It also offered us a chance to think report gives you insight into who we are, just as crafting creatively about our ever-evolving culture. it gave us insight into where we’re headed. MIKE GIANONI “I help good take over by serving on boards and volunteering with organizations in my community— President and CEO, Blackbaud currently the International African American Museum, Charleston Animal Society, and Clemson University.” 3 Our Purpose Our Team Our Governance Our World About Blackbaud Our Purpose Blackbaud began nearly four decades ago with a simple idea: Organizations and people striving to make a tangible impact in their communities deserve the right tools to help them work faster, more efficiently, and at greater scale. Because that’s how good takes over. We started with a single customer, the Nightingale-Bamford School in New York City, which has provided kindergarten through high school education to girls and young women for nearly 100 years—and which, we’re proud to say, remains a Blackbaud customer today. The school needed a computerized billing system—a transformational innovation in 1981. From that single customer and its success, Blackbaud began. 4 Our Purpose Our Team Our Governance Our World About Blackbaud Today, we serve the entire social good community, which includes: • Nonprofits • Arts and cultural organizations • Higher education institutions • Foundations • K–12 schools • Companies • Healthcare organizations • Individual change agents • Faith communities Millions of users in over 100 countries raise, grant, and invest more than $100 billion each year. But despite Blackbaud’s growth and evolution, we remain singularly focused on our mission: to help good take over. We do that by providing cloud software, services, data intelligence, and expertise that connect and empower people to drive impact for social good. We pride ourselves on our unique role in powering an Ecosystem of Good®—helping people and organizations who are working to build a better world thrive by connecting them with one another. But we don’t just power this Ecosystem with our software; we also enthusiastically participate in it. As a giveback to the community we serve, the Blackbaud Institute brings together the best minds in philanthropy to deliver leading-edge research that accelerates the impact of social good. We uncover insight from the most comprehensive data set in the social good community and publish findings and best practices to empower readers to drive greater impact in their work. 5 Our Purpose Our Team Our Governance Our World About Blackbaud We encourage employee choice in the way we give, and we donate 3% of our pretax profit to support causes that reflect our team’s passions. In alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals, nearly half of our charitable donations represent our commitment to education, peace and justice, and ending poverty. Those three focus areas also reflect our deep commitment to We love what we do. And it’s not simply serving underrepresented minorities.

A singular question drives us At our 2018 user conference in London, we made forward every day: a donation to the Sophie Hayes Foundation, which helps human trafficking survivors achieve independence through employment. How can we innovate to help our 56% customers do even more good? Other Poverty Reduction Donations For the past 25 years, we have volunteered with and contributed to One80 Place in Charleston, a nonprofit organization that works to end homelessness and hunger one person at a time. 6 Our Purpose Our Team Our Governance Our World About Blackbaud Community Voice “I help good take over by inspiring hope through history, community engagement, and the invaluable promise of cultural institutions.” ELIJAH HEYWARD, Chief Operating Officer, International African American Museum Q: We’re proud to have our CEO, Mike Gianoni, Q: How will technology impact your operations? sit on your board of directors.

    DATABASE – CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM) a Good Database Is Critical to Fundraising and Especially to the Development of an Annual Campaign

    DATABASE – CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM) A good Database is critical to fundraising and especially to the development of an annual campaign. There are many options available that will work for nonprofits organizations from free (Salesforce - basic) to very expensive (and complicated) like Raiser’s Edge from Blackbaud. There are various applications and uses for the database: Constituent Management Constituent management is the traditional CRM equivalent of contact management. The difference, of course, is that constituent management can include donors, vendors, foundations, volunteers, alumni, students, and other groups. It also includes tools ranging from basic contact records to type classification, donation history, memberships, and social media engagement. Event Management Not all nonprofit CRMs offer event planning and management tools, but if your organization frequently plans charity dinners, auctions, conferences, etc., this feature is a must-have. The more competitive CRMs will let you schedule events, send invitations, track RSVPs, create seating charts, and let your team members check in and access this data from their mobile devices. Campaigns Marketing campaigns are the primary means for a non-profit organization to keep its constituents informed and solicit donations from new prospects. As sales are to profit-model businesses, so fundraising campaigns are to nonprofits. Luckily, you don’t need to spend hours designing pamphlets in Microsoft Office or adding email recipients to a newsletter one-at-a- time. Most nonprofit CRMs have helpful marketing automation features for multiple types of campaigns (email, direct mail, SMS, etc.). Donation Management Getting down to the nuts and bolts of fundraising, you’ll need a way to process donations when they happen.
