165 OneCause Testimonials

"Over the last 5 years, we’ve increased the number of donors 146% and grown our donations by 147%. I absolutely attribute that growth to peer-to-peer and Ambassador Fundraising.”

"OneCause and their DIY mobile bidding offering helped us with registration, bidding, and made check-out a breeze for bid winners, Typically, we have to do check-out manually, which takes at least 30 minutes as we have to collect bidder sheets and determine whether an individual won more than one item. This year, check-out was ready as soon as the mobile bidding ended, and we were able to keep the auction open for longer, ultimately bringing in more donations.”

“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."

"The advancement team felt a duty to empower and aid our school and community in the midst of COVID-19 and in the altered fundraising reality we are living in for the time being. We wanted to make sure our we didn’t stop fundraising and host events virtually in the spring of 2020 and into 2021.”

“We consider ourselves pretty fortunate. All of our large fundraising events had been completed. But it painted a difficult picture for what the next year was going to look like."

We knew that we had key constituents that wanted, and needed, to be involved with HRC. After cancelling all in-person galas, peer-to-peer fundraising seemed to be the immediate next step. We needed to engage these social fundraisers."

"We’ve used OneCause Mobile Bidding for our annual gala, but we had never thought about executing a peer-to-peer fundraising event. The opportunity presented itself, and OneCause Peer-to-Peer had all the features that would excite our donor base and reach them in a virtual world.”

"The problem was that we had really great ideas about different campaigns and virtual adaptations, but we didn’t have a clue how to execute them. So, we turned to OneCause."

"Amanda started an Autism Skates event with her skating club in 2014, where she became engaged with the autism community. When she hosted the second event in 2016, Alyssa and her brother were participants and it was the beginning of a beautiful partnership.”

“I had put my heart and soul into this event. We knew there was no way we would let all the hard work that our team put into this go by."

“We don’t spend much in the way of advertising, since we’d rather have funds directly benefit the charity. So, our team had to figure out how we were going to spread the word without media partners.”

“OneCause provided a turn-key solution with tried-and-true templates and case studies so we wouldn’t have to start from scratch. The interface is very intuitive and allows for easy customization down to the details."

"What did I feel in the moment we switched virtual. Uncertain, but confident we could do it. Most of our items were in the OneCause Mobile Bidding product so it was really making a checklist of the key fundraising elements that we needed to adapt to the virtual mold."

"We were doing our research on what other nonprofits were doing, and we were trying to find the right virtual fit for our organization. There’s so much virtual content out there, and we wanted to stand out and do this thing right.”

"Don’t be afraid of the what-ifs with a virtual event. Across the world, people are looking for ways to help and do something good. We saw that at our event, and because of our success, we are going to turn this virtual event into an annual fundraiser.”
