Nonprofit supporter interest form template
This five-step nonprofit supporter interest form asks the supporter’s main interest, how often they would give, what appeals to them and their update preference, followed by the contact details. Clone it into your Growform account and name your own programs.
What the form asks, step by step
Supporters describe their interest before they are asked for anything. The answers show who is a likely donor, who wants to volunteer and how to stay in touch.
-
Step 1: “What is your main interest in our work?”
Supporting a cause, community work, volunteering or curiosity sorts new supporters.
-
Step 2: “How often would you like to contribute to our cause?”
Monthly, quarterly, annual or one-time answers flag likely recurring donors.
-
Step 3: “Which aspects appeal to you most about our non-profit?”
Transparency, impact or mission tells you which message to lead with.
-
Step 4: “How would you prefer to receive updates from us?”
Email, text, postal mail or no updates respects each supporter’s channel.
-
Step 5: “How shall we contact you?”
Name, email and phone come last.
-
After submitting
New supporters see a standard thank-you, which a charity would rewrite with a welcome and a link to its latest report.
Who it’s for
Charities, community groups and nonprofit fundraising teams use this template to capture supporters from campaigns, events and social posts. Each sign-up says why the person cares, how often they might give and how they want to hear from you, so your supporter CRM starts with segments rather than a bare email list. The volunteering option also finds helpers. Organizations recruiting volunteers directly can use the volunteer sign-up template.
Why this structure converts
- The form asks about interests before money, so it reads as a welcome rather than an appeal.
- The frequency question identifies potential monthly donors without asking for an amount.
- Update preferences are collected up front, which helps you honor them from the first message.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a non profit donation form?
No. It captures interest and preferences before a donation. Pair it with your payment page, or redirect monthly givers there after they submit.
Can it sync with our donor CRM?
Yes. Growform connects to NationBuilder, Little Green Light, Virtuous and NeonCRM, as well as to Mailchimp.
Can volunteers use the same form?
Yes. Anyone who chooses volunteering can be tagged and passed to your volunteer coordinator.
