Case Study: Wake Tech Foundation strengthens donor engagement and raises more funds with Blackbaud

Wake Tech Foundation - Customer Case Study

Wake Tech Foundation, the fundraising arm of Wake Tech Community College, faced inefficiencies from using two separate, nonintegrated fundraising systems. As a small team serving a large institution, they needed a simple, user-friendly solution that provided up-to-date donor data, streamlined workflows, and mobile access so staff could respond quickly and work on the road.

They migrated to Blackbaud’s cloud suite—Raiser’s Edge NXT, Financial Edge NXT (plus Online Express and Merchant Services)—to fully integrate development and finance. The implementation was straightforward and delivered faster reporting, better donor segmentation, trend analysis and forecasting, improved retention tracking, and greater staff efficiency and confidence, enabling stronger fundraising and more support for students and faculty.
