Case Study: Big Brothers Big Sisters of America achieves 2.5x more grant distribution with Asana

Big Brothers Big Sisters of America distributes 2.5x more grants with Asana

Big Brothers Big Sisters of America (BBBSA), the largest youth mentoring organization in the U.S., was managing grants, reporting, and compliance with spreadsheets, email, and chat across its national office and local agencies. As its Foundation Grants and Federal Grants teams grew, BBBSA needed better visibility, standard workflows, and a more reliable way to meet deadlines and coordinate work.

BBBSA implemented Asana to centralize grant information, templates, timelines, risk tracking, and reporting in one platform, with integrations for SharePoint and Outlook. With Asana, the organization cut grant reporting time by 80%, spent 50% less time starting new grant projects, grew funding by 50%, and now distributes 2.5x more grants each year without increasing staffing.
