Horizon Partners is pleased to announce that our client, Givergy, has been acquired by Edison Partners and Vocap Partners. As part of Edison’s strategic vision, Givergy has been combined with Tatango to form momoGood, a new AI-native platform for the global giving economy. This represents a major milestone for Givergy, whose fundraising and event technology will serve as a foundational ‘experience layer’ of the combined platform.
Edison Partners’ strategy brings together two highly complementary capabilities: Tatango’s mobile-first text engagement infrastructure, where campaigns deliver up to seven times return on fundraising investment, and Givergy’s industry-leading event, auction, and experiential fundraising technology. The resulting platform, momoGood, is designed to serve as a unified operating system for the giving industry, eliminating technology fragmentation, deepening donor relationships, and driving measurable impact at scale. The combined company serves more than 2,500 customers across North America, Europe, Hong Kong, and Australia, and the technologies behind it have collectively contributed to more than $2 billion in global impact.
momoGood will be led by CEO Matt Combs, founder of YourCause, a corporate social responsibility platform previously backed by Vocap Partners and subsequently acquired by Blackbaud in 2019. Of the company’s vision, Combs commented:
“The market does not need another fundraising tool; it needs a unified operating system. We’re building momoGood to be the giving industry’s infrastructure, connecting engagement, fundraising and data across organizations and individuals. By eliminating fragmentation and introducing real intelligence, donor participation expands and charitable impact scales.”
About Givergy
Founded in 2011 by Julian Sykes, Givergy is a leading provider of event-based and experiential fundraising technology, powering high-impact auctions, galas, and giving campaigns for nonprofit organizations around the world. With offices in London, New York, Toronto, Vancouver, Hong Kong, and Sydney, Givergy has helped raise more than $1.1 billion for nonprofits globally, establishing itself as a trusted partner for organizations looking to maximize donor engagement and fundraising performance at live and virtual events. Its technology and team bring deep expertise in the mechanics of generosity, making Givergy a compelling acquisition target for a growth investor like Edison Partners looking to build category-defining infrastructure for the giving economy.
Givergy operates at the intersection of two powerful and converging trends in the nonprofit sector: the rapid shift toward mobile-first donor engagement, and the accelerating demand for AI-enabled fundraising intelligence. The charity fundraising platform market is projected to grow from $7.7 billion in 2025 to over $14 billion by 2030, driven by mobile-first platforms, AI-driven donor targeting, and real-time analytics. Givergy’s global footprint, deep product investments, and rich donor data position it as a natural beneficiary of, and contributor to, this next era of the giving economy.
Horizon’s Role & Product-First Approach
First engaged in August of 2024, this transaction marks the culmination of a 19-month relationship with the company. Over that time, Horizon stayed actively engaged with Givergy’s management team, conducting comprehensive market checks at multiple stages, preparing the company for an eventual transaction, and ultimately identifying Edison Partners as the right long-term partner. All of which showcased Horizon’s deep experience in and knowledge of the nonprofit software space. This experience was central in crafting a compelling M&A narrative that positioned Givergy’s unique value drivers effectively.
Leveraging Horizon’s proprietary Product-First M&A model, the team integrated deeply with Givergy’s infrastructure, systems, and team, providing tactical advisory services at each key decision-making node and throughout each stage of the negotiation, driving strong outcomes on both valuation and non-financial terms. The closing process, which began in November 2025, involved meaningful complexity including the navigation of international entities across Givergy’s global footprint, a process that showcased Horizon’s ability to shepherd management teams through intricate, multi-jurisdictional transactions
Looking Ahead
With Edison Partners’ backing, Givergy’s technology and customers are now positioned at the center of an effort to modernize the global giving economy under the momoGood banner. The company plans to continue supporting existing customers without disruption while launching next-generation platform capabilities in the second half of 2026.
