BIKUR CHOLIM OF CLEVELAND SOLD! AUCTION CASE STUDY

How could Bikur Cholim Cleveland design a fundraising event that would not only meet financial goals, but also generate excitement and spur donors to eagerly participate as “Rayzers” (ambassadors) in their Onward Cleveland Campaign? A unique virtual auction garnered positive publicity and helped Bikur Cholim of Cleveland attract ambassadors and surpass its fundraising goal.
