Case Study: Elevations Credit Union Buffalo Bicycle Classic raises more for scholarships with GiveSignup

Elevations Credit Union raises $3.4 million with GiveSignup

Elevations Credit Union Buffalo Bicycle Classic, a fundraising bike ride for the University of Colorado Boulder, faced the challenge of onboarding a new ride director and pivoting to a virtual event at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The organization needed a robust platform to manage this transition seamlessly while maintaining its critical fundraising efforts for student scholarships. They used the GiveSignup platform for registration, fundraising, and event management.

GiveSignup provided a comprehensive solution with features like virtual event support, a self-service knowledge base, and RaceDay QR code check-in. This allowed the event to not only continue during the pandemic but to thrive, resulting in zero operational expenses and the addition of eight new scholars that year. The measurable impact was significant, as the event has raised over $3.4 million to date for scholarships. GiveSignup's tools enabled efficient fundraising competitions and the integration of a permanent virtual ride option to expand their donor base.
