Many nonprofits throughout these regions are already taking advantage of these programs to recruit new volunteers, fundraise and raise awareness about their work. In South Africa, Hedley Lewis, Finance & Fundraising Executive Director at Smile Foundation spoke about how Google Ad Grants delivered a 25% increase in traffic to their website:
“Google Ad Grants has been an asset to our organisation as we have experienced a substantial increase in referrals to our website. Our online donations has been boosted generously and [corporations] have now been exposed to our brand and want to partner in our fundraising campaigns... Google has become our silent fundraiser.”At Google, we’re inspired and humbled by such stories showing the amazing ways nonprofits make positive changes to our world using our tools.
