Case Study: Summit Assistance Dogs achieves $35,000 more in virtual fundraising with CauseVox

Summit Assistance Dog’s Wildly Successful Virtual Luncheon On CauseVox

Summit Assistance Dogs, a nonprofit that pairs mobility service dogs with people living with disabilities, faced a major challenge in 2020 when COVID-19 forced it to cancel its annual Unleash Your Love luncheon and quickly move its largest fundraiser online. The organization turned to CauseVox for a virtual peer-to-peer fundraising platform to replace the in-person event and keep donor engagement strong.

Using CauseVox, Summit Assistance Dogs built a customized virtual campaign with fundraiser templates, donation forms, updates, video, and a live program hub that helped table captains and supporters participate easily. The campaign raised $185,000, exceeded its $175,000 goal, unlocked a $25,000 match, spent $50,000 less than the prior year, and netted over $35,000 more than its 2019 event, boosting ROI to 1617%.
