A Blackbaud Case Study
The Boys & Girls Club of Manchester is a nonprofit serving local youth through a main Clubhouse, after-school sites, and a summer camp. Facing limitations with its on-premises Raiser’s Edge 7—vulnerable servers, poor mobile access, and slow record retrieval—the organization needed a more secure, accessible fundraising and relationship-management solution.
They migrated to Raiser’s Edge NXT, completing a quick transition, investing in staff training, and adopting cloud hosting with automatic updates and stronger data security. The new platform gave the CEO and fundraisers instant access to donor information, supported their Advancing Philanthropy initiative, and helped the Club raise $422,000 in its 2016 annual campaign while adding 22 new “Champions for Kids” (bringing the total to 100).
