"Since entering into a master service agreement with Handbid, five colleges and departments have hosted successful fundraisers on the platform.
Several of these events never had an online component. Handbid allowed us to expand our reach and connect with alumni and donors across the country. Handbid will help us continue to facilitate this virtual engagement, even as we return to more in-person events this fall!"
