GiveGrove

GiveGrove makes fundraising software for non-profits, built around auctions and events. Charities use it to set up silent auctions and in-person or hybrid live events, then share a link so supporters can bid and give online.

What GiveGrove offers

• Silent auctions — online bidding that organisations can open to supporters through a shared event link.
• Live and hybrid events — tools for in-person and mixed events, including ticketing and live giving.
• Donor engagement — QR codes and text messages that let guests join in from their phones.
• Reporting — live figures on how a campaign or event is going.
• GiveBack Guarantee — a scheme that returns part of the tips collected on the platform to the organisation.
• Peer fundraising — supporters can become fundraisers themselves and bring in their own networks.

The platform is aimed at non-profit organisations. Groups named as users include United Way of LaPorte County and the Center For The Homeless.
