Case Study: Bay Area Restoration Council achieves accurate donor tracking and better stewardship with Sumac CRM

Bay Area Restoration Council - Customer Case Study

The Bay Area Restoration Council (BARC) is a community not-for-profit that organizes and advocates for clean-up and restoration projects in Hamilton Harbour and its watershed, balancing ecosystem health, recreation and local economic benefits. BARC struggled to get a clear, consolidated view of its membership and donor activity, so smaller recurring gifts went unnoticed and supporters weren’t consistently acknowledged.

Using Sumac’s easy-to-run reports and tracking tools, BARC gained a clear picture of donor activity and discovered that many small, repeated gifts added up to significant support. As a result they now track donors more accurately and are better able to thank and steward supporters, improving their fundraising visibility and relationships.
