Don’t take our word for it

Check out what changemakers are saying

We needed a CRM, an online fundraising platform, and a vehicle for our online auction. Givebutter provided one-stop shopping for all of these needs, as well as flexible payment options. This allowed us to find the best balance for sharing the expenses with our supporters and retaining maximum dollars to support our mission of funding breast cancer research.

Stephanie Lesher
Fund Director & VP of Development
Equip Mozambique

Best and easiest fundraising platform we have found in 20 Years! It's easy to integrate into our website, emails and social media. The auction software works great for both in-person and online auctions. We also utilize the text to donate function, which is great in today's giving environment.

Susan Leisure
Executive Director
Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends

Having the ability to run a silent online auction, sell tickets, and accept donations in lieu of ticket purchases (or in addition) was a game-changer that led us to nearly double our annual event's overall income. The platform is very intuitive and live chat support 7 days a week was very helpful!

Emily KenCairn
Director of Development & Communications
People & Pollinators Action Network

The dashboard is sleek and easy to use, and it had all the sharing features I needed to be able to run multiple campaigns and keep track of giving, thank-you notes, and other data. I have recommended it to others who have also used it and appreciated the ease.

Carla Reinagel
Chief Operating Officer
Equip Mozambique

I love that we can run a simple online fundraising campaign or an auction + fundraiser + 
in-person event. The platform has everything we need. Our emailing and fundraising platform and events platform were all previously separate. It is super helpful to have one platform that integrates all of those. It was so hard to have to constantly switch over our email lists and contact info of new donors before, but now it's all in one place.

Sequoi Phipps-Hawkins
Director of Marketing & Communications
Birth in Color RVA

We needed a fun and efficient way to create a campaign that engaged our donors in ways that encouraged peer-to-peer fundraising. Givebutter solved this problem for our nonprofit by creating pages where donors can set up crowdfunding campaigns. This way, their friends and families can give through their page, and they can collect points toward a larger competition. We raised significantly more than in past campaigns where crowdfunding wasn't an option, and we will continue to use Givebutter for future campaigns.

Rachel Dougherty
Development Officer
Boston Renaissance Charter Public School

I love that donors can donate in various ways. They can choose a credit card, PayPal, or Venmo. They can also use a QR code, link, or text-to-donate, which makes it easy to get donors to the website. The checkout process is also smooth. We can require people to cover any transaction fees, which is very helpful to ensure every penny goes into our nonprofit! The tickets/events feature is also beneficial, and we can create promo codes for recurring or major donors. Lastly, donors can also choose to give monthly, quarterly, etc.

Stormie Drake
Executive Director

Givebutter makes it easier than other donation websites to connect with donors. I love how I can sell tickets directly on the platform, which is how we as a nonprofit in the music industry make the most of our money! They have a very good guide and testimonials that help me understand as a user the best way to take advantage of all the tools they have to offer. I really love the team behind the platform and it's clear that they have a strong vision for the company and have built a community around the fundraising tools and experiences they have built over the years.
