Nonprofits & Foundations
Navigating the transition from NPSP to NPC
The transition from Salesforce Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP) to Nonprofit Cloud (NPC) offers a valuable opportunity for nonprofits to enhance their data management and operational efficiency.
This change involves thoughtful data conversion and system updates, yet is manageable with the right approach. It’s an important step for organizations seeking to leverage new functionalities and improve their impact. For a thorough understanding and practical tips on making this transition smoothly, read our guide for nonprofit teams, and don’t hesitate to reach out for more information.
Amputee Coalition
The Amputee Coalition (AC) required an update of their Salesforce system, which was 12 years old and no longer meeting their needs effectively. The configurations in AC’s system were established before the introduction of the Salesforce Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP), yet it incorporated elements like affiliations and relationships.
Additionally, the instance contained a substantial amount of data, much of it redundant or partial, accumulated over the past ten years through various third-party integrations and other sources. Learn how Fíonta helped AC implement Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud (NPC) and shifted data and workflows from their previous Salesforce instance to NPC.

The importance of color contrast
Color contrast on web pages is vital for enhancing readability, ensuring accessibility for users with visual impairments, and improving overall user engagement. Proper contrast helps in creating an intuitive navigation experience and maintains brand consistency.
To ensure your website meets these essential criteria, consider evaluating and optimizing the color contrast of your web content. For an easy and effective way to check and adjust color contrast, visit Who Can Use, a tool designed to help create more accessible and user-friendly web experiences.
