Math Circles of Chicago - Customer Case Study

Math Circles of Chicago, a nonprofit that brings advanced math learning to Chicago students in grades 5–12, needed an effective way to boost fundraising and engagement for Illinois’ statewide Giving Day (#ILGive 2016). They turned to Bonterra GiveGab and used the GiveGab platform to streamline outreach, enlist board members and faculty as advocates, and deliver personalized appeals to their community.

Using Bonterra GiveGab’s GiveGab platform and a mix of email and social media (Facebook proved most effective), Math Circles of Chicago raised over $21,000 from 241 donors on #ILGive 2016—surpassing their annual fundraising goal by 50% and giving them the confidence to plan program expansion.
