how HANDBID ELEVATES healthcare  fundraising & employee engagement

Featured Use Case
2025 - Present

WHEN YOUR BIGGEST WEEK DEPENDS ON YOUR PLATFORM

Healthcare organizations invest deeply in culture — and your biggest internal fundraiser is the moment that culture becomes visible. When thousands of employees are watching, participating, and judging the experience, you need a platform that reflects the same operational standards your organization is known for. Your people expect polish. Your leadership expects results. And your vendor needs to answer the phone.

why GENERIC platforms fail for HEALTHCARE FUNDRAISING

Internal employee campaigns aren’t charity galas with a different logo.

Healthcare organizations run some of the largest employee-driven fundraising programs in the country — company-wide giving weeks, peer recognition campaigns, and foundation events that connect thousands of employees to a shared mission. These programs require branded white-label deployments that match your corporate identity, enterprise security and data privacy compliance, custom features built to your specifications, and support that responds in minutes — not days. When your previous vendor offers email-only support with 12-18 hour response times, it’s time to raise your standards.

how HANDBID works for YOU

Enterprise security compliance

Data privacy and security standards that satisfy corporate IT and legal requirements.

Direct support access

Text us. Call us. No email queues, no 12-hour waits, no ticket numbers.

Custom reporting

Built to your specifications. Track exactly what your team needs to report on.

Employee engagement tools

Peer recognition, gamification, and participation features designed for internal audiences.

featured use case

CHG Healthcare runs MAD Week — ‘Make a Difference’ Week — a company-wide fundraiser for their Make a Difference Foundation. They’d been on CausePilot, dealing with constant crashes, email-only support, and 12-18 hour response times during their most critical week of the year.

made for
SHOW-NIGHT
PRESSURE

Handbid gives you one shared system for the entire property—so your team runs the same playbook everywhere, with real-time visibility and clean closeout when the night ends.
Direct Support Access
Direct Support Access use case for Handbid auction and fundraising platform

Direct Support Access

CHG’s previous vendor offered email-only support with 12–18 hour response times. When their platform crashed during the biggest week of the year, no one answered. With Handbid, CHG texts the team directly. Issues are acknowledged immediately and worked in real time. When 5,000 employees depend on your platform, responsiveness is everything.

Custom feature development
Custom feature development use case for Handbid auction and fundraising platform

Custom feature development

CHG needed a peer-recognition system called “Grams” — employees purchase coffee, meal, or massage grams for colleagues during MAD Week. It didn’t exist in Handbid. Six weeks later, it did. The Grams feature alone generated $85,801 in its first year, proving custom builds deliver real revenue.

Enterprise Reporting
Enterprise Reporting use case for Handbid auction and fundraising platform

Enterprise Reporting

CHG’s auction managers needed custom reporting to track who purchased each gram, who received it, and how participation flowed across the organization. Handbid built reporting to their specifications — not a generic export. With 2,000 registered bidders and 40% employee participation, the data had to be right.

Branded White-Label

Branded White-Label

CHG’s 5,000 employees interact with madw.handbid.com — a fully branded deployment matching CHG’s corporate identity. The platform looks and feels like a CHG product, not a third-party tool. For enterprise organizations running high-visibility internal campaigns, brand consistency isn’t a preference. It’s a requirement.

RESULTS

What began as a worry turned into the support they needed to deliver their best event yet.

$500K Raised in First MAD Week

Nearly half a million dollars raised in CHG’s first event on the Handbid platform.

40% Employee Participation

2,000 of 5,000 employees actively participated — strong adoption for a first-year deployment on a new platform.

$85,801 in Grams Revenue

The custom Grams feature alone generated significant revenue, proving the custom build was a meaningful engagement driver.

Year Two Confirmed

Despite first-year infrastructure challenges, CHG is planning year two with an expanded feature roadmap and “a giant list of customizations.”
