Case Study: University Heights Tool Library achieves streamlined volunteer management and easier fundraising with Bonterra GiveGab

University Heights Tool Library found the Volunteer Management they were looking for with GiveGab

University Heights Tool Library, a nonprofit that equips residents to drive neighborhood change, was struggling with managing frequent volunteer opportunities—high subscription fees, scheduling logistics, and tracking hours—and had never used an online fundraising platform. They chose Bonterra GiveGab for volunteer management and project-based fundraising to address these challenges.

Bonterra GiveGab delivered an easy-to-build volunteer management and fundraising solution that lets volunteers log hours, simplifies scheduling, and supports small campaigns tied to neighborhood needs. The platform streamlined management of 45 University at Buffalo students across 30+ events, reduced admin time, and produced measurable impact: 1,110 hours logged across 31 opportunities, lower fees, and faster campaign setup, enabling more tree plantings, park cleanups, and community projects.
