Case Study: EarthRights International achieves nearly $25K people-powered crowdfunding to fund human-rights films with CauseVox

EarthRights International - Customer Case Study

EarthRights International (ERI) is an activist law organization that documents and litigates corporate human rights and environmental abuses. Wanting to amplify survivors’ stories through a series of short films and training curricula, ERI faced a funding challenge: they wanted the campaign to be supported “by the people” rather than by foundations or corporate sponsors, so they needed a platform that would let them reach individual donors directly.

ERI chose CauseVox for its design control and for customizable individual fundraiser pages, which staff and supporters used to make personal outreach. The campaign grew from an initial $15,000 goal to $25,000 as participation increased; ERI ultimately raised $24,532 and connected with film producer Gillian Caldwell, securing the resources and expertise needed to complete the project.
