RLC uses Google Drive for their documents and information.
To complete your weekly tasks, you will mainly use the folder named "Fundraising".
Top Folders/documents you will be using are:
Bloomerang SoftwareRLC uses Bloomerang as their CRM software. On this platform we organize all of our donors, with a focus on individual donors. We only include approved grants on Bloomerang.
There will be an in-depth training following the launch of this software, but prior to that it is expected that you research and watch a few demos on how this software works.
Salesforce // TrelloRLC uses Salesforce for tracking grant applications as well (there are some limitation to Bloomerang) - this is where we track which stage the application in and who is responsible. This platform is what we use to make formal reports (for example to the Board of Directors).
Trello is the internal platform the grant team uses to track grant progress as well as administrative tasks. We have one 'board’ for admin tasks, one for HQ/NYC grants and individual board for each of the branches. The onboarding will include training.
Online TrainingNonProfitReady offers a free training on Fundraising Essentials where they touch upon what Nonprofit Fundraising is, how to identity and cultivate donors, and how to solicit and steward donors.
At the end of each chapter there is a test to make sure you have picked up on the most important tips and strategies. You can take the test several times and when you pass you will get a 'certificate’ - Which you will send to Rebecca upon completion.
