Case Study: Richmond Jewish Foundation boosts donor engagement with AccuFund

Richmond Jewish Foundation boosts online donations 300% with Accufund

The Richmond Jewish Foundation, an independent philanthropic organization, faced challenges with an outdated FundWare accounting system and lacked a constituent database, hindering efficient donor and fund tracking. Their labor-intensive processes for donations, grants, and scholarships were detrimental to donor relations. They sought a comprehensive solution from Accufund to streamline operations and free up staff to build personal relationships.

Accufund implemented its Accounting Suite, which included the Allocation Management and Funder/Grants Management modules, and provided a customized integration with Salesforce. This solution automated income allocation, bank reconciliation, and fee calculations, while online portals made it easier for donors to give and for applicants to apply for scholarships. The results included a 300% increase in online donations in the first year, significantly less time spent on administrative tasks, and improved internal controls and reporting for the foundation.
