A DonorPerfect Case Study
Futures & Options for Kids, a philanthropic organization funded by professionals in the futures and options markets, supports children’s health, education and welfare. After September 11 their office at Four World Trade Center was destroyed, many volunteers and donors were lost or affected, and critical data and recent backups were destroyed—leaving the charity to rebuild its operations from scratch.
They migrated to DonorPerfect Online, which provided web-based access, automatic offsite backups, and no on-site IT infrastructure. SofterWare converted an older backup, delivered training, and enabled staff and volunteers to work from multiple temporary locations; using event, grant-tracking and volunteer features they quickly organized a replacement fundraising dinner and restored operations much faster than anticipated.
