Autism fundraising · Mansfield Autism

$68,077

Raised in 2026

When the team reached out about raising awareness for autism, we said yes without hesitation. It was outside the original brief, but that did not matter.

We built a fundraising push into the campaign using the organic audience we had already spent months growing.

No paid ads on our end. No additional charge to the client. Just a community that trusted the content, pointed toward a cause worth their attention.

Over $68,000 had been raised for Mansfield Autism.

Andy's message to the team

“

Thanks for the amazing work this year team. Was super happy I took the risk and went with the top package you offered. The difference it made, in combination with the paid advertising, had a significant impact. Especially on Instagram where we struggled a little to get traction. I'd love to have a chat with you guys about the 2027 event.
