Case Study: Medical University of South Carolina Foundation exceeds fundraising goals and streamlines multi-department events with Greater Giving Event Software

Medical University of South Carolina - Customer Case Study

The Medical University of South Carolina Foundation, which raises funds for education, research and patient care at MUSC, faced inefficiencies from a patchwork of event-management tools. Their PC-based software required on‑site access via a private network, caused version-control problems, and left multiple departments reliant on a single webmaster; they also wanted mobile bidding and a user-friendly, scalable solution for their large Gourmet & Grapes weekend, which supplies about half of the department’s annual fundraising.

They implemented Greater Giving’s cloud-based event software to centralize fundraising, enable remote work, support many simultaneous users, and let staff build ticketing and sponsorship pages themselves. In its first year the foundation surpassed its fundraising goal by more than $10,000; teams gained real‑time data access, reduced dependence on the webmaster, streamlined processes across departments, and found the system intuitive to learn and use.
