Congrats to the Winner of Our $5,000 Genius Tech Giveaway
Posted by Kate White
With more than 55,000 total entries, this year's $5,000 Genius Tech Giveaway proved you believe in the power of technology to help today's students thrive.
We are excited to announce our grand prize winner: St. Mary's School in Bloomington, IL.
We randomly selected the school, which was nominated by Mary Ann Schweers, a first-grade teacher. The school will receive $5,000 for technology upgrades, and Mary Ann will receive $250 for her winning nomination!
St. Mary's Principal Jamie Hartrich says:
"We are a small school working to make sure that every child, no matter his or her financial situation, can afford a Catholic, faith-based education. St. Mary's is very excited to accept this giveaway as this will allow us to update aging network infrastructure and expand our building's wireless capabilities to support Chromebooks for online learning in the classrooms. These electronic resources supplement classroom instruction, as well as assists in differentiating learning."
One of our core values at SignUpGenius is to advance the missions of others with our success. It's truly a gift to be able to give back to schools.
Congratulations to the students and staff at St. Mary's. And thank you to everyone who entered this year's giveaway!

Our church hosts a huge one-day food packaging event requiring over 700 volunteers. All of them sign up through SignUpGenius, which allows for a streamlined, nearly flawless check-in experience at event time. I run a report at the last minute to show who signed up on what shift at which table and how many people are coming with them. I also run a separate report that shows me where any empty spots are need to be filled in. I don't know how this event could be run without SignUpGenius.
