Benefits for Nonprofits
Whatever the size of your charity and where you are in your journey, Salesforce can help you do more with less. With its cloud-based technology, flexibility and specialist nonprofit platform and community, Salesforce can help you connect your charity, build capacity and grow. With all the tools you need to manage your fundraising, engage with donors, deliver charitable activities for your beneficiaries and evidence your impact, we will work with you to ensure your Salesforce solution meets the specific needs of your charity now and in the future. Through its Power of Us program, Salesforce offers exceptionally generous discounts to nonprofits, making it an affordable solution for every charity.
The initial adoption of Salesforce was driven in the commercial sector by the implementation of the “out of the box” solutions, specifically Sales Cloud and Service Cloud. The offering has since been expanded with various vertically aligned solutions such as Markerting Cloud, Financial Service Cloud and, in the third sector, Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP).
Added to this are the many solutions that have been built by 3rd party vendors and readily available to Salesforce customers via the excellent Salesforce AppExchange.
