“We had hoped to make an improvement in the amount of funds raised online, as historically 80-90% of our pledges had been in person. What we did not expect was to have 49% of our total pledges from the campaign come from online in our first year using Panorama.”

"As the threat of COVID-19 worsened, we were able to quickly migrate our major spring fundraiser, the Mutt March, to a completely virtual event including a dog walk, online auction and sponsorships using the Panorama digital fundraising platform.”
