Case Study: Research!America cuts reporting time by 80% with CharityEngine

How a membership-driven advocacy organization streamlined operations with a complete fundraising platform and CRM.

Research!America, a nonprofit alliance advocating for medical and health research, faced challenges with a fragmented system that managed fundraising, email, and advocacy across three separate platforms. This disjointed approach resulted in cumbersome manual reporting and inefficient membership management. To solve this, they turned to the vendor CharityEngine for a unified CRM and fundraising platform.

CharityEngine provided an integrated solution with advanced membership functionality and nearly 200 customizable reports. This allowed Research!America to automate renewals and streamline operations. The implementation resulted in an 80% reduction in the time required for reporting, freeing staff to focus on strategic initiatives and data-driven decision-making.
