HonorHealth Foundation Triples Campaign Goal, Funds 170,000 Bottles of Water
HonorHealth Foundation set out to grow its annual Bottled Water Drive to meet rising community needs during Arizona’s extreme summer heat. With rising temperatures posing serious health risks for vulnerable populations, the goal was to expand donor participation, lift revenue, and clearly connect every gift to tangible impact.

Our Solution
Strategic Campaign Planning
We built a multi-touch email campaign focused on urgency, clear impact, and consistent donor engagement, with the goal of funding 50,000 bottles of water. Messaging was tailored to annual giving donors, employees, and grateful patients, and amplified by engaging GIFs and a matching gift that doubled every donation.
Strategic Campaign Planning
We translated donations into a tangible outcome: bottles of water. With each bottle costing about $0.25, donors could instantly see how every gift translated into real help for community members facing Arizona’s extreme heat.
Urgency and Final Push Optimization
A strong final-day email, formatted as a forward from a foundation team member, leaned on the matching opportunity and approaching deadline. It drove 128+ donations in the final six hours alone, proving the power of strategic timing.
The Results
We were able to help HonorHealth Foundation dramatically increase donor engagement and revenue by executing a strategic, email-driven digital campaign for the Bottled Water Drive.
In its first year managed by Doing Good Digital and first time deploying from Blackbaud Luminate Online®, the campaign more than tripled its original goal and funded 170,000 bottles of water for the Arizona community.
