Case Study: Love Your Melon achieves nationwide Campus Crew scale and workflow automation with Copper

How Customizing Copper has Helped Love Your Melon Spread Their Mission

Love Your Melon, a nonprofit that donates hats to children battling cancer, needed a better way to manage its Campus Crew program—11,000 members across 700+ college campuses. Relying on Google Sheets and manual processes left them with inconsistent data, no analytics, and too much clerical work; they needed a flexible, Google-friendly CRM with strong automation to keep up with rapid change.

They chose Copper for its seamless Google Apps fit and worked with Copper’s success team to build Zapier and webhook integrations that turn Google Form submissions into Copper contacts, sync customers to Shopify for merchandise and credit tracking, and route requests into regionally tagged pipelines. The automations have saved hours per person, removed manual data entry for hundreds of Crews, helped coordinate 300+ Love Your Melon Day events, and supported the donation of over 10,000 hats.
