Challenge
A top tier university hosts a ‘#DayofSupport’ fundraiser every May. A component of the campaign is to ask alumni, staff, faculty, and parents to volunteer as fundraisers to support specific programs. Finding an easy way to set up university crowdfunding pages and manage their donors was a struggle until they came across MobileCause.
Solution
MobileCause supported this university in creating individual pages for each fundraiser to share with friends and family. The crowdfunding captains, those tasked with running an individual campaign, found setting up the university crowdfunding pages surprisingly easy. After meticulously creating and testing the pages, they were ready for the event. Leading up to the #DayofSupport, donations were captured and donor data was recorded.
Impact
From the get go, the university crowdfunding was very successful. The campaign was getting close to its fundraising goal days prior to the event! The event acted as a final push to reach their fundraising goal which they easily succeeded in collecting. This campaign generated over $55,000 from volunteer fundraisers with over 400 donations from friends of the university and an average donation amount of $130.
