Case Study: Junior Achievement of Greater Washington achieves $500,000 in annual Bowl-a-Thon fundraising with CauseVox

How Junior Achievement of Greater Washington Used A Creative Corporate Engagement Fundraiser To Raise $500,000

Junior Achievement of Greater Washington teaches financial literacy and workplace skills to more than 70,000 K–12 students in the D.C. area, but running programs at that scale requires roughly $4.5 million a year. To help fundraise, the organization runs 20–25 corporate Bowl-a-Thons annually, each raising between $4,000 and $65,000, and needed a user-friendly platform to manage registration, reporting, and dozens of simultaneous peer-to-peer campaigns.

They adopted CauseVox to streamline participant registration, provide real-time reporting for corporate partners, and deploy custom features like a consolidated leaderboard across events. The platform’s ease of use and hands-on support helped Junior Achievement raise about $500,000 annually through its Bowl-a-Thons while simplifying campaign management and improving corporate engagement.
