EventEase

About

We started by helping a friend. That became EventEase.

We helped a close friend honor his father with a charity golf outing. Spreadsheets and payment tracking were eating him alive. That is still the person we help.

Our purpose

Make the fundraiser easier, so more of the work goes to the cause.

Organizations doing good should not lose money to spreadsheets, unpaid invoices, and a weekend of chasing names. We build the event website and stay on the call when you need us.

Our story

Helping a friend became the work.

He was overwhelmed by spreadsheets, payment tracking, and the pressure of managing everything alone. That was not a one-off.

EventEase has been helping organizations run fundraising events for well over a decade. Volunteers were carrying events without the right tools. Good causes were losing money because the process was too manual. We started building a website for the fundraiser so you can tell the story, take sign-ups, take payment, and — if you want — let each person raise in their name.

Many of the causes we support are personal to us: cancer organizations, veteran groups, children’s programs, community foundations, and memorial events.

EventEase is a Connecticut-based company that has been helping organizations run events and fundraisers for more than a decade. We build our software here, support our customers directly, and believe good technology should come with real people behind it.

Meet the founder

Still personal after all these years.

EventEase started with a simple idea: make fundraising events easier to run without making them feel impersonal.

I'm Doug Haines, founder of EventEase. I've spent years working directly with the people behind these events — answering questions, helping solve problems, and improving EventEase based on what organizers actually need.

That personal approach is still a big part of how we run EventEase today.

When we say you'll have someone to call, we mean it.

What matters to us

How we show up.

Partnership

We walk beside you, not above you. You talk to people who have run events like yours.

Honest fees

No monthly fee. We tell you the card rate before you start. Fundraising dollars should stay with the cause.

Your supporters stay yours

They do not create an EventEase account. We don’t ask them to tip us. How we get paid is between us and you.

Human support

We help you set up. We pick up the phone. We do not leave you with a help article.

We teach as we go

Sponsorships, pricing, and the usual mistakes — we will tell you what we have seen work.

Causes we know

Cancer organizations, veteran groups, children’s programs, community foundations, and memorial events are personal to this team.

The beliefs are simple. Pricing should be clear. Supporters should not need an EventEase account, or be asked to pay the software company. Getting help should not mean waiting on a ticket.

What we do

Everything you need to run your event. And people to help when you need us.

EventEase brings your event website, registrations, sponsorships, donations, payments, communication, and reporting together in one place. We’ve built EventEase around the way real fundraising events actually work.

Personal Support

Where we started

Golf is how EventEase began. It is not all we do.

Charity golf has been part of EventEase from the beginning, and we know what goes into running a great tournament. From registrations, foursomes, and sponsorships to hole assignments, payments, live scoring, contests, and more, we’ve built tools around the way charity golf tournaments actually work. For golf cannons, signage, and people on the course, we partner with Golf Tournament Solutions (GTS).

But EventEase has grown far beyond the golf course. Today, organizations use EventEase for galas, school fundraisers, sporting events, concerts, runs and walks, community events, and much more.

Our commitment

You have an event to run. We’re here to make it easier.

Behind every successful event is someone keeping track of a lot of moving pieces. EventEase brings registrations, sponsorships, donations, payments, and event details together in one place — with real support when you need it.

Less time managing software. More time focused on your event.
