Case Study: The Franciscan School exceeds its silent auction goal and turns its spring fundraiser into profit with OneCause

The Franciscan School - Customer Case Study

The Franciscan School, a K–8 Catholic school of over 660 students, needed to maximize proceeds from just two annual fundraisers to support its programs. Lori Moscato, a parent volunteer who had successfully used OneCause before, proposed using OneCause’s online auction/fundraising platform to streamline the school’s Fall event and reduce the burden on volunteers and event costs.

Using OneCause, Lori assembled nearly 90 auction packages and ran a nine-day online-only auction featuring teacher-donated experiences. The campaign raised 94% of the silent auction value, exceeded the silent auction goal by $5,000, and eliminated event expenses (tickets, food, decorations) so the Spring fundraiser will be pure profit — outcomes Lori attributes to the ease and effectiveness of OneCause.
