Case Study: Our Lady of the Holy Spirit achieves clear ROI and capital campaign success with FundRaiser Software

Our Lady of the Holy Spirit - Customer Case Study

Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, a large historic Catholic spiritual center operating on a tight budget, needed clearer visibility into the return on investment for its fundraising—particularly for newsletters, retreats, and special events—while being run by a single development staff member. The challenge was tracking where donations came from, the true cost of outreach, and which efforts were worth continuing.

By using FundRaiser Software’s Campaign Management to mark reply envelopes, log expenses, and set up campaign sub-events, the center could track donations and attendee responses in detail. This produced clear ROI data, enabled targeted follow-ups and smarter mailing decisions, revealed reliance on repeat donors, and helped the center meet its capital campaign goal while planning more effective future outreach.
