# Technique T0014: Prepare Fundraising Campaigns * **Summary**: Fundraising campaigns refer to an influence operation’s systematic effort to seek financial support for a charity, cause, or other enterprise using online activities that further promote operation information pathways while raising a profit. Many influence operations have engaged in crowdfunding services on platforms including Tipee, Patreon, and GoFundMe. An operation may use its previously prepared fundraising campaigns (see: Develop Information Pathways) to promote operation messaging while raising money to support its activities. * **Belongs to tactic stage**: TA15 | Incident | Descriptions given for this incident | | -------- | -------------------- | | Counters | Response types | | -------- | -------------- | | [C00059 Verification of project before posting fund requests](../../generated_pages/counters/C00059.md) | D02 | | [C00155 Ban incident actors from funding sites](../../generated_pages/counters/C00155.md) | D02 | | [C00216 Use advertiser controls to stem flow of funds to bad actors](../../generated_pages/counters/C00216.md) | D02 | DO NOT EDIT ABOVE THIS LINE - PLEASE ADD NOTES BELOW
