“The ease of integration with our database is part of what makes it so powerful”

GiveCampus makes it easy for me as a volunteer manager to work with over one hundred volunteers, and I’m in the system on nearly a daily basis. My volunteers love how easy GiveCampus is to use. They especially like the notifications they receive when someone in their group makes a donation … The features that GiveCampus offers are useful and the platform definitely makes donor engagement efficient and, at the same time, meaningful and personal.

“I’m on GiveCampus every day!”

I inherited a contract with GiveCampus and wasn’t sure how to use the product and all the various functionalities. [The GiveCampus] team went above and beyond to make sure we got up to speed and helped us customize a great giving day social campaign. The support has also helped us learn to use all the modules we have access to—thanks for being so responsive, GC team! Once you learn the system, it is easy to use. I’m on GiveCampus every day!

“The tech is great, but the people make the difference.”

The best part of GiveCampus has been the support. Among all the various vendors we have partnered with in my time as a fundraiser, the team at GiveCampus have always been the most ready to work beside us. Their product team is constantly striving to improve platforms, they offer key support on donor challenge days, and work to make implementation a breeze. The tech is great, but the people make the difference.

“… a much more pleasant experience for both donors and for financial staff”

Responsive people in every department; great customer service; extremely easy to use, both for staff and the donor. Quick to implement when we first started, and it’s been a great experience since … The switch to GC not only provided us with the ability to brand our giving forms the way that we wanted to, but also created a much more pleasant experience for both donors and for financial staff in terms of reporting.

“GiveCampus is a Great Partner”

Every time we’ve raised an issue, the support team has passed it along to the product development group and the team is great about implementing new features suggested by clients. GiveCampus is the best crowdfunding software we have ever had. It’s quick and easy to set up a campaign and really helps with our acquisition of new donors.

“GiveCampus is exceptional!”

Their tech support is so good and so fast, and they are also open to suggestions on how they can change and improve the platform. They take our feedback as users seriously and that means a lot … I love the new smart appeals that make it easy to remind current donors about their giving anniversary. The new AI features are also great.

“GiveCampus has been a perfect partner for over 5 years”

The customer service is second to none. While building my giving day campaigns, I truly felt like my GiveCampus partner was working WITH me to make it a success, of which mine was theirs. GiveCampus has been a perfect partner for over 5 years now. GiveCampus allows me to coordinate online fundraising across an entire university’s worth of constituents and their fundraising needs.

“Fundraising and engaging our constituents is made easier everyday”

The platform is user friendly and intuitive for both back-end and front-end users. The customer service is bar none as reps. are always willing to listen, troubleshoot and share valuable insights. They take great care in ensuring all of their products and features are top-notch. GiveCampus is more than willing to work with and listen to their customers to make improvements and upgrades. Fundraising and engaging our constituents is made easier everyday because of GiveCampus.

“You can tell that they enjoy and are knowledgeable about what they do”

Your [PSM] helps you build strategies, looks over campaigns, and works with you so you get the most out of your GC products. Support responds quickly to questions or issues … There are regular webinars and GC updates designed for schools to delve deeper into GC products, build successful giving days, create a comprehensive marketing strategy for a campaign, and so much more. They even provide templates that you can use to create campaigns. They listen to your needs and ideas, constantly updating their products to give schools what they need.

“… reporting is easy and creates less headache on the back-end …”

First of all, the support team is amazing. I really like the ability to engage advocates and set up matches/challenges, as well as multiple campaign tiers. The reporting is easy and creates less headache on the back-end when we enter the gifts into our database. It’s also great that you can upload offline gifts that don’t eat into your subscription total. It’s the perfect solution to creating a community-wide day of giving with a platform that is easy, intuitive for users, and interactive.

“GiveCampus offers a great UX for our donors”

GiveCampus is very user friendly—for both the backend and the donor. My Partner Success Manager, Melanie, is amazing. Customer service is also on point! GiveCampus offers a great UX for our donors. We have gotten many compliments about the interface and ease of giving—especially with the digital wallet options and GC Connect.

Sasha Christina R

“Fantastic User Experience with GiveCampus”

I highly value their suite of fundraising products, and especially that the donor experience is consistent across their Social Fundraising and Giving Forms products. Donation forms are user-friendly and mobile friendly, and they are easy to set up and edit when necessary … The Volunteer Management system has provided the solution that we needed to reduce the amount of staff time required to coordinate peer-to-peer outreach, while providing access to classmate data that our volunteers want.

Our original idea was to use our phonathon network and just build a landing page for the campaign. But using GiveCampus added a sense of professionalism with the video, matches, challenges, and other features. It helped motivate people that weren’t already familiar with the clinic to donate.

Sanjay Jinka

President of Outreach at Northeast Ohio Medical University

We know that our digital campaigns bring in new and returning donors who might be strong gift prospects. The more accurate our constituent data, the more targeted and strategic we can be about next steps for our team and our volunteers.

