“Our past fundraising was incredibly disorganized” laments Ray Rivarde, group leader for Pi Kappa Alpha at Louisiana Tech. And when three dozen guys work hard on a program and only raise $400, you know something is wrong.

“Our events chairman did a horrible job with the last program we did” Ray says when considering the decision to try another fundraiser. “But CampusFundraiser has the best reputation among fundraising companies.” And so a decision was made.

Of course, a good reputation and fundraising programs that are simple, safe and free will only take you so far. We also needed to deliver for the men of Pi Kappa Alpha.

“I really liked that you allowed us to work without fear of losing money” he tells us. This reassurance that they really had nothing to lose – even if the event fell flat on its face – also helped bring around even the most skeptical members of the house. This time the group worked for just three hours, raising between them several thousand dollars in that time. It was a rousing success by anyone’s standards.

The money has now been set aside to earn interest until their formal party at the end of the school year. And with an extra 75 bucks apiece to work with, making that party a success just became a lot easier.
