Pain points

Managing the grant application process

Foundations often struggle to manage the grant application process from start to finish effectively. This complex journey involves efficiently handling applications, fostering collaboration among reviewers, and centralizing the application process. Let Fíonta design and build an integrated solution built on Salesforce’s Nonprofit Cloud to make the process more manageable and efficient, allowing you to spend more time increasing your impact.

Inefficient communication

Foundations rely on effective communication with grantees and stakeholders to build trust, foster collaboration, and ultimately enhance the impact of their philanthropic endeavors. However, this can be a complex task, often fraught with challenges related to email outreach, scheduling reminders, and tracking interactions. Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud is a versatile communication hub tailored to meet these needs.

Limited ability to assess impact

Foundations often struggle to report their impact in real-time. Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud goes beyond streamlining grant management; it also equips foundations with powerful impact measurement tools that have the potential to revolutionize the way they assess and enhance their grantmaking efforts. These tools enable foundations to collect and analyze valuable data from their grantees, ushering in a new era of project assessment and overall impact evaluation. Foundations that embrace impact investing, a powerful strategy for generating positive social and financial returns, often grapple with the complexities of managing these investments and, through our partnership with Amp Impact, foundations can track assets, assess social and economic returns, and effectively manage portfolios.

Manual reporting and compliance

Foundations often struggle to generate dynamic reports and ensure that grantee and impact data is safe and secure. Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud is a dynamic solution that not only streamlines reporting processes but also ensures adherence to compliance requirements, addressing foundational needs precisely.

Increasing donations with holistic view of supporters

They followed our lead when it came to dependencies, complexities, and details and utilized  their expertise and knowledge of Salesforce to help us make connections and recommendations. Prison Fellowship International
The tools Fíonta has at its disposal make the conversion process a breeze. I have been through this process a few times in my career, and this is, without a doubt, the easiest and most efficient conversion I have ever experienced. I highly recommend that all member-based nonprofits give Fíonta serious consideration for their needs. American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists
A lot of implementation partners don't act as true "partners" but Fíonta absolutely did! We felt like true partners throughout the project and as a result, our transition to Pardot was smooth and our team felt ready to jump right into the product without any hitches from the implementation. A breath of fresh air for our organization! The Chicago Council on Global Affairs
