🌡️ When the AC goes out in Texas in August, right before school starts, there is no time to wait.

One Texas school faced a major challenge when their entire air-conditioning system failed just days before students were scheduled to return. The repair cost was $42,000, and the need was urgent.

So they made the fundraiser simple, visible, and personal.

🚗 Parents saw driveway signs with QR codes during school-supply pickup.

🎒 Students wore name tags at Meet the Teacher Night that said:
“Scan me and keep me cool.”
The result?
💥 $48,000 raised in just 3 days
💥 The goal was exceeded before the first bell rang

This is what happens when a community understands the need, sees who it helps, and has an easy way to give.

For schools, nonprofits, churches, and community organizations, the lesson is clear: fundraising works best when it is simple, personal, and easy to act on.

Want to make giving easier for your supporters?

Our fundraising software helps schools and nonprofits create simple, effective campaigns with:

✅ Flat-rate pricing — we never take a percentage of donations
✅ A dedicated giving page you can use anytime
✅ Text-to-give for fast, easy donations
✅ QR codes that connect donors directly to your campaign
✅ Peer-to-peer fundraising so supporters can create personal giving pages and share them with family and friends

You do not have to wait for an emergency to start building generosity. With the right tools, you can create giving opportunities all year long.

Want to Raise More Money at Your Next Fundraising Event?

Sometimes raising more money isn't about finding more donors. It's about making it easier for the donors you already have to give.

Paddle raises create an exciting giving experience by removing barriers. Guests simply raise their paddle, your auction team records the donation, and the auction software processes everything automatically.

Meanwhile, a live donation scoreboard keeps the energy high as everyone watches the impact grow together.

When giving is simple, generosity follows.

Have you ever participated in a paddle raise? What made it memorable?

08/06/2026

One great auction item. Two winning bids. $17,000 each.

Did you know that the right live auction strategy can dramatically increase your fundraising revenue?

In this auction, our auctioneer Louis Murad sold the same live auction item twice, generating $34,000 from a single package. When the excitement is high and multiple bidders want the same experience, offering a duplicate item can create even more energy while maximizing your fundraising potential.

This simple strategy can help your nonprofit:
· Raise more money
· Keep bidding competitive
· Build excitement throughout your event
· Increase your live auction revenue

What would happen if one grant your nonprofit depends on wasn't renewed?

Too many organizations rely heavily on grants, leaving them vulnerable when funding priorities change. A stronger strategy is to build multiple streams of revenue, including long-term corporate partnerships.

Corporate partners don't just provide sponsorships. They can become advocates, volunteers, donors, event supporters, and ambassadors for your mission.

As Kirt Manecke says:
"Grants should be considered icing on the cake, not your main source of funding."

Our latest blog in the comment below, shares practical ideas to help nonprofits create more financial stability while building stronger relationships with local businesses and community partners.

What are your thoughts?

07/30/2026

Ever feel like your nonprofit is playing Whack a Mole Marketing and constantly chasing the next marketing trend?

One week it's a new social media platform. The next week it's a new software. Then someone tells you to post more videos. Before long, you're doing a little bit of everything, but not seeing the results you hoped for.

The most successful nonprofits don't rely on "whack-a-mole" marketing or throw ideas against the wall to see what sticks. They build intentional campaigns with clear goals, consistent messaging, and a strategy that supports their mission.

When all your marketing activities work together, your audience is more likely to remember you, trust you, and take action.

Does your organization follow a marketing strategy, or do you find yourself reacting to trends as they come along? We'd love to hear your thoughts!
