The Federation of Texas A&M Mothers’ Club (or Aggie Moms) serves Texas A&M by financially supporting organizations, raising over a million dollars annually. With over 7,600 members spread across 119 clubs nationwide, Aggie Moms is a dynamic group that supports students through fundraising, event management, and community building.
Before discovering Cheddar Up, The Federation of Texas A&M Mothers’ Club used a variety of platforms for managing their fundraising events. However, these platforms often fell short in flexibility and cost-efficiency. One major issue was the inability to pass processing fees onto buyers, which significantly impacted their revenue.
Solving the Puzzle for a New Platform
Stacy, a board member of The Federation of Texas A&M Mothers’ Club, was tasked with finding a solution that could streamline their operations. They needed a platform that could handle diverse needs, including selling T-shirts, managing event registrations, selling tickets, and more — all while being cost-effective and easy to use.
After an extensive search they selected Cheddar Up as their go-to platform. Cheddar Up’s ability to handle multiple types of transactions, its team management features, and the option to pass on processing fees were key factors in the decision.
Aggie Moms utilized Cheddar Up’s features to set up various board members with specific access levels, ensuring that each person could manage their own events without seeing others’ data. This flexibility was crucial for an organization with as many moving parts as Aggie Moms.
“I was tasked with finding a system that could handle everything — selling T-shirts, managing event registrations, and selling tickets — and Cheddar Up was the perfect solution.”
