Case Study: Kids’ Chance of Nebraska drives fundraising and awareness with GolfStatus

Kids’ Chance of Nebraska raises $40,000+ yearly with GolfStatus

Kids’ Chance of Nebraska, a nonprofit providing scholarships to children affected by workplace accidents, faced significant administrative challenges with its annual golf fundraiser. As the event grew, its volunteer-run board was overwhelmed by manual processes involving paper forms, checks, and spreadsheets for registration and payment tracking. This administrative burden became a barrier to growth, especially when they sought to add a second event. They turned to the vendor GolfStatus for a solution using its golf event management platform.

By implementing GolfStatus, the organization streamlined online registration and payment processing, eliminating manual work. The platform also managed sponsorships, teams, and pairings, and provided event websites. This efficiency allowed volunteers to focus on promotion and mission-building. As a result, GolfStatus helped Kids’ Chance of Nebraska grow its flagship tournament to 150 golfers, generating $30,000, and launch a second TopGolf event that raises an additional $10,000. Combined, the events now fund more than three times the number of scholarships than before.
