Case Study: Spinal CSF Leak Foundation raises 6x more with CauseVox

The Duradash Activity Challenge Raises 6x More With CauseVox

Spinal CSF Leak Foundation, a young nonprofit focused on awareness and support for people affected by spinal cerebrospinal fluid leaks, was looking for a better way to run its annual Duradash fundraiser. The organization had little experience with online or peer-to-peer fundraising and had historically raised about $5,000 through an in-person race-style event, so it turned to CauseVox and its peer-to-peer fundraising platform for help.

With CauseVox, Spinal CSF Leak Foundation launched a virtual activity challenge that let supporters create fundraising pages and track flexible activity goals in minutes instead of miles. The campaign drew 40 fundraisers, including one volunteer who raised over $13,000, and lifted Duradash fundraising to more than $30,000 overall — about 6x the foundation’s previous total — while keeping costs low and improving ease of use for both staff and donors.
