Blackbaud has developed a mobile app for users of its fundraising and CRM service
The Raiser’s Edge, enabling them to access supporter data on the move.

The app gives fundraisers and donor support staff access to the main constituent
information, including recent gift data, and it allows quick access to enter, edit,
and dictate actions and notes. Visit notes and actions can be updated to the main
database using the tool.

The app is available for iPhone, Android or Blackberry smartphone and is free, as
part of the maintenance support for clients from Blackbaud.

Loughborough University, Asthma UK and Chest, Heart and Stroke Scotland are among
the first charities to use it. Richard Barber, development services manager at Loughborough
University, said: “We have a number of fundraisers that spend a lot of time out 
of the office and updating notes has traditionally been a problem. The ability to
update the main database from the app has been really valuable and made our fundraisers’
lives much easier.”

Jerome Moisan, Blackbaud Europe’s managing director, added: “This is a tool for 
fundraisers, not techies, so we made sure it was simple-to-use, looked compelling
and provided easy access to data. Mobile is very much the future of fundraising,
both for donors and the fundraisers themselves, and we will continue to work with
our customers to ensure our products are reflective of that.”
