If their recommendation rating is low, probe concretely what would need to change for them to give again or recommend the organization; if high, probe what specifically earned that trust so it can be reinforced elsewhere.

What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Goes beyond static satisfaction ratings with an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs the real story behind a donor's satisfaction and likelihood-to-recommend score, not just the number itself
  • Uses a max-diff exercise to force real trade-offs on what actually drives giving decisions, rather than asking donors to rate motivations independently
  • Includes a constant-sum allocation question so donors show exactly how they'd split funds across programs, giving fundraising teams concrete budget-signal data
  • Pairs a satisfaction matrix and recommendation scale with an automated report, so development teams get both structured metrics and a synthesized qualitative narrative from one survey

QuestionPro

Non Profit Fundraising Feedback Survey Questions + Sample Questionnaire Template

This is presented as a sample questionnaire with example questions rather than a single polished, ready-to-field survey. It covers standard fundraising feedback themes and can be adapted within QuestionPro's broader survey platform, but the page itself is closer to a question-bank reference than a launch-ready template.

What it does well

  • Established, full-featured survey platform with broad question-type support
  • Provides sample questions covering multiple angles of fundraising feedback

Where it falls short

  • No adaptive AI follow-up questions — donors answer the same fixed question set regardless of their responses
  • No indication of automated per-response quality scoring or auto-generated narrative reports

SurveyMonkey

Fundraising Feedback Survey Template

A ready-to-use, static template built on SurveyMonkey's well-known survey infrastructure, likely offering quick deployment and standard analytics. It's designed for broad applicability rather than depth on any one donor's story, and question logic is limited to conditional branching rather than open-ended AI probing.

What it does well

  • Quick to deploy on a mature, widely-used survey platform
  • Likely includes standard skip logic and baseline reporting dashboards

Where it falls short

  • No adaptive AI interview to dig into the reasoning behind a donor's rating
  • No voice AI interview option or guided screen-share tasks
  • No transparent, publishable prompt methodology for any follow-up questions

SurveySparrow

Fundraising Feedback Form Template

A conversational-style form template, which fits SurveySparrow's chat-like survey format and may feel more personal than a plain form. It still relies on pre-written questions rather than dynamically generated follow-ups tailored to each donor's answers.

What it does well

  • Conversational, chat-style question flow that can feel more engaging than a traditional form
  • Fits within a platform built for quick, mobile-friendly survey experiences

Where it falls short

  • Conversational format is still scripted, not adaptive — no AI-generated follow-up questions based on individual responses
  • No mention of automated response quality scoring or auto-generated reports summarizing donor narratives

Jotform

Donor Feedback Survey Form Template

A form-builder template well-suited to quick collection of donor feedback with Jotform's drag-and-drop customization. It's a static form structure, so every donor sees the same fixed set of questions regardless of their answers.

What it does well

  • Easy drag-and-drop customization within Jotform's form builder
  • Simple, familiar form format for donors to complete quickly

Where it falls short

  • Static form fields only — no adaptive AI follow-up interview to explore the story behind a rating
  • No voice AI interview or guided task/screen-share capability
  • No automated per-response quality scoring or auto-generated analysis report
