DESCRIPTION
The organization is seeking a vendor to provide a comprehensive advancement gift processing platform. The required software must automate various components of gift processing and financial operations, such as exporting data nightly or in near real-time and offering structured, import-ready gift files to minimize manual intervention.
Key features include mobile-responsive, donor-centric giving forms, a unified and intuitive online giving experience, and tools for managing recurring giving with features like automatic credit card updates. The platform should support enterprise-level giving day events, peer-to-peer fundraising, crowdfunding campaign management, and provide a modern event registration system with integrated payment processing and QR code-based attendance tracking.
A centralized communications system is needed to streamline donor engagement and reduce reliance on multiple platforms. Additional requirements cover robust self-service reporting and analytics, student philanthropy operations, and the consolidation of multiple fundraising, giving, and engagement tools into a single efficient platform. Scalability and future growth support are also essential for ongoing fundraising expansion.
