Case Study: The Joe Nuxhall Miracle League Fields exceeds its $1M matching goal with Bloomerang AI strategist Penny

Exceeded $1 million match with Bloomerang’s AI strategist, Penny

The Joe Nuxhall Miracle League Fields, a nonprofit serving athletes with physical and developmental disabilities in Fairfield, Ohio, faced a major fundraising challenge: raising $1 million on a tight deadline to unlock a $1 million matching gift for its capital campaign. With only one permanent staff member, Executive Director Tyler Bradshaw needed a way to quickly identify the right donors and build confidence in major gift asks. Bloomerang and its AI strategist, Penny, were brought in to help guide the effort.

Using Bloomerang’s Penny, the team analyzed donor capacity, prepared for donor meetings, drafted campaign messaging, and created board-ready donor research to focus outreach more strategically. The result was a major success: Joe Nuxhall Miracle League Fields exceeded the match, raising 125% of its goal and a total of $2.25 million. Bloomerang helped the organization move from guesswork to precision, giving Bradshaw the confidence to secure larger gifts and achieve the campaign’s goal.
