About ControlShift

What is this tool?

This is a new project from Bread for the World that allows you to start, run and deliver your own campaign on Bread related advocacy issues, with the technology you need at your fingertips.

What can I run a campaign on?

We ask that you run a campaign on Bread related advocacy issues. You can find out more about our current advocacy issues here.

When starting a campaign the most important step is to get the ball rolling - don't worry about getting everything 100% right. Even experienced, professional campaigners make mistakes and often change tack as things develop. You don't need to be an expert to launch a campaign, you just need to be willing to learn new things along the way.

What can't I campaign on?

We expect that you will utilize this tool for Bread related advocacy campaigns only.

We reserve the right to use our judgment and take something down if it crosses a line of common decency, so take responsibility for your campaign.

How do you decide which campaigns go on the homepage?

A number of factors contribute to what campaigns are highlighted on the homepage. These include campaigns that are on the edge of winning, campaigns that have shown rapid growth and campaigns that are particularly timely.

What is your privacy policy?

These things take up a lot of space, so please read our privacy policy in full.

Who controls the data on the site?

While you are able to email your supporters through the website, privacy laws prevent us from sharing your supporters' email addresses with you. The data collected on and through the site will remain our property.

I no longer wish to receive updates on a campaign I signed up to. How do I unsubscribe?
