If you’re a nonprofit, a charity or just are trying to raise money for a local cause, the Payable Add-On can help you instantly start collecting money. Whether you’re simply creating a form to take donations, sell tickets to a fundraiser, collect bake sale orders, or even set up an adoption payment portal for your humane society, it’s easy to do in minutes.
Payable makes it easy to collect information in a Google Form, then allows you to create a seamless checkout experience at the same time, so you don’t have to collect information and then ask for payments later.
Here, we’re sharing our favorite free templates for non-profits and charities that are using Google Forms. The templates are easy to copy so you can change questions and pricing to make them your own:
Basic Donation Form
For a simple way to collect donations in a time where passing around the tin can to take cash and coins usually nets you less than $5 (who carries cash anymore?), this Form makes life easier—and nets more donations. You can even create and print a QR code using bit.ly so you can have people scan the QR code with their phones at your next event or meeting in order to easily do donations on the spot. (Or add the link to your email signature to reach even more people!)
Subscription Signups
Want to create ongoing donations for your animal shelter? You can set up a recurring subscription payment form to keep your pups and kittens in liver snackies in seconds. Get it here.
Bake Sale Pre-Order
Lots of charities and non-profits host bake sales, craft fairs, and other do-it-yourself money making sales. This Form helps you pre-sell pies or scarves or whatever your volunteers can dream up, making it easier to collect payments and also gauge interest before you over-bake cookies. Get it here.
Event Registration and Signup Form
Make an easy to use registration form for your dinner dance or murder mystery fundraiser. Get it here.
Marathon (or Other Sports) Fundraiser Form
Lots of charities host sporting events, from bike rides to 5Ks to marathons, in order to raise money. You can get event signups here, and add options for more donations—and even create another donation form that racers can pass to friends in order to raise money for the charity by soliciting donations… without paying the usual 10% fees that many event sites charge. Get it here.
Club Membership Form
Many nonprofits include annual memberships, and this free template for annual club memberships makes it easy to sign up your participants while also soliciting extra donations. Get it here.
