Case Study: Save the Children UK cuts data-import time by 60% and reduces duplicate donor records with Talend Data Integration

Creating a world where all children can fulfill their potential

Save the Children UK (SCUK) is a large international charity working in 120+ countries that needed to consolidate and cleanse data from more than 50 donation and communications streams into its CARE NG CRM. Facing growing volumes, duplicate records, donor fatigue risks and looming GDPR and transparency requirements, the import team struggled to meet SLAs and maintain operational efficiency.

SCUK chose Talend Data Integration for its affordability, ease of use by in‑house staff, scalability and support. Talend automated and standardized imports, cutting data‑import time by 60% (from three person‑days to half a person‑day), reduced duplicate records, improved donor insight and compliance visibility, and set the stage for further data‑quality and deduplication work.
