Case Study: United Way of Santa Cruz County achieves thousands of dollars in savings and faster check deposits with DH Corporation

Remote deposit saves nonprofit agency thousands of dollars

United Way of Santa Cruz County was struggling with a slow, costly, and labor-intensive paper check deposit process that tied up staff time and reduced funds available for programs. CFO Karen Sullivan evaluated options and chose DH Corporation’s remote deposit service (remote deposit capture) to automate and streamline check processing.

DH Corporation’s remote deposit solution lets staff scan checks once and submit them electronically, eliminating photocopying and bank trips. The agency now deposits more than 100 checks in about 30 minutes, posts funds within 24 hours, reduced deposits from daily to once a week, and pays only a few cents per check (never more than about $24/month), saving the nonprofit many thousands of dollars that can be redirected into community programs.
