Case Study: Merakey raises funds with OneCause Peer-to-Peer fundraising

How Peer-to-Peer Fundraising Cultivated a Connected Network

Merakey Foundation needed a safe, engaging way to replace its canceled annual bowling tournament during COVID-19 while still raising funds for the people it serves. To do that, Merakey turned to OneCause and its Peer-to-Peer Solution for the foundation’s first-ever virtual 5K fundraiser.

OneCause helped Merakey launch the event in a format that could reach supporters nationwide and fit the constraints of the pandemic. The virtual 5K created a successful new fundraising option, helping Merakey make up for missed in-person events and strengthen engagement across its network, with the case study noting a fundraising increase.