GiveCampus has helped UF take our peer-to-peer fundraising to the next level! By leveraging the social networks of Oilers everywhere, on our most recent 24 Hours of Giving, we had over 540 donors give almost $170,000.

So easy. We trust GiveCampus so much that we’re even moving towards pulling in both paid and authorized transactions, because we know everything is going to come through and we want to get gifts in our database ASAP.

Dan Snyder

Director of Advancement Services at Bennington College

GiveCampus helps us find and engage new donors. It’s uncovering people connected to HCC that we had no idea were connected.

Flyer Funder, the University of Dayton’s crowdfunding program, turns innovative ideas into reality. For the last five fiscal years, GiveCampus has allowed our Annual Giving team to raise nearly $207,000 for over 45 Flyer Funder projects.

For me, the biggest draw was the way the platform is structured. Even if you have a tiny staff, a staff of one, GiveCampus is set up to help you deliver really big results.

Julie Phillips

Interim Director of Development at Holyoke Community College

When we switched to GiveCampus for all of our online giving, we saw a 16% increase in gifts. We attribute the majority of that growth to how much easier it is to give.

Director of Campaign Management and Advancement Operations at College of the Holy Cross

We’re grateful to have partnered with an organization that allows us to respond to emerging needs quickly, engage our entire community, and ensure today’s Pioneers have the support they need to continue to thrive, no matter the circumstances. Thanks, GiveCampus, for supporting us, as we support our students.

Kathryn Gloor

Senior Director of Annual Giving at Marietta College

Using the GiveCampus platform resulted in an over 50% reduction of manual gift entry hours in the days following our Day of Giving. This was a huge time savings that allowed us to provide accurate donor and dollar counts and analysis to our senior administration more quickly.

Kristen Ritzman

Director of Advancement Data at Susquehanna University

It was invaluable to have a real partnership with GiveCampus that gave our team extra support. To have someone in your corner who can not only share best practices, but also be a real partner to your team during a stressful fundraising period is so special.

Lauren Lachocki Redfern

Director of the SU Annual Fund at Susquehanna University

We would not have acquired these donors or known about their significant philanthropic potential without GiveCampus. The platform connected the dots for us in real-time, putting us in a position to engage and steward them at a deeper, more meaningful level.

Luke Gorman

Director of Annual Giving and Operations at Colby-Sawyer College

Before we could even load messages into the Volunteer Management System, our volunteers were using it to send personal messages out about the emergency fund—very soon after we rolled it out, we had gifts totaling more than $100,000.

Mary Zug

Assistant Director of Annual Giving at Grinnell College

The ability to donate through Apple Pay, Google Pay, Venmo, and PayPal has changed the game for us … 47.6% of our donors used one of those methods during our Athletics campaign this year and 36.3% during our Giving Day!

Nicole Forgit

Executive Director, Alumni & Friends Engagement at The Clark Fund

This year, we saw a 68% increase in the number of donors for our Senior Class Gift campaign—more than 200 Anchors gave in support of the college’s Emergency Response Fund. On #RICGivingDay, we exceeded our donor goal by 55% and our dollar goal by more than double!

Rachel Greenleaf

Our partnership with GiveCampus has allowed us to meet our donors where they are! We proudly accept Paypal, Venmo, Apple Pay, and Crypto!

Samantha Quinn

We love that 360MatchPro easily integrates with GiveCampus for our crowdfunding campaigns. We saw a huge spike in matching gifts after implementing it for our Day of Giving, and this integration has made it easy to increase our revenue without requiring additional staff resources.

Kathryn Gloor

Senior Director of Annual Giving at Marietta College

We’ve seen the numbers shoot up since we launched with GiveCampus. Donors love the accessibility of knowing that they can make a gift through their mobile wallet.

Adrien McDonald

Director of the Lions Fund at St. Andrew’s Episcopal School

The donor experience is so streamlined and simple now and the forms look great. It’s just a much better solution for us, not to mention all the great back-end stuff that we can do with reporting.

Carson England

Director of Strategic Initiatives, Office of Advancement at Dallas Baptist University

My team and I spoke with at least 6 other companies … none of them touched GiveCampus’ capability and power under the hood. But what truly separates you from everyone else is the human aspect … your ability to find a way to make it work financially with our budget. You guys wanted it to work for us … AND you had the most to offer our school community. None of the other companies positioned themselves like that.

Joe Sahd

Vice President of Advancement at Lancaster Catholic High School

I’ve always felt like GiveCampus is a platform that was built by people who’ve done the job, and it shows in the backend.

Lindsey Copeland

Senior Director of Analytics and Database Management at College of Charleston

We have a lot of different platforms in our ecosystem … out of all of the platforms that we use, our experience with GiveCampus has been the most positive. And not just because when we bought it everything was perfect, but also because of how quick they were to iterate on the platform.
