Category: Fundraising Case Studies
Our fundraising case studies examine successful nonprofit fundraising events and initiatives from DoJiggy’s client base. We highlight walkathons and peer-to-peer fundraisers, golf tournaments, online donation campaigns, school fundraisers, unique fundraising ideas, and much more.
The benefit for our readers is the ability to relate on a deeper level to a fundraising event and organization. Glean some great ideas and imagine how wonderful your next event can be.
For example, The Annual Summit for the Planet Walk-a-thon and Earth Day Celebration in April each year has something for all ages. The green celebration features live animals including birds, lizards, and snakes; community networking, green businesses and more. Their theme even involves a wild time with frogs and turtles and the Bay Area Amphibian and Reptile Society. And great fun is featured with solar car races, live music, kids eco-carnival games, and organic foods.
