The Challenge

Advokate needed a compelling way to inspire donors at their annual gala and increase financial support for their work with pregnant women in need. They wanted to go beyond the usual donation appeal and create something that would truly connect with people—something that would move them to action.

What We Did

We knew that the most powerful way to inspire generosity was through storytelling. So, we worked with Advokate to produce an emotional client testimonial video, Nicole’s Story, designed specifically to be shown at their 2024 Langley Gala.

🎥 Created a Heartfelt Client Testimonial Video

  • Instead of just talking about Advokate’s impact, we showed it through a real story.
  • The video highlighted the struggles and triumphs of a mother who was supported by Advokate, making it deeply personal and relatable.

💡 Designed to Inspire Action

  • Every second of the video was crafted to engage the audience emotionally and drive home the importance of their support.
  • We structured the story to naturally lead into a call-to-action, encouraging donations and monthly partnerships.

📢 Expanded Beyond the Gala

  • While the primary goal was to raise funds at the gala, we also made sure the video could be used for future outreach—including church presentations and donor events.

The Results?

The impact was nothing short of incredible:

✅ Record-Breaking Fundraising at the 2024 Langley Gala
The gala raised $161,515, surpassing their original goal and ensuring more resources for women in need.

✅ More Than Double the Expected Monthly Partners
The goal was to gain 15 new recurring donors. Thanks to the video, they secured 31 new monthly partners, providing ongoing support for Advokate’s mission.

✅ Ongoing Impact in the Community
Beyond the gala, Nicole’s Story has continued to inspire action. When it was shown at a large church gathering, 60 new volunteers stepped up to support Advokate’s initiatives.

Why It Matters

Non-profit fundraising isn’t just about asking for donations—it is about showing the impact and making people feel why their support matters. A well-crafted video can turn passive viewers into passionate supporters, proving that the right story, told the right way, can drive real change.
