Case Study: Dream Factory of Greater Kansas City achieves streamlined event management and a $2,000 fundraising boost with Greater Giving

Dream Factory of Greater Kansas City - Customer Case Study

Dream Factory of Greater Kansas City is a 100% volunteer organization that grants wishes to critically or chronically ill children. Producing its annual gala—which generates roughly 30% of the chapter’s fundraising—had become cumbersome due to paper-based record keeping, fragmented guest management, and the high cost of outsourced event management. Volunteers needed a simple, cost-effective system that was easy to learn and could consolidate event logistics, communications, and payments.

They selected Greater Giving’s event software to build an event website, manage guest registration and communications, and enable mobile bidding for the silent auction. The digital database streamlined check-in/check-out, sped volunteer training and data entry, and allowed on-the-spot emailing and texting. Extending mobile bidding by 30 minutes brought in an extra $2,000, record accuracy and reporting improved, and the organization eliminated the paper trail from sale to reporting.
