51 Giveffect Testimonials

"For Sisters Achieving Excellence, Giveffect has been a refreshing move for philanthropy. We are not a traditional organization, and the population we serve is certainly not traditional. Giveffect allows us to reach out to a new group of philanthropists, ones who are truly interested in changing the world we live in."

"The system is affordable, which is great for a small agency like ours. We are now paying less and getting more for our hard earned money."

"The best part is the closure. The Giveffect experience is all about letting donors know what happened with their donation. This means organizations, like ours, can maintain a deep and lasting relationship with individuals long after the campaign is over."

"With our previous software, we’d spent hours on hours to make an event website, then we’d put stuff into the CRM and it would always mess up. With Giveffect, the final test was to see if our 70 year old CFO was able to run with Giveffect - that’s when we knew it would be very good!"

"Every time I get an offline donation, when I log the cheque into the database, I could see our supporter's whole history. I could see if they volunteered or donated in the past. It's the main thing our Habitat really appreciates about Giveffect. I can thank them and say, Thanks! You gave and you volunteered at our construction site or our reStore! It's fantastic that I can do that so easily and make each message so personalized."

"One thing I like about Giveffect is that they're willing to work in program with us. It makes things easier."

"Giveffect is very easy to use and have used it to manage many of our fundraising campaigns. We have found the Tech Support at Giveffect have been very helpful when we have needed them. We would recommend!"

"Giveffect has made a huge difference in the way that we fundraise. Setting up a campaign page is super simple, and has made purchasing tickets to our events so easy for our donors. The support from Giveffect is also awesome! Tech support always gets back to you quickly, and will work through a problem with you until you've figured it out. We love Giveffect!"

"The Giveffect webinars have helped me discover effective components that will help in our fundraising efforts. Not only is the software user-friendly, but, if a question comes up, the staff at Giveffect quickly provides information. I really appreciate the "Chat with us" feature and the tutorials."

“The system was antiquated and old, and it wasn’t able to do what we needed it to do.”

"Last year we used Kintera Sphere, 550 student volunteers raised $268,000. This year we used Giveffect, 420 volunteers raised $267,000. We fundraised about the same amount with 130 fewer students! We found that Giveffect's ease of access and use increased the funds we raised per student - up about $150 more compared to what they had raised with Kintera Sphere. I truly believe that if we had the same number of student volunteers fundraising this year, we would easily exceed $300,000."

"We used a total of over eight software programs. And now we have it all in one. Giveffect allowed us to eliminate every single one of them and have everything in one site."

"Giveffect is a very efficient place to keep all of our donor contact information. Working at a non-profit, we utilize Giveffect to keep our donations organized, send out upcoming event invites, and manage our website. Giveffect has a very excellent support team that is always willing to answer questions for us in a very timely manner. Giveffect has helped our company thrive by keeping all of our important data and contact information secure."

"Giveffect has helped me on numerous occasions. I don't even have to pick up the phone. Their online chat is super quick and easy. This is one of the only companies I know that utilize the live chat feature in such a productive and efficient manner. You have made the transitions easier and it's great to know that you are there during the day."

“During Covid-19 we had about an 85 percent decrease in volunteer efforts in covid, but we had to still schedule out real projects that were on the books. We still have to coordinate our build schedule, which was put behind. And it’s not just the professional labor but the volunteer labor that’s impacted. It’s a unique challenge to have to coordinate all these aspects.”
