What is a Changemaker? Impact Award for Nonprofits

What is a Changemaker? Impact Award for Nonprofits

Behind every thriving community is a changemaker organization making things happen. From a PTA modernizing school programs to a sports league expanding access for young athletes, to a nonprofit fighting for a local cause, changemakers are the engines of real progress. They see a gap, step up, and build something better. At Cheddar Up, we believe the best way to strengthen a community is to support the groups serving it. That’s why we created the Cheddar Up Changemakers program, an initiative designed to fund and spotlight organizations leading meaningful change.

How Voyager K-8 PTO Boosted Fundraising with P2P

Before Cheddar Up, Voyager K-8 PTO was spread thin using multiple platforms for payments, registrations, and communication.

Cheddar Up quickly became their go-to for everything: payments, sign-ups, spirit wear sales, and events. Using QR codes and a central collection page, they made it easy for parents and staff to find exactly what they needed. Everything lived in one place, which simplified communication and boosted participation across all types of collections.

How the Ninety-Nines Simplified Dues and Boosted Fundraising

Before Cheddar Up, the Eastern New England Chapter of the Ninety-Nines relied on a mix of paper forms, checks, and manual record-keeping. Members had to print registration forms, find a stamp, mail everything in, and wait for confirmation. For Sue, who manages finances for both her chapter and section, this meant piles of paperwork and hours spent sorting through details. As part of an international network of women pilots, the Ninety-Nines are constantly on the move — hosting fly-ins, pancake breakfasts, luncheons, and outreach programs. Managing money and information efficiently became critical to keeping their chapter focused on what matters most: camaraderie, scholarships, and inspiring the next generation of pilots.
