Real donations. Real names. Real momentum. Now on any page of your website, no developer needed.
Here’s something every seasoned fundraiser knows but not enough nonprofit websites actually act on.
Donors are watching each other.
Before someone decides to give, they look for signals. Is this cause worth it? Are others supporting it? Is this organization legitimate? They’re not always conscious of it, but they’re looking. And if your donation page is silent, static, and showing no signs of life, a lot of them will quietly leave without giving.
It’s not that they don’t care. It’s that you haven’t given them a reason to trust.
Introducing the Donations Feed
The Donations Feed is a brand new block and shortcode in Charitable Pro 1.8.13 that lets you display a live, beautiful feed of real donations, right on any page of your website.
Real names. Real amounts. Real comments from real donors. A living, breathing record of people showing up for your cause!
Drop it on your homepage. Your campaign pages. Your donation confirmation page. Anywhere you want to build trust, create momentum, and show the world that your mission is worth supporting.
No developer needed. No code required. Just drop the block, configure it from the sidebar, and you’re live.

Why Social Proof Is Your Most Powerful Fundraising Tool
Think about the last time you made a decision because you saw others making the same one. A busy restaurant over an empty one. A product with hundreds of reviews over one with none. A crowdfunding campaign close to its goal over one that hasn’t moved.
That’s social proof. And it’s one of the most powerful forces in human decision-making.
For nonprofits, social proof is everything. When a first-time visitor lands on your donation page and sees that 47 people gave last week – that Sarah from Chicago donated $100 and left a comment saying “this organization changed my life” – something shifts. The uncertainty disappears. The decision becomes easier.
The Donations Feed puts that power on every page of your website, automatically.
What the Donations Feed Can Do
This isn’t just a simple list of names and numbers. The Donations Feed gives you serious control over what you show, how you show it, and who you show it to. Here’s a look at what’s included:
Two beautiful display options: Choose between a clean list view or a card view. Both look great out of the box and are fully customizable to match your brand.
Full display control: Select exactly what appears on each donation entry – donor avatar, first name, last name, donation amount, date, comments, campaign name, and even donor location. You decide what tells the best story.
Powerful filtering options: Show donations from a specific campaign or let the feed auto-detect based on the page it’s on. Filter by date range, minimum donation amount, specific donors, or even specific donation IDs. Include or exclude anonymous donations, recurring donations, and group multiple donations from the same donor into a single entry showing their total giving.
Sort it your way: Order your feed by date, amount, first name, last name, or campaign name, ascending or descending. Curate the story your donors see.
Donor comments: When donors leave a comment at checkout, those comments can appear right in the feed. Nothing builds trust like a real person saying in their own words why they gave. These are pure gold for your fundraising pages.
Donor location: Show donor city, state, or country below their name. A feed that shows giving coming in from across the country – or around the world – tells a powerful story about the reach of your mission.
Live Updates: Turn on live polling and the feed refreshes automatically as new donations come in. No page reload needed. During an active campaign or giving day, this is extraordinary – visitors can watch your momentum build in real time.
Pagination: Have a lot of donations to show? Enable pagination to keep your feed clean and navigable without overwhelming the page.
Full styling control: Colors, font sizes, card alignment, alternate row colors, all configurable directly in the block. Every instance on your page can be styled independently to match your brand perfectly. And for advanced users, custom CSS is available too.
