SUMMARY
Against a backdrop of an aging and declining donor base, this case study demonstrates how Dublin Simon Community hijacked the news cycle with a film created with controversial AI technology to drive unprecedented results.
We not only delivered on attracting new, younger donors (increased 64%), but also drove amazing increases in donations (monthly revenue grew 259% in a declining donation landscape) as well as increasing overall transactions 135%.
In two weeks, this ground-breaking creative initiative generated 12.3 million impressions and €114,000 in earned-media.
