# GivePenny lets you fundraise by adding songs to Spotify playlists - Link: https://fundraising.co.uk/2019/07/26/givepenny-lets-you-fundraise-by-adding-songs-to-spotify-playlists/ - Published: 2019-07-26T09:30:31+01:00 - Author: Howard Lake **Fundraising platform GivePenny has integrated with music streaming service Spotify to allow users to add songs to Spotify playlists in exchange for a charity donation.** The novel method of raising money for charity means that you can now create a playlist in the name of your chosen charity, to which your friends and family can add a song in exchange for a donation. “This is the most excited I’ve been about a new feature of GivePenny’s since we [launched in 2016](https://fundraising.co.uk/2016/03/15/new-platform-raises-donations-for-meeting-pre-event-goals/),” says Lee Clark, Founder and Chief Everything Officer at GivePenny. ## Advertisement “From fundraising challenges in running to cycling, to gaming and beyond, music is ever-present, keeping you in the moment. When we realised how powerful music is to people while taking on a challenge, we simply couldn’t compromise with how we would weave playlist fundraising into the experience. Spotify was the natural choice.”   https://twitter.com/givepennylee/status/1154396702130020352   ## 21st century charity jukebox The **playlist fundraising** integration is available from today. The playlist is featured on an easily shareable and customisable page within the GivePenny website. Friends, family or colleagues who want to add a track to your playlist and make a donation **do not need to sign up to Spotify or GivePenny** in order to do so. The **minimum charity donation is 50p**, although you can increase this minimum donation if you wish when you add a track.   ## How Spotify playlist fundraising works on GivePenny ![Infographic explaining how playlist fundraising with Spotify works on GivePenny]( https://wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud/2019/07/givepenny-spotify-infographic.png) _How playlist fundraising works on GivePenny_   Tech-for-good startup [GivePenny](http://www.givepenny.com) is a charity sponsorship platform that uses a combination of app integration and creative donation methods to enrich the fundraising experience.
