When Union Gospel Mission adopted Golden, they faced a challenge many nonprofits know well: declining volunteer engagement and fragmented admin work after COVID.

By switching to a modern volunteer platform, UGM transformed how they manage, track, and grow their volunteer program — and the results speak for themselves:

👉 Centralized data and automated processes that save staff hours
👉 Self-service volunteer sign-ups and real-time attendance tracking
👉 Integrated insights that help tell their impact story to leadership

Now, they’re engaging thousands more volunteers year after year and building a stronger foundation for mission growth all while reducing administrative burdens. 💪

Whether you’re planning for growth or rebuilding volunteer engagement, this case study shows the power of streamlined tech + clear communication.
