How we turned micro conversions into major wins for Charity Right

Charity Right came to us with a donation journey that was leaking donors at every turn. We didn’t just patch the holes – we redefined the donation pathway to boost digital income.

Our micro-conversion strategy

Stripped out 15 unnecessary friction points
Repositioned admin fees with behaviour influencing copy
Transformed Gift Aid from a wall of text to a simple tick
Added one-click checkout options
Crafted powerful value propositions that demand action

The results

Homepage conversions jumped 168% – 2.5X better than their best Ramadan
Average donation value climbed 38% (more meals for more children)
Admin fee income surged 106% (doubling their operational support)
Blog page conversions up 20% through clever exit-intent popups
New and validated propositions gave a 20% uplift in email opens

The game-changing insight

When our User Survey insights and Problem-Solution Fit workshop revealed donors cared more about feeding hungry children than education outcomes, we pivoted their entire messaging strategy. One insight, massive impact.

By focusing on micro conversions at each step, we created a macro transformation that’s feeding thousands more children every month.

How we unlocked Muslim Youth Helpline’s growth opportunity

Muslim Youth Helpline struggled with poor digital fundraising despite 24 years supporting young British Muslims’ mental health. A friction-filled donation process, beneficiary-focused messaging and unrealistic donation amounts and unrealistic donation amounts resulted in negative marketing ROI and threatened sustainability.

Our growth transformation strategy

Created emergency psychological relief messaging to drive urgency
Implemented psychological price anchoring with tangible impact descriptions (“Cover crisis calls for a day”)
Transformed website homepage with donor-centric content
Removed 14 frictions along the donation path

The standout results

We transformed their digital presence with donor-centric emergency messaging and a frictionless donation journey, slashing completion time by 88 seconds.

Homepage conversions increased 5X leading up to Ramadan 2025
Average donation value jumped by 40%
Donor retention improved by 41%
By April 2025, they’d raised 60% of their 2024 annual income

The game-changing insight

When our donor research revealed that positioning MYH as “the UK’s only mental health service dedicated to building more resilient and stronger young Muslims” created urgency, we completely repositioned their messaging.

This simple but powerful change transformed their entire fundraising trajectory, enabling them to provide vital mental health support to more young British Muslims in crisis.

How Nazia rejuvenated DEC’s 50-year-old brand with some unexpected insights!

When I started this three-year project at the Disaster Emergency Committee, everyone was committed to the strapline, ‘together we’re stronger’, but I knew it lacked the rallying effect and clarity in positioning that it needed. So I turned to donor research…

Conducted nationwide donor research
Tested a series of new provocative brand positioning statements to find relevance
Analysed audience semiotics
Uncovered the real differentiator – speed!

Game-changing discovery

“Together we’re faster” became our internal mantra. Pooling 14 member agencies to act fast in the face of a crisis was what we did very well and donors loved this.
Complete visual identity refresh, still being used today 6+ years later.
Created first-ever donor insight hub; a foundation for future growth strategies

How Nazia reversed a
5-year decline in

Crafted unique messaging for each segment
Developed segment-specific ask strategies

The results were so good

Reversed a 5-year decline in ROI
Achieved 37.4% increase in income from direct mail
20% increase in average donation year-on-year

Revolutionised UNICEF’s Ramadan campaign in a way
that had never been done before!

The challenge was fascinating – how do you create a faith-sensitive campaign while staying true to UNICEF’s core identity? Most charities were using overtly religious messaging, but I saw an opportunity to do something different.

Created “Dawn ’til Dusk For Every Child” campaign
Blended UNICEF’s core message ‘For Every Child’ with subtle cultural understanding
Built digital-first content that resonated without being obvious
Focused on universal values that connected hearts

Powerful outcome

Highest-grossing Ramadan campaign ever
£41 average donation value
Nearly £100,000 raised in just 50 days

The tremendous results

Dominated Ramadan giving space
Significantly increased Zakat income
Created a memorable brand position
