In our recent webinar, we explored the Dynamics 365 Nonprofit Accelerator, showcasing how it helps nonprofits streamline operations, enhance donor interactions and improve grant and award management processes.

What is Dynamics 365 Nonprofit Accelerator?

Dynamics 365 Nonprofit Accelerator is a specialized customer relationship management (CRM) solution tailored for nonprofit organizations. Dynamics 365 is Microsoft’s CRM, and the Nonprofit Accelerator was designed to be an extension of this tool for nonprofits to use. Built on Dynamics 365, the focus of the Nonprofit Accelerator is to eliminate data silos, giving organizations powerful insights into their constituent management, fundraising, awards, program delivery, and impact tracking. The accelerator integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Power Platform and the Common Data Model for nonprofits, providing the tools needed to enhance efficiency and maximize resources.

Insights into donors & supporters

With Dynamics 365 Nonprofit Accelerator, organizations can strengthen relationships with donors and supporters, building stronger, longer-lasting relationships that go beyond just securing funding. By focusing on retention, nonprofits can build lasting connections and increase each donor’s lifetime value. Managing these relationships effectively enables meaningful engagement and creates opportunities for sustained support.

Improve mission results

By understanding their supporters on a deeper level, nonprofits can tailor their content for different groups to ensure that the messaging resonates with each member of their audience. This tailored approach not only boosts engagement but also attracts new donors who align with your mission. By leveraging donor data in a centralized system, your organization can deliver the right message to the right people at the right time, leading to stronger relationships and a greater impact on the communities you serve.

Execute effective programs

Dynamics 365 Nonprofit Accelerator also enhances volunteer management and program delivery. Streamlining volunteer management means that your organization can better recruit, train, and retain your volunteers, enabling more meaningful contributions. By gaining valuable insights into program participants and volunteers, nonprofits can ensure each person feels recognized and appreciated, ultimately enhancing the quality of programs and volunteer engagement.
