PS 150 exceeds fundraising goals by 105% with OneCause

PS 150, an elementary school in Manhattan, faced the sudden challenge of pivoting its crucial annual spring gala to a virtual format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With only days to transform their main fundraiser, the school needed a solution to engage their community and meet their financial goals remotely. They turned to OneCause and utilized its mobile bidding technology and virtual fundraising platform.

With OneCause, PS 150 executed a successful virtual gala featuring pre-event fundraising, silent and live auctions streamed via Zoom, and strategic text messaging. The solution fostered surprising community engagement and exceeded expectations. The results were outstanding: they surpassed their fundraising goal by 105%, raising $84,000 in donations and an additional $81,000 through their silent auction, demonstrating the powerful impact of the OneCause platform.
