165 OneCause Testimonials

“Whether attendees bid on silent auctions items or previewed the live auction, having all the information they need in one place helps provide an exceptional guest experience. OneCause was so easy to navigate, it was very helpful."

“We wanted to fully use the mobile platform, Our goal was to weave competitive bidding and giving throughout the event, to engage more donors.”

"There’s no other way to classify this first-year event than as a huge success, We’ve certainly gained a group of engaged supporters that were previously unfamiliar with the work United Way is doing for the Austin community.”

“Our gala is our biggest revenue generator of the year. We have to have the event. Without it, we can’t fund tuition assistance, which 60% of our family rely on. To say we were freaking out in an understatement. But we divided and conquered - and made it happen. Anyone can do this.”

“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.”

“It was amazing to see the excitement and enthusiasm amongst our families online. Kids got involved at home telling parents to bid. It was the first time doing something like this and we might actually do something like this for another fundraiser in the future.”

“People were looking forward to the event, so we decided to go online and give people something to do! Lean on your supporters, they will help you out. And the technology lets people bid from their couch.”

"OneCause Support has been fantastic. They are so fast in answering questions and always get right to the point of what I'm needing."

“This is doing what we wanted it to do. People are still signing the petition which helps place pressure on authorities to take action and bring about long-overdue justice for Emmett. The campaign is keeping a steady drum-beat that the Foundation wanted in terms of pressure as they continue to try to bring long-overdue closure, action, and justice for Emmett Till.”

“When it all came about, we thought, okay, what are we going to do. What are we going to do to engage people and to get them excited to participate in our event, Or how are we going to have them watch for that matter.”

“Typically, we have 150 to 175 people in person, so for us to reach more than 700 people was such an eye opener. That’s why we will do a hybrid next year. It was history making for our organization.”

“The feedback we got afterwards about how smooth the show was, how professional it looked, and how well it flowed, set our donors at ease and made them feel confident about what we were trying to accomplish."

“We didn’t have the right solution. The event fell short of our vision, like many other events that tried to replicate their fundraising on a Zoom call. There was no engagement, no feeling of connection to the mission. It was like being on a webinar.”

“Personally, I really liked the way that the Virtual Event Center works. It was easy to configure; it was easy to set up.”

“Our community had gone through so much between the hurricanes, earthquakes, and now the pandemic to top it off. The island was put under a complete lockdown as of mid-March. We were stymied in our fundraising efforts and we also knew that the lack of physical activity and social isolation was hard on our students because of the lockdown.”
