Giving Tuesday - Matching Gift Drive Template

A Giving Tuesday section that makes the match impossible to miss. The "Open Shelf" wordmark sits top-left, a coral "2X MATCH" badge overlaps a white pill that counts down live - "Doubled for the next 5 days 12:56:18" - and "Every gift doubled." fills the center in bold teal Poppins. Below it, "$38,420" rolls up beside "raised of $50,000" over a teal progress bar that grows from the left, with "1,284 donors" and "Matched by the Hartwell Family Foundation" underneath. Built for the fictional classroom library nonprofit Open Shelf, the five panes move from the match, to the progress, to what a gift buys, to a real story, to the ask.

#What Makes This Template Stand Out

The match is the urgency, and it is live. A matching-gift window is the best reason to give today, and most campaign pages bury it in a sentence. Here the badge and countdown sit at the top of the first pane and then move to the header for the other four, so the clock is visible no matter where in the loop a visitor arrives. It ticks seconds because this is a web section, and when the window closes it hands over to "Matching has ended - every gift still counts" rather than showing zeros.

The progress is honest and editable. The bar grows from the left edge as "$38,420" number-rolls on the first pane, then the whole block moves to center stage on the second pane under "77% of the way there", with the donor count and the matching sponsor credited beneath. It is made from a fill shape over a track shape, not a chart, so updating it is a matter of changing a number and a width.

The rest of the loop turns money into something you can picture. "Here's what your gift becomes" introduces three photo cards: "$25" "puts 5 new books on a classroom shelf", "$100" "builds a cozy reading nook for one classroom", and "$500" "stocks a full classroom library", each with a coral chip that shows the matched result - "DOUBLED: 10 BOOKS", "DOUBLED: 2 NOOKS", "DOUBLED: 2 LIBRARIES". The fourth pane is a full-width photo of a child reading on a classroom rug with the quote "I read the whole series twice." from "MAYA, 3RD GRADE". The close says "Give $25, it becomes $50." with a coral "Double my gift" pill.

• Live matching countdown "Doubled for the next {d} days {hh}:{mm}:{ss}" with a 2X MATCH badge on all five panes
• Ended state swaps to "Matching has ended - every gift still counts"
• Editable progress bar (fill and track shapes) with a number-roll "$38,420" total
• Three impact cards with photos, number-roll amounts, and "DOUBLED" result chips
• Full-width story pane with a pull quote and a "Double my gift" close
• 16:9 website section (1920x1080), loops at 4.5s per pane, exports to HTML, React, Vue, Svelte, and Next.js

#Who Should Use This Template

• Nonprofit development and comms teams running a Giving Tuesday campaign with a matching gift from a sponsor or board.
• Schools, libraries, and education charities that can show exactly what $25, $100, and $500 buys.
• Agencies and freelancers working with nonprofits who need a polished donate-page section without custom development.
• Event organizers showing campaign progress on a screen at a gala, a school assembly, or a donor breakfast.

#Best Use Cases

#Donate Page Section

Export to HTML or React and place it above your donation form. The countdown, the progress, and the impact cards answer "why now", "how close", and "what does it do" before a visitor reaches the form fields.

#Homepage Campaign Takeover

Embed the published version at the top of your homepage for the campaign. When the match ends, the badge steps aside on its own and the section keeps working as a general appeal until you take it down.

#Event Screens and Social Stills

Open the published link full screen on a laptop or display at an event so the countdown ticks live in the room. Export single panes as images - the progress pane and the impact cards make strong social posts and email blocks.

#How to Customize This Template

1. Open PaneFlow and select "Giving Tuesday - Matching Gift Drive" from the template gallery
2. Select the countdown text in the white pill, open the "Countdown" group, and set "Ends at" to the end of your matching window
3. Replace the "Open Shelf" wordmark and the sponsor name "Hartwell Family Foundation" on the first, second, and last panes
4. Update "$38,420", "raised of $50,000", "1,284 donors", the teal fill width, and the "77% of the way there" headline
5. On the impact pane, rewrite the three amounts, their descriptions, and the "DOUBLED" chips, and swap the three photos
6. Replace the story photo, the quote "I read the whole series twice.", and "MAYA, 3RD GRADE" with a real story you have permission to share
7. Edit "Give $25, it becomes $50." and the line under it, keeping dates out of the copy so the countdown stays the only time statement, then add a URL click action to "Double my gift"
8. Toggle "Preview" to check the ended state, then export to code or publish a hosted link for your site
