Case Study: Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association streamlines volunteer and donor management with VOMO

Largest state organic organization streamlines volunteer and donor management

Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA), the oldest and largest state organic organization in the U.S., needed a better way to manage volunteers and donor engagement for its programs, especially the Common Ground Country Fair. Before using VOMO, MOFGA relied on manual, paper-based processes to track more than 1,600 volunteers, handle over 10,000 shifts for the three-day event, and analyze supporter interactions.

VOMO helped MOFGA streamline volunteer management with customizable landing pages, easier sign-up and check-in, and better data sharing after integrating with Virtuous CRM and RaiseDonors. In the first year, MOFGA registered over 1,600 volunteers and recorded nearly 20,000 volunteer hours, representing an estimated $440,000 in economic impact, while also reducing staff workload and improving the volunteer experience.
