Case Study – Nonprofit
// CASE STUDY: NONPROFIT & GRANT-FUNDED PROGRAMS
Grant Tracking, Participant Records, and Funder Reporting in One Unified System
Case Study: Non-Profit
A mid-sized nonprofit was managing program participants, funding reports, and outcomes using a tangle of spreadsheets and cloud folders. Reporting to funders was slow, manual, and error-prone—costing them time and future funding opportunities.
The Challenges
- No central database for participants, services, or grant ties
- Outcomes buried in disconnected forms and email threads
- Board and funder reports took weeks to assemble
- Duplicate data entry across intake, notes, and reports
