Case Study: Lincoln Park Community Services shatters fundraising goals with OneCause virtual fundraising

Lincoln Park Community Services raises $197,387 and beats goal by 123% with OneCause

Lincoln Park Community Services (LPCS) faced the challenge of pivoting its crucial annual spring gala to a virtual format due to social distancing requirements. To achieve this, they partnered with the vendor OneCause, utilizing its Online Fundraising platform to recreate their in-person fundraising activities in a digital space.

With OneCause, LPCS executed a donation-only virtual event featuring a paddle raise and a livestream. Their strategic approach included robust donor communication and mission-focused programming. The results were exceptional: they received over 340 donations, raised $197,387 (reaching 123% of their goal), and saw a 40% increase in funds raised compared to the prior year's in-person event.
