Case Study: Children's Hospital Foundation achieves centralized collaboration and app integration with Igloo Software

Childrens Hospital Foundation - Customer Case Study

Children’s Hospital Foundation, the fundraising arm of Children’s National Medical Center in Washington, DC, supports a premier pediatric care center that serves over 360,000 patients annually. Facing a distributed workforce and ambitious fundraising goals (from $45M to $90M), the foundation struggled with siloed communication—relying on email, meetings and paper—and found the hospital’s SharePoint intranet too complex and inflexible for their needs.

They implemented Igloo as a customizable, easy-to-use information portal and collaboration hub, integrating tools like Google Apps, Logi Analytics, Wufoo and single sign-on via Okta. The platform centralizes apps and documents, supports wikis and sub-communities, provides social analytics, and has driven strong engagement (about 80% of members active in 30 days and content generating 1,000+ views), improving collaboration, access and productivity across the organization.
