Four weeks before
Lock the appeal list, price the impact tiers and rebuild your storefront order so Zakat-eligible appeals sit at the top.
- Zakat-eligible appeals flagged
- Impact tiers agreed with programmes team
- Fund wording checked
- QR posters printed for the masjid
Week one of Ramadan
Establish the daily cadence early: one Story ask, one proof post, one broadcast per week. Consistency beats intensity.
The last ten nights
Expect the majority of giving here. Have Laylat al-Qadr specific appeals ready and prepared to publish without an approval bottleneck.
After Eid
Report outcomes within two weeks and convert one-off Ramadan donors into monthly givers while gratitude is still fresh.
The short version
CharityFront in short
Ramadan compresses a year of fundraising into thirty days. The charities that do well are the ones whose setup was finished before it began.
- What is CharityFront?
- CharityFront is a storefront and link-in-bio platform for charities and storefronts. An organisation gets one mobile page that holds its campaigns, donate buttons, Shopify shop, events, QR codes and supporter sign-ups, plus a dashboard that reports where every donation, sale and sign-up came from.
- Who is it for?
- Registered charities and non-profits that raise money from social media, including Muslim charities handling Zakat, Sadaqah and Waqf, and the small fundraising or digital teams who run their campaigns.
- What problem does it solve?
- One bio link cannot serve many campaigns, mobile donation forms lose donors, and charities cannot tell which post, QR code or ambassador produced a donation. CharityFront puts every campaign on one page and attributes each donation to its source.
- Why choose it over the alternatives?
- Fixed impact tiers instead of an empty amount box, Zakat and Waqf handled as separate reportable funds, ambassador sub-links with their own analytics, and Stripe Connect payouts straight to the charity's own account. It also works alongside an existing donation platform rather than replacing it.
- What does it cost?
- Creating a charity account and building a storefront is free. Publishing publicly and Pro features (ambassador sub-links, shop, quick donate, advanced analytics, integrations) require a paid plan.
