Add Image Galleries to Fundraising Campaigns With Envira Gallery

Working with nonprofits and fundraisers for so many years, we know one thing for certain: donors want to see impact.

They don’t just want to read about what you’re doing. They want to see the faces you’re helping, the projects you’re building, the communities you’re transforming. They want proof that their hard-earned money will make a real difference.

That’s why we built the Envira Gallery Integration for Charitable Pro.

Now you can showcase your impact with stunning image galleries right inside your campaigns – no technical headaches, no workarounds. Just powerful visual storytelling that:

  • Builds instant trust (donors see your work in action)
  • Boosts engagement (captivating images keep visitors on your page)
  • Increases donations (when people see impact, they’re inspired to give)

It’s social proof that works. And it takes just minutes to set up.

What’s New?

In Charitable Pro 1.8.12, you can connect to Envira Gallery to showcase beautiful image galleries inside your donation campaigns. It’s easy to connect with just a few clicks – no coding needed.

Once connected, you can:

  • Embed beautiful galleries directly into campaigns: Choose from any Envira gallery you’ve created and drop it right into your campaign page
  • Full customization control: Adjust layouts, add CSS classes, and style your galleries to match your brand perfectly
  • Works with Envira Lite or Pro: Already using Envira? You’re ready to go. New to it? The free Lite version works great.

If you’re new to Envira Gallery, it’s hands down the best gallery plugin for WordPress. Just upload your images, arrange them how you want, and publish beautiful galleries that look professional on any device.

There’s a variety of pre-built layouts and templates to choose from, you can explore demo galleries on their website to find the perfect style for your needs – whether you want classic grid layouts, masonry styles, justified galleries, or something more creative.

What sets Envira Gallery apart is its focus on performance – your galleries will load fast and look gorgeous, giving your visitors a smooth browsing experience while you get a powerful tool that’s actually easy to use.

How It Works 🚀

We’ve made this integration incredibly simple. Envira Gallery is built into Charitable Pro, so you don’t need to carry out any steps to integrate the two. Simply make sure you have Envira Gallery active on your site. Here’s how it works step by step:

1. Install Envira Gallery and Create a Gallery

Grab either Envira Gallery Lite (free) or Envira Pro from your WordPress dashboard. Upload photos that show your work in action. Pick a layout that fits your story (grid, masonry, slideshow) and save it.

2. Add It to Your Campaign

Now, create or edit a Charitable campaign. Inside the campaign builder, you’ll see the Envira Gallery block under the Pro section. Drag and drop it into your campaign to where you want your gallery displayed.

Envira Gallery

Once the Envira Gallery block is added, you’ll see the block settings open on the left. Here, you can use the dropdown menu to select the gallery you want to display.

Select Envira Gallery Widget

Now, a preview of your gallery will appear. You’ll be able to view how your gallery looks when you preview your campaign, or once it’s live.

3. Customize Your Gallery

In the Envira Gallery block settings, you can add a headline, select your gallery, and adjust the width. You also have options to tweak the gallery using CSS.

🖨️ Introducing Fliers and Posters: Raise Money Away From the Screen!

A lot of peer-to-peer fundraising happens away from a screen: at the finish line of a 5K, on a school noticeboard, in an office kitchen. Charitable Ambassadors 3.4.7 adds 2 printables, a fundraiser flier carrying each fundraiser’s own story and QR code, and a recruitment poster that signs new fundraisers up. Both open as a normal web page and print straight from the browser. Why this is important:

  • 🏁 A flier for every fundraiser: Each one carries that fundraiser’s own photo, story and goal, with a QR code that opens their page rather than your main campaign.
  • 📌 A poster that recruits: It shows “Now Recruiting” above your campaign name with a large QR code that opens your sign-up form, so someone can start fundraising without waiting on a link from you.
  • 🪄 No design tool needed: Both printables render as a normal web page and print from the browser, with no PDF plugin and no designer.
  • 📄 2 flier layouts: Hand out carries the full story for giving to friends and family, and Post up carries a short hook with 5 tear-off tabs for a noticeboard.
  • 🛡️ Off until you switch it on: Fliers stay off after the update until you enable them under Charitable » Ambassadors » Other » Fliers, and only the owner or an administrator can open one.

