Hi Brooke! Let’s get started — Tell us more about Swell Fundraising.

Swell Fundraising provides nonprofit organizations with a software solution that activates event guests to raise awareness and funds from their personal network. Our roots are in the Birmingham philanthropic community and we are passionate about growing impact through innovation. We try not to have any “average” days at Swell. However, a typical day involves several software demonstrations with a prospective nonprofit, client support for an upcoming event and working with our developers on software improvements.
