You started a rescue because you care about animals, not because you love spreadsheets. But somehow you’re managing adoptions, donors, events, and emails across five different tools.
In this session, Whitney Hedgepeth of Waggytail Rescue shares how her team of three runs everything through Zeffy, from collecting adoption donations to raising $25K in a single campaign for 70+ dogs. She’ll walk through the operational workflows that keep her team sane and the storytelling approach that turns followers into donors.
What you’ll learn:
✅ How a small team manages adoptions, donations, and refunds without the back-and-forth
✅ The storytelling formula behind a campaign that raised $25K and placed 70+ dogs
✅ How to coordinate operations across Zeffy, Airtable, and Google Suite
✅ What actually works for donor engagement: reels, posts, or written updates
✅ How to find time for fundraising when you’re already stretched thin
Who should attend:
Rescue directors, shelter managers, foster coordinators, board members, or anyone running an animal welfare org on a lean team. Bring your questions.
