Case Study: Lindbergh Schools Foundation increases giving by 455% with Bloomerang

Increasing giving by 455% with a switch from DonorPerfect to Bloomerang

Lindbergh Schools Foundation, an education nonprofit supporting students and teachers across eleven schools in St. Louis, MO, needed a better way to manage scholarships, grants, and community fundraising. After 20 years on DonorPerfect, staff found the old CRM clunky and not user friendly for either the team or donors, with complicated forms, manual reporting, and inefficient data entry.

By switching to Bloomerang’s unified giving platform, Lindbergh Schools Foundation streamlined donor management, automated scholarship reporting, improved branded donation forms and communications, and gained better visibility into donor activity. With Bloomerang, the foundation increased donor retention to 43%, grew monthly recurring donors by 455%, and boosted giving revenue by 14%, while also saving time on tasks like QuickBooks syncing and year-end statements.
