Case Study: Sustain Charlotte exceeds fundraising goals with Neon One

Sustain Charlotte raises $101,700 and beats fundraising goals by 13% with Neon One

Sustain Charlotte, an environmental nonprofit advocating for sustainable growth and transportation in Charlotte, NC, faced significant challenges with their previous fundraising platform, Race Roster. The platform was difficult to use, lacked modern design, and offered poor branding customization. Most critically, it did not integrate with their CRM, forcing staff to manually sync donor data—a time-consuming and error-prone process that diverted focus from donor engagement.

By implementing Neon One's Neon Fundraise platform, which seamlessly integrates with their Neon CRM, Sustain Charlotte automated data transfer and gained sleek, customizable fundraising pages. This solution directly contributed to a record-breaking year; for their 2024 Biketoberfest event, they exceeded their fundraising goal by 13%, raising $101,700 and achieving a 49.6% increase in donations from the previous year. Neon One provided the tools to streamline operations and significantly amplify their impact.
