Recurring donation for a non-profit organization
Our client is a Non-profit organization that provides personalized care and support to the families affected by cancer. The organization strives to provide a family with whatever it is that will allow them a bit of relief from their daily struggle against cancer. The client was earlier using the opportunity object to note down all the donations which wasn’t a comprehensive and structured way and they were facing many challenges because of it.
The client is a Non-profit organization which serves cancer patients. Donation and relationship with donors is a very important aspect for a non-profit organization. The client was earlier recording data related to donation in opportunity object in Salesforce which was not streamlined and comprehensive. The client was looking for a better alternative to avoid these challenges.
We recommended the client to use recurring donation to record their donations and funds to store all the information at one place and enhance the efficiency. We integrated recurring donation as per the client’s requirements which helped them to maintain all the data at one place and avoid confusions and inaccuracies.
