"Our donor base has tripled because
of our campaign with the Russ Reid Company... We received
900 checks in one day–a record!"
Phyllis Haynes
Executive Director
Arkansas Food Bank Network
Here's just a small sampling of what we have been able
to accomplish for our Food Bank partners.
Golden Harvest Food Bank Augusta, Georgia
Prior to working with us, Golden Harvest Food Bank had 6,700
donors and $103,692 gross revenue from an outreach area covering
25 counties. Within the first four months of partnering with
Russ Reid Company and implementing our fundraising program
for Fall 2003, their donor file more than doubled to 15,000
and they raised a total of $181,982 from acquisition and cultivation
efforts.
Arkansas Foodbank Network Little Rock, Arkansas
When Arkansas Foodbank Network (AFN) first partnered with
Russ Reid Company, they had 3,870 donors in an outreach area
covering 44 counties. After just four months of executing
our fundraising solutions, AFN brought in 7,530 new donors
and raised $234,166 from acquisition and cultivation in Fall
2003.
Montana Food Bank Network Missoula, Montana
Montana Food Bank Network (MFBN) had no formal direct marketing
program and only 240 donors for a service area that covered
the entire state. They were dependent on grants, which can
be agonizingly difficult to procure. One year after partnering
with Russ Reid Company, MFBN boosted their donor count to
3,800 and raised a total of $216,643!
