Whereas peer-to-peer fundraising utilizes a network of supporters to raise money exclusively for the nonprofit in question. There are four main differences in crowdfunding vs P2P fundraising:<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:282,&quot;335559739&quot;:282,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Goal and Purpose<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Crowdfunding campaigns focus on the project or product being funded. Crowdfunding can also focus on various projects beyond charitable efforts, whereas P2P fundraising focuses exclusively on nonprofits or charities. Peer-to-peer fundraising <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildapricot.com\/blog\/an-introduction-to-nonprofit-storytelling\">typically shares personal stories<\/a> and why individuals should contribute to the cause, not a product.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:282,&quot;335559739&quot;:282,&quot;335559740&quot;:259,&quot;335559991&quot;:360}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Advocates<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The advocate for a crowdfunding campaign is usually the creator of the project or product being supported. P2P fundraising campaigns have multiple advocates who are nonprofit members and are passionate about the cause. Typically, a crowdfunding campaign has one campaign page that their advocate manages.
