Case Study: Berklee College of Music achieves rapid emergency relief fundraising during COVID-19 with iDonate

Berklee College of Music boosts digital giving 300% with iDonate

Berklee College of Music, a world-renowned music institute, faced a significant challenge when the COVID-19 pandemic forced the closure of its campus. Students were suddenly displaced and faced financial hardship from lost housing, meal plans, and on-campus jobs. The school needed to rapidly raise emergency funds to support them. Berklee turned to the fundraising tools provided by iDonate to address this urgent need.

Using iDonate's platform, Berklee was able to quickly create and track a dedicated emergency campaign. This solution allowed the school to effectively communicate with donors and accept donations, which were used for housing refunds, paying student workers, and providing emergency grants. As a result, Berklee experienced a more than 300% increase in digital giving over the previous year, enabling them to provide timely relief to their students.
