165 OneCause Testimonials

“People weren’t there live onsite at the event, but our community wanted to help! They were all stuck at home looking for ways to support the auction. We actually came out ahead of last year and we were able to get up fast.”

“Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are chronic and, often times, debilitating diseases that you can’t see from the outside. The Virtual Event Center truly gave us and our volunteers a voice and a platform to speak out about what they’re going through."

“We really liked switching to mobile bidding for our spring event. We knew our crowd was mobile and everyone was on their phones, so Text2Give would let us connect with even more donors. It also would bring excitement to the donation appeal at the end of the luncheon."

"As the person who handles reservations, seating, check-in process, donations, and reconciliation, the software has been a complete and total game changer."

“Being able to keep an eye on all events from my office or home using OneCause has created valuable opportunities for CCA."

"OneCause has made it easy to customize and personalize giving pages. We're able to drive more year-round engagement from supporters and reach a whole new group of donors with social media sharing."

"My favorite part of the mobile bidding experience was the auction management system. It was so much easier to track our auction solicitations and package items. Check-in and check-out were also a breeze."

“Since our auction items were not just event specific, we really appreciate that OneCause enables us to sell them at any time via our Giving Center event website."

“The mood was pretty high after the live appeal, so we didn’t want to sour it with a tedious checkout, With OneCause, checkout was flawless. We received only good comments from all the people who attended and volunteered at the event.”

“We were adding events and growing fast. The Chicago Change for Charley event exploded. They raised $320,000– far exceeding the $50,000 they hoped to raise at this first-time event; Houston’s Believe in Brady also far-surpassed its goals, and other cities wanted to come online. OneCause DIY allowed us to use the same tools in each city to ensure success.”

“I followed our event manager everywhere in New York. I was his shadow. Then I trained a crew of rock star volunteers in Chicago, all by myself, and they in turn trained the army of newbies that night The system is so simple. I had everything I needed for a smooth event. The Chicago volunteers told me how easy it was basically dummy proof.”

“The software is really easy to use. We swipe a credit card when guests check in, they use their smart phones to keep up with the auction, and check out simply involves a text notice to guests about the items they won and where to pick them up."

“Clip boards and loose leaf paper are not conducive to raising a lot of money. OneCause’s mobile bidding software and event management capabilities have played a large role in the event’s current success.”

"I love it. I’ve been promoting that to everyone I’ve talked to since. In the 90’s we would’ve called it a paradigm shift to go with something that’s a dedicated peer-to-peer tool and not an all-in-one system more of a best of breed approach. That is going to be more and more important for nonprofits large and small to go back to a world of best in breed, rather than the kind of jack of all trade mentality. It’s how we operate in the real world."

“We didn’t lose anything we had planned [and] our virtual event delivered what we wanted for our in-person event. Our development team is a team of two. Anybody can do this.”
