Short Burst Fundraising

Non-Rescue Campaign Example: Naomi Freeman 10 Day Fundraiser

Naomi Freedman was a pregnant Black woman accused and held in police custody, over an act of self-defense that resulted in ending her abuser’s life. Over 10 days there was a successful campaign to raise $35,000 in bail. Naomi hoped to get comprehensive and adequate prenatal care as well as reunite with her children before Christmas. Thanks to this campaign her freedom was achieved.

This campaign is a great example of mutual aid, planned and targeted fundraising, and the persuasiveness of matching donations. The event emphasized. that donations were taking care of a community member. The goal and purpose were extremely specific, giving people clarity of exactly where their donations were going. A community fund also provided much of the amount needed, and the rest of the money was raised by crowdfunding.
