Featured Tools:

This area features some pretty awesome stuff that we are trialing for all of you awesome non-profits out there.  We’ve selected them based on their ability to help you FIND THE MONEY.

Donor Search – We are just demoing this huge database full of individuals and donors.   completely ROBUST TOOL to find the exact donor or sponsor you may need.  So far, I love what I am seeing.  The great news about Donor Search is a FREE THREE WEEK trial PLUS the account team will help you use the tool and run reports.  Worried about having time to use this tool?  DON”T BE!  Donor Search’s account team is almost like having an on-staff development staff member.

Double the Donation -Another RAD tool but very different than Donor Search. Most employees DON’T KNOW about their company’s donor match programs.  This unique little piece of code integrates with your donation software and shows people whether their company will DOUBLE THEIR DONATION and guides them down the easy path to do so. Free trials and More!
