Last updated: June 2, 2026

Overview

WeGive uses Beefree, a powerful drag-and-drop email editor, to help you create beautiful, responsive emails without any coding knowledge. Whether you're sending donation receipts, campaign updates, or event invitations, the Beefree editor makes it easy to design professional emails that look great on every device.

Getting Started

When you open the email editor in WeGive, you'll be working inside the Beefree builder. Here's how to get started:

  1. Choose a template or start from scratch — Select from one of the available templates or begin with a blank canvas.

  2. Drag and drop content blocks — Add text, images, buttons, dividers, and more by dragging them into your email layout.

  3. Customize your design — Click on any element to edit its content, colors, fonts, spacing, and alignment.

  4. Preview and test — Use the preview option to see how your email will look on desktop and mobile before sending.

Key Features

  • Responsive design — Emails automatically adapt to look great on desktops, tablets, and phones.

  • Content blocks — Use pre-built blocks for text, images, buttons, social icons, video, HTML, and more.

  • Row and column layouts — Structure your email with flexible row and column arrangements.

  • Saved rows — Save reusable content sections to speed up future email creation.

  • Mobile design settings — Fine-tune how your email displays specifically on mobile devices.

Tips for Great Emails

  • Keep your subject line clear and concise.

  • Use a single, prominent call-to-action button.

  • Optimize images for fast loading — avoid overly large file sizes.

  • Always preview your email on both desktop and mobile before sending.
