Case Study: EMERGE125 surpasses annual appeal goal with Bloomerang

Surpassing its annual appeal goal at 131% with Bloomerang

EMERGE125, an arts and culture nonprofit serving the Harlem community of New York City, was struggling with disconnected fundraising tools and scattered data across multiple systems and spreadsheets. The team needed a better way to manage donor information, ticketing activity, and engagement records so they could reduce manual work and support free or low-cost student arts programs more effectively.

With Bloomerang’s Giving Platform, EMERGE125 unified donations, ticketing, forms, reporting, and email workflows in one connected system. Bloomerang helped the organization improve data accuracy, streamline reporting, and strengthen supporter engagement, leading to an annual appeal result of 131% of goal, a 40% donor retention rate, and a doubling of email subscribers.
