A GiveSmart Case Study
The Cheryl Lyn Welter Charitable Foundation, run by a single volunteer, needed to raise $37,000 to begin providing grants for underprivileged students. Founder Harold Welter faced the challenge of optimizing his outreach with limited time and resources. He enlisted the support of GiveSmart to develop a multi-channel fundraising and communications strategy.
GiveSmart provided the tools and guidance, helping to set up a peer-to-peer fundraising page, online donation forms, and a text-to-donate keyword. By implementing this digital strategy, the foundation successfully raised over $38,000 from 194 donors, surpassing its initial goal. This enabled them to begin distributing grants and launch a new campaign to raise even more funds.
