Case Study: Make-A-Wish Arizona surpasses its $2.7M goal with OneCause

How Make-A-Wish Arizona Surpassed Their $2.7M Goal with the OneCause Fundraising Platform

Make-A-Wish Arizona needed a better way to run a major fundraising event and reach ambitious goals, including smoother check-in, sponsorship management, auctions, and post-event follow-up. The organization turned to OneCause and its Fundraising Platform to help streamline the process and support a large-scale campaign.

With OneCause, Make-A-Wish Arizona improved check-in times, managed live auction bidding in real time, and used text reminders to boost participation and item pickup. The event surpassed its $2.7M goal, and the live auction alone raised nearly $350,000. OneCause also simplified reconciliation and CRM integration, helping reduce missing data and outstanding collections.
