  • With our previous fundraising software, it didn't have the ability to handle galas. It was great to be able to use GiveSmart to build the silent and live auctions, sell tickets, assign bidder numbers, sell items, etc.
  • Managing recurring donations is easy! It's nice to get the monthly reminder that someone has donated so we make sure to say thank you a few times a year.
  • We are considering adding a Fun Run as a fundraising opportunity, and it's great to have the peer-to-peer option for that.

  • For the Virtual Gala we hosted during the pandemic, we created a "virtual gala pass" available for free for our guests to pick up, and advertised for our guests the importance of obtaining that prior to our event. This effort allowed us to get a very accurate count at the end of our event, comparing who picked up the pass and who actually joined us - it was within 10 guests. The pass seemed to be what we needed to motivate our guests to actively indicate their intention to participate with us - and then show up. It also allowed our guests who were not attending one of our micro events or sponsoring us to easily register for the Silent Auction and be ready for bidding at the event.
  • During the pandemic we were able to leverage GiveSmart to host a series of virtual micro events as part of our larger Virtual Gala effort.
