The one window that has to work.

Centre Gives runs for thirty-six hours, once a year, and in that window every local nonprofit in the county is counting on the same thing at the same time. Thousands of gifts land in a burst, all through one donation flow that cannot blink.

We built the Foundation's site and the giving-day donation flow behind it — a Gravity Forms and Stripe setup, plain and sturdy, the studio owning the path from donor to nonprofit end to end.

36 hrs

one giving day a year, the whole county on one donation flow

1 flow

every gift through a single path that could not blink

0 lost

the only number that mattered between donor and nonprofit

We didn't raise the money. We built what raised it.

The community brought the millions. Our job was to make sure that when they did, not a dollar got lost between the donor and the nonprofit. That meant the Foundation site and the giving-day flow, built and run start to finish.

Reliability is the product.

A giving day is a promise made in public. When a donor gives on the one day the whole county is watching, the platform underneath has to disappear, so all they feel is that it worked.
