Visually Compelling and Realistic
iBuild displays real-world objects in detailed 3D. iBuild graphics personnel convert your engineering drawings or architectural concepts to 3D graphics which then can be displayed on the internet in great detail and with the engineer's original precision. iBuild showcases the project and the university worldwide, and offers an interactive and compelling experience for donors - one that gives them a more tangible connection to the project.

Available Anytime Anywhere
iBuild is an amazing global communications tool! From any global location and from any time zoneworldcoins1.jpg iBuild gives universities the ability to display a project's fundraising status in 3D realism while collecting donations from near and far.   This means that the international community can be an integral part of the fundraising campaign.  As part of a comprehensive campaign to alumni, corporate partners, and other donors, iBuild solves many communication, collection, receipting and administrative issues and lowers costs by having a central repository of data collection and processes.

Applicability

iBuild can be used for all fundraising objects, including construction of buildings, renovation of buildings, for research equipment, landscaping projects, or detailed 3D campus maps linked to information databases.

Real-time Feedback
iBuild offers donors real-time graphical acknowledgement when a donation is made. Most systems only offer a printed acknowledgement, however with iBuild a donation made from anywhere in the world is reflected graphically to all other worldwide locations and it all happens within seconds!

Interactive with Extensive Multi-media Capability
Fundraising objects displayed can be completely interactive. A prospective donor can walk through the walkthru1.jpgbuilding, either freely or by using a pre-scripted tour. A donor can select multiple views of the building, rotate it, or view the building in multiple states of construction completion. Full multi-media, including animation (especially useful for bringing equipment "to life"), sound files, music, and streamed video, can be fully integrated to dramatically increase the "wow" factor of your campaign.



Team Building and Long-Term Community Development

iBuild includes an Alumni Challenge component which forms the basis of dividing donor groups into friendly competing factions. The Challenge helps build your organization's long-term donor community versus a traditional short-term yearly communication. As part of the donation process, iBuild donor data is recorded and transferred to your organization's internal systems. In this way the iBuild system adds further value to your organization's marketing program.

Consistent Campaigns with extensible, limitless projects
An iBuild partnership gives a long-term consistent approach to your fundraising campaigns. iBuild can host limitless individual projects. Individual projects can then be subdivided into specific fundraising items. iBuild reflects the individuality of your projects while maintaining a consistent approach to your fundraising methods.

Comprehensive
The iBuild system is complete, including the web interface, 3D graphics, donation forms and database mechanisms, and back-end payment processing. SBTG includes all services in order to have an organization's fundraising projects online and operational in a matter of weeks (dependent on the size and complexity of the fundraising project).

Donor Acknowledgement and Listings
As soon as a donation is made, the online donor list is updated and viewable by future project visitors. "Anonymous" is available for donors selecting that option. For the "Faculty Challenge" section of iBuild, donor names are grouped with team-mates' names within faculties.
