EMAIL MARKETING

This email marketing campaign for Nahda Center was designed to bridge the gap between community connection and actionable philanthropy.

WE DIVIDED THE AUDIENCE INTO THESE KEY SEGMENTS

Two Part Series: The two part series focuses on onboarding and donation conversion. The first design serves as a warm welcome, utilizing a clean, accessible layout to encourage newsletter sign ups and foster a sense of belonging.

Fundraising Narrative: The second shifts to a compelling fundraising narrative, using impactful imagery and bilingual typography to highlight the tangible power of a $50 monthly contribution. Together, they create a cohesive brand voice that is both inviting and purposeful

Campaign Results: With Nahda Brand, we achieved the largest return on donations through a few advertisements, and we achieved a high CTR rate of 5.70%, reaching more than 7,000 link clicks, including more than 470 donations.

Through our partnership with the Nahda Center, we successfully maximized the return on donations using targeted advertisements. By building a culturally aware digital strategy and delivering tailored content across the right channels, we strengthened the center's connection with its diverse community. This approach not only enhanced awareness and engagement but also established a solid digital foundation to support sustainable growth, ongoing fundraising efforts, and long term impact.
