🎉 Introducing The Last Ask: A New Way to Maximize Your Fundraising!

Running a successful event takes resources, and now there’s an easier way for your supporters to help cover those costs—without taking away from your mission!

With The Last Ask, your guests can:
✅ Select from suggested tip levels set by your organization
✅ Specify their own amount or opt out entirely
✅ Know that 100% of their contribution goes directly to YOUR cause

Use these tips to offset event costs like venue rentals, software fees, or credit card processing—and any extra funds go straight to supporting your mission. Plus, since the tips benefit your organization, they remain tax-deductible for your donors.

💡 Why settle for a pricing model that keeps the tips when you can keep it all?
