Case Study: Bailey House boosts fundraising and streamlines auction management with Greater Giving

Bailey House raises $800K and cuts reporting to 24 hours with Greater Giving

Bailey House, a nonprofit providing housing and services to people living with HIV and AIDS, faced significant challenges managing its annual auction fundraiser. Their event manager was frustrated by the manual process of tracking donations and bidder numbers with spreadsheets, which led to slow checkout and a lengthy post-event reconciliation process. To solve this, they turned to Greater Giving and implemented its Event Software.

Greater Giving's Event Software streamlined the entire auction process, from catalog creation to on-site payment collection with Auctionpay terminals. The packaging feature was particularly impactful, allowing them to bundle certificates to sell for significantly higher values. Using Greater Giving's solution resulted in a record-breaking $800,000 raised for their 20th Annual Auction. It also improved staff morale and slashed the accounting department's reporting time from days to just 24 hours.
