A GiveSmart Case Study
Birch Family Services, a nonprofit supporting individuals with autism and developmental disabilities, faced a challenge when the COVID-19 pandemic prevented their usual in-person fundraising event for their 45th anniversary. They needed a virtual alternative to raise crucial funds and celebrate this milestone, turning to GiveSmart for a solution.
GiveSmart provided an Event Page that served as a hub for the 45-day virtual campaign, featuring text-to-donate and peer-to-peer fundraising tools. The solution included easily shareable email and social templates for supporters. This approach helped Birch Family Services raise over $366,000, far surpassing their goals. The peer-to-peer fundraising alone generated over $83,000, significantly increasing engagement and helping the organization reach new donors.
