Your supporters chose your mission. Reaching them shouldn't be the hard part.

You’re already sending. The question is who’s actually reaching.

You send an appeal or a volunteer call and someone says, “I never saw that.” The answer is always the same: did you check spam? Or Promotions. Or the address they stopped checking. Your nonprofit technically sent the message. That is not the same as having a dependable way to reach people. Text, social and apps each help, and each leaves its own gap.

Your supporters raised their hands. Don’t lose the relationship in their inbox. Blasts adds the part that’s missing: a direct connection they choose to make, so the next urgent need or matching gift actually reaches them.

Set up in one sitting. Build the habit over 30 days.

Getting set up happens in a single sitting with the guided setup. Building the connection habit is what the first 30 days are for. No migration, and no giant technology project.

1. Day 1Set up your organizationGuided setup walks you through creating your organization, choosing starter audiences, and adding your team, all in one sitting.
2. Week 1Add the connection everywhere supporters engagePut your connection invitation on donation thank-you pages, and on volunteer and event registration confirmations, so people connect at the moment they are already raising their hand.
3. Week 2Send something genuinely usefulStart sending and start growing connections: an impact update, an urgent volunteer need, an event reminder. Useful beats frequent.
4. Week 3Turn on a Content SeriesLoad a Content Series like Impact Stories or Volunteer Spotlight once, and stewardship runs on its own from there.
5. Week 4See what's workingReview which audiences and which connection moments are growing, and lean into the ones that are.

Reaching your supporters shouldn’t mean another monthly platform bill.

Blasts credits are prepaid and never expire, with no subscription. One typed message to one person uses one credit; a voice message uses two. That keeps the math simple and small.

Nonprofit leaders ask us

What is NonProfitBlasts?

NonProfitBlasts is a way for nonprofits to reach their supporters through Blasts, where messages land directly on a donor's, volunteer's or member's phone or desktop screen. Supporters connect with your organization once and choose which updates they want, so you have a direct, permission-based line to the people who opted in.

How does a nonprofit use Blasts?

You decide on a handful of audiences people can follow, such as All Supporters, Donors, Volunteers, Members and Events. Supporters connect and choose the ones relevant to them. Then a staff member sends a message to an audience: an urgent volunteer need to Volunteers, a year-end match to Donors, arrival details to Events. Everyone who chose that audience sees it on their screen.

Do supporters need to connect first?

Yes, and that is the point. A supporter approves the connection before you can reach them, so your messages arrive because they were wanted, not by fighting a spam filter. Once they connect, your organization does not have to compete inside the inbox or against an algorithm every time it has something to say. Supporters stay in control and can adjust or stop at any time.

How do supporters connect?

They connect once through a link or a short code, and the best moments are the ones where they are already engaged: a donation thank-you page, a volunteer or event registration confirmation, your newsletter, your website, or your existing supporter list. To receive Blasts, each person uses the free Blasts app, the Chrome or Edge extension on a computer or the iPhone or Android app, and your organization never has to create or manage accounts for them.

Can supporters choose what they receive?

Yes. In NonProfitBlasts, each supporter can choose the updates they want to receive, so a monthly donor can follow Donors while a weekend volunteer follows Volunteers and Events, and your organization separately manages private or assigned audiences. Essential messages to All Supporters still reach everyone connected to your organization. Supporters can mute, set quiet hours, or cut off a sender at any time, so more communication does not have to mean more noise.

What can a nonprofit send?

Typed messages with images and links, or voice messages recorded in the browser. Urgent messages can be marked so they stand out, for example a weather closure or an emergency appeal that pins to the top of the screen. It is meant for timely, useful, wanted communication rather than a constant feed.

How much does it cost?

Nonprofits buy Blasts credits, which never expire and carry no subscription. One typed message to one recipient uses one credit; a voice message uses two. A typical mid-size nonprofit sends only a few thousand credits a month. You buy credits from BlastCredits, an Authorized Blasts Partner, starting at $10.

Do nonprofits qualify for savings?

Yes. Verified nonprofits and churches receive 20%+ bonus Blasts credits on eligible packages through $500, for example $50 becomes 30,000 credits and $500 becomes 900,000 credits. You apply once through BlastCredits and the bonus is applied automatically at checkout.
