Nonprofit - Success Stories

Advocacy and Politics


Operation Food Search
"We are delighted with the way our new website represents our services and reaches into the community. Our ability to receive online donations and sign up volunteers is a great asset to the organization. The capacity to update our website on a regular basis is a great improvement. I was delighted to see how the website is so user friendly. Having up-to-date, fresh material is a real step forward for us."

"Firespring has been a phenomenal partner in all of this. They have done their homework on the nonprofit sector and have been a catalyst for bringing very diverse nonprofits together. This collaboration affords us an opportunity to share ideas that have worked for other organizations and discover communications approached we may have never discovered."

Environmental and Humane Causes


Great Dane Rescue
"We are going strong with the new web site. Our adoption applications are up and our sales of items that fund our rescue work are also up. Thankfully, so are donations. Taking on the new web site has been a very good venture for Great Dane Rescue, Inc."

Fundraising and Foundations


St. Baldrick's Foundation
"The St. Baldrick's Foundation functions almost exclusively on the Internet, raising millions of dollars online. Without the security and functionality of a first-class website, it would be much more difficult to raise significant funds for childhood cancer research."

Health and Human Services


Southwest 8 Senior Services
"Before our website, we felt we were Southwest Iowa's best-kept secret. We wanted to combat that perception. Our Firespring website has greatly enhanced the effectiveness of our external communications and marketing. I can't think of a better way to invest this money for our organization's image. For Southwest 8, the benefits of our new website are both powerful and profound."

"It was extremely costly for us to have a web designer constantly working on our site and the draw back was that we were at his mercy as to when the content would actually go up on the site. I LOVE that I have the control. We couldn't be more pleased!"
