DonorElf is designed to help missionaries like you stay organized and focused on what matters most: building relationships with your ministry partners

It's worth investing in a tool that keeps you in the know

Know exactly: which ministry partners you need to communicate with and why
Save time:: don't reinvent the wheel trying to build your own tracking system.
Automatic imports:: DonorElf can automatically import your gifts and donor info for you (depending on your sending organization's accounting system)

You already have too much on your plate, so save time from trying to create your own system to track your ministry partners and let DonorElf do it for you

A database you can fully customize to fit your needs

DonorElf goes beyond merely importing your gifts and donors; it's a comprehensive CRM that lets you track everything about your ministry partners in one place.

All Ministry Partners: Track all your ministry partners (including prayer partners, potential partners, and donors) in one place.
Custom Fields: Add your own custom fields to track all the information that matters to you.
Tasks: Easily create tasks to remember who you need to communicate with.
Remember Dates: Record important dates like birthdays and anniversaries.
Search: Locate specific people in seconds with advanced search and filtering.
Mailchimp Sync: Sync your contact emails seamlessly with Mailchimp.

Raise the culture of donor care in your mission organization

Most organizations can benefit from ministry partners being better engaged and cared for by the missionaries they partner with. After all, it's never been just about getting people to donate money.

But if missionaries don't have a good system to stay organized and clearly know what's going on with their ministry partners, then those relationships start to be strained. And that not only affects the missionaries, but it also affects how people view the mission organization as a whole.

That means it's not enough for mission organizations to just send contribution and accounting reports to their missionaries. Financial reports are just about money and completely lack anything to do with relationships. Missionaries need more. They need DonorElf 🙂

By providing your missionaries with DonorElf, you empower each missionary to better engage and care for their ministry partners, and a natural side effect is many missionaries will find they'll become fully funded sooner and stay fully funded. (but again, it's not just about the money)

You get what you pay for with DonorElf

: No, not all missionaries have to use DonorElf. The organization can get setup on DonorElf for free and then offer it to the missionaries.

Of course, there's a benefit to having all missionaries in your organization use DonorElf because everyone will be using the same system which simplifies training and support.
: Yep! If your organization is currently using DonorHub, we can import your data into DonorElf.

If your entire organization is going to use DonorElf, then we recommend bypassing DonorHub and have DonorElf import your data directly because this greatly simplifies the import process. It also saves money because you won't have to pay for a DonorHub subscription.
: No, DonorElf doesn't replace your accounting systems but rather it complements it. Accounting systems weren't made for missionaries and DonorElf fills that gap by providing a user-friendly interface for missionaries to manage their gifts and donors.
: No, DonorElf doesn't handle donations directly. Instead, it integrates with your accounting system to automatically import gifts and donors.
: Yes, most of the time it can. One of the great things about DonorElf is its ability to consolidate information from disparate systems like donation processing software and accounting software. It will bridge the gap for your office staff as well as your missionaries to provide them what they need, when they need it.

However, around 80% of our organizations that have a separate donation processing system only upload information from the donation processing system. They have found the expense information in the accounting system isn’t as important for the missionaries to see in DonorElf. So you can decide whether or not you want to combine both systems in DonorElf.
: This depends on several factors, but on average it can take anywhere from a week to a few months.

If we've already integrated with your accounting software, then we can often perform the integration within a week and then your pilot users can start testing it out.

If we haven't integrated DonorElf with your accounting software yet, then it can take a couple months.
: We can bring in hundreds at a time. We usually want to pilot the system with a few key users in the office and field first.

From there, we can flip the switch and bring on all of your missionaries at once. We can can also do a tiered roll-out where we bring in a group of missionaries at a time. We’ll work with you to determine the best approach.
: DonorElf has successfully onboarded and supports several large organizations (1,000+ missionaries) that started out with the same concerns. With that said, we are happy to provide references of other large organizations who are enjoying DonorElf. Just contact us and we'll pass the information along.
