Introducing Nuclavis DIY Challenges: Powering the Next Generation of DIY Fundraising
DIY fundraising continues to evolve—and so do the expectations of today’s supporters. They want experiences that are engaging, social, and seamlessly integrated into their daily lives. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Nuclavis Challenges, a new feature now available to all Nuclavis clients, designed to take DIY and social challenges to the next level.
Build a Challenge That’s Easy to Join—and Hard to Ignore
With Nuclavis Challenges, organizations can define:
- A challenge timeframe (e.g., 30 days)
- A unit of measurement (e.g. distance, steps, or points)
- A clear activity goal (e.g., run 30 miles, walk 100,000 steps, earn 50 points)
Participants register using your P2P fundraising platform of choice, and from there, the mobile app becomes their central hub for both activity tracking and fundraising.
The result is a seamless, mobile-first experience that keeps participants connected, motivated, and engaged throughout the entire challenge.
Seamless Activity Tracking with Wearable Integrations
With built-in activity integrations—including Apple Health, Fitbit, Garmin, and Strava—participants can seamlessly track their progress within the app.
Once connected, activity data automatically syncs, allowing fundraisers to:
- Track progress in real time
- See exactly where they stand against their goal
- Stay engaged without manual entry
Whether it’s a 30-mile challenge or a 500-point goal, participants always know how they’re performing.
Motivation Through Competition and Visibility
One of the most powerful drivers of engagement in social challenges is competition.
Nuclavis Challenges unlocks powerful engagement opportunities through:
- Dynamic leaderboards based on activity and progress
- Real-time goal tracking
- Increased frequency of app engagement
- A more interactive and motivating participant experience
Participants can see how they measure up against others—individually or as part of a team—creating friendly competition that drives them to stay active and fundraise more.
Engagement Drives Fundraising
The impact of this increased engagement is measurable.
From our data, mobile-first participants raise 167% more than their peers. The more frequently fundraisers engage—logging activity, checking progress, and interacting with the app—the more likely they are to fundraise and exceed their goals.
In other words, engagement drives impact.
Extend the Experience Beyond the App
Nuclavis Challenges doesn’t stop at the mobile experience.
With available APIs, organizations can pull top individual and team leaderboards directly onto their website, creating a consistent experience across channels and amplifying visibility, recognition, and competition.
