JustGiving is the world's most trusted platform for online giving. Its mission is to ensure no great cause goes unfunded.
JustGiving needed agency-support to help its busy in-house team create widespread media coverage about its incredible fundraising campaigns.
- Set up and ran a pro-active and re-active press office
- Scouring the site for media-worthy fundraising stories
- Interviewing case studies and helping share their stories with relevant national and regional media outlets
- Being sensitive to potentially sensational stories and prioritising the protection of case studies at all times
- Under Melissa’s leadership, the JustGiving team at Rooster PR helped raise awareness of countless crowdfunding campaigns including:
- The crowdfunding campaign for PC Keith Palmer, who was killed during the Westminster Bridge attack last month. That campaign raised £736,133.
- A crowdfunding project that raised over £500,000 for 17-year-old racing driver Billy Monger who lost both his lower legs after crashing at Donington Park racecourse.
- The British Red Cross’ emergency appeal to support the victims of the London Bridge terror attack and their families. The UK Solidarity Fund raised over £70,000 within hours of being set up and publicised. The grand total raised was over £200,000.
- The emergency appeal created in response to the terrorist attack at the Manchester Arena, which raised over £2,500,000 thanks to widespread media coverage!
“Melissa is like PR gold dust. A very gifted and talented all-round communicator who genuinely cares about the causes and campaigns she works on. Hopefully, our paths will cross again very soon…”