💸 Introducing Tiered Rates for Fee Relief: Match the Ask to the Gift!

Fee Relief asks your donors one short question at checkout: would you like to cover the processing fee on this gift? Until now that question used a single rate for every donation on a gateway, so a $10 gift and a $500 gift were asked for the same percentage. Fee Relief 1.3.0 lets you set as many donation bands as you like, each carrying its own rate. Why this is important:

  • 🪙 Gentler on small gifts: A fixed transaction cost is a far bigger share of a $10 donation than a $500 one, so bands let you ask for less at the bottom.
  • 🎚️ As many bands as you need: Each band carries its own percentage and its own fixed amount, and the top band runs on with no upper limit.
  • 🛑 An optional ceiling: A Maximum fee field stops any donor being asked for more than a number you choose, however large the gift.
  • 🔌 Set per payment gateway: Stripe can run on four bands while Windcave and Payfast stay on a single rate, because bands belong to a gateway and not to your whole site.
  • 🛡️ Nothing changes until you say so: Your current rates stay exactly as they are until you switch Use Tiered Rates on under Charitable » Settings » Advanced » Fee Relief.

📊 Your Pro Dashboard Can Now Compare, Export, and Score!

Most fundraising dashboards only tell you how much you have raised. Charitable Pro 1.8.19 rebuilds the dashboard and the Reports Overview around the harder questions: whether anything is broken, whether this period beat the last one, and which single change would make the most difference today. Why this is important:

  • 📈 Every figure has a trend: Pick a period and the tiles and the chart move together, with each total shown against the previous period.
  • 🗓️ Charts that stay readable: Short ranges group donations day by day, while longer ranges group by week or month, so a full year reads as a curve instead of a flat line.
  • 🔀 Compare any 2 periods: Not just consecutive ones, so you can ask how this December did against last December. That matters because fundraising is seasonal.
  • 📤 Export the whole summary: Send the full overview out as CSV or PDF, ready for a board pack or a funder report.
  • 🎯 Score your setup for free: Have your fundraising setup scored, so the one change worth making next is the one you can see.

🎟️ Introducing Charitable Events: Sell Tickets Inside Your Campaigns!

Most nonprofits sell event tickets in one tool and collect donations in another, which leaves two sets of reports and a manual match at the end of the year. Charitable Events brings both together, selling tickets through the same donation forms and payment gateways you already run in Charitable. Why this is important:

  • 🎟️ Every ticket is a donation: Ticket sales run through the gateway you already use and count toward the campaign goal, with everything managed under Charitable » Events.
  • 📱 QR check-in from any phone: Each attendee gets their own QR code on the receipt, and volunteers scan at the door through a check-in link that needs no WordPress account.
  • 🧾 Receipts ready for tax time: Give each ticket type a fair market value, and Charitable puts the correct tax-deductible amount on every donor receipt.
  • 📋 Attendee details at checkout: Ask every guest for a meal choice, shirt size, or access needs, with a separate attendee record created for each ticket.
  • 🗓️ Blocks and calendars included: Three editor blocks plus Sugar Calendar and The Events Calendar support put your events where supporters already look.

🚀 Unleash AI Power in Charitable!

Your AI assistant can now build, edit, and manage your Charitable fundraising campaigns directly — just by asking. With Charitable Pro adding write support for the WordPress Abilities API, tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor can handle full administrative actions safely through MCP. Why this is important:

  • 🤖 Campaign creation in plain language: Prompt your assistant with a goal like “Set up a fundraiser for the shelter with a $5,000 goal”, and it builds a real draft campaign complete with suggested donation tiers.
  • 🎨 Instant donation form tweaks: Add custom fields, change button colors, or reorder elements without diving into form settings.
  • 📝 Offline gift logging: Tell your assistant about cash or check gifts, and it will match donor emails and record transactions into your history.
  • 🛡️ Safety and control by default: Write access stays strictly off until turned on in Charitable » Tools » AI MCP, keeping read-only reporting safe by default.
  • 📜 Full audit logging: Every change made by an AI assistant is tracked under Charitable » Tools » Logs, so you always know who (or what) updated your site.
