. Set goals, durations, and descriptions for each — all from one unified dashboard.
Campaign verification
Your campaigns carry a verified badge that builds donor trust. Admins review campaigns before they go live to the USSD network.
Built for groups
of every size.
Community Groups
Hometown associations, neighbourhood funds, and welfare groups can unite around a shared goal — with full transparency for every contributor.
NGOs & Nonprofits
Run multiple concurrent campaigns with admin oversight, donor reporting, and exportable records for grant compliance and accountability.
Schools & Institutions
Fee drives, bursary funds, and alumni giving campaigns — managed by admin staff with role-based access and withdrawal approval flows.
Faith Organisations
Tithes, building funds, and mission drives collected via USSD from your congregation — anywhere, any time, any network.
A few things
before you begin.
Who is RaiseFundz for?
Community organisers, alumni groups, congregations, nonprofits and individuals in Ghana who want to bring people together around a clear fundraising goal.
Can I collect donations right now?
This site previews the fundraising experience. Live USSD collections and payouts are active for registered hosts following admin review.
Will supporters need a smartphone?
The giving journey uses USSD, so supporters can contribute from a basic mobile phone on any network in Ghana without an internet connection.
What should I prepare for a campaign?
A clear purpose, a target in Ghana cedis, a budget, a closing date, and organiser contact information. The host dashboard walks you through each step.
Your donors' trust
is non-negotiable.
Role-based access control
Hosts see only their own campaigns. Admins have platform-wide visibility with separate approval workflows. No role can exceed its defined permissions.
Withdrawal verification
All withdrawals go through an admin review step before funds are released. No money moves without an explicit approval in the admin console.
Full audit trail
Every transaction, withdrawal request, and admin action is logged with a timestamp. Your records are complete, tamper-evident, and always accessible.
