One connected record

Stop rebuilding the truth.

A gift becomes a receipt, donor history, campaign result, deposit, fund entry, and follow-up without being retyped.

What does DonorForge do for a nonprofit?

DonorForge is a nonprofit CRM that keeps donor relationships, gifts, campaigns, and fundraising operations in one place. Your team can import or add donor records, connect a payment account, publish an online donation page, and track one-time, recurring, or pledged giving. Each gift stays connected to the donor history, campaign, fund, receipt, deposit, and follow-up work it creates. Fundraisers can manage tasks and pipelines, while finance teams reconcile deposits and prepare reports without rebuilding the story in spreadsheets. Organizations can also run events, grants, team fundraising, and automated outreach from the same workspace. DonorForge includes a guided activation checklist so a new organization knows what to do first, while the optional public mini-site can be customized and shared whenever the team is ready. The result is a clearer operating record for staff and a more consistent experience for supporters.

From nonprofit teams

The system should feel quieter than the work.

“Our previous setup was PayPal donations, a Mailchimp list, and a Google Sheet. We migrated to DonorForge in a single weekend. Sponsor-a-pet recurring donations are up 3x because the donor self-management portal works the way donors actually expect.”

Marcus Chen, Founder

“We juggle three audiences: monetary donors, in-kind donors, and volunteers. The same grocery store used to get three thank-you letters from three different staff members. Putting them all on one record cleaned that up the first week.”

Robert Okonkwo, Operations Manager

“Our box office could never tell us which subscribers were also donors. DonorForge stitched the records together on import and surfaced about 60 high-value patrons we had been treating as just ticket buyers. Two of them have since written four-figure checks.”

Thomas Whitfield, Development Director

Questions before you move

The practical answers.

Is DonorForge really free?

The Free plan is ongoing. During the Founding 200 offer, eligible organizations receive Starter free, with no credit card required and no trial clock.

Can we migrate from spreadsheets or another CRM?

Yes. Import donors, gifts, pledges, notes, and household data. Validate the move before launch and keep the original export as a rollback copy.

Does DonorForge replace accounting software?

It handles fundraising bookkeeping and reconciliation, then produces clean records for your accountant or general ledger.

Does it handle recurring gifts and pledges?

Yes. Recurring plans, pledge installments, reminders, failed-payment follow-up, receipts, and balances connect to one donor record.

Can we use our own payment processor?

Yes. Choose Sola (Cardknox), Banquest, or your own Stripe account — paste your Stripe API keys and donations settle straight to your bank, with Apple Pay and Google Pay included. DonorForge adds no platform fee on top of processing.
