We’re excited to announce the latest updates to our platform, with today's release focusing mostly on Donor Management. This includes several exciting features: from more robust campaign management to personalized donation tracking. The new functionality is designed to give you even greater control and insights into your fundraising activities.
Let's dive in and discover what's new in AwardSpring!
Campaigns
We know that keeping campaigns organized and on track is the key for fundraising success. That’s why we’ve designed the Campaigns page for you to efficiently manage and oversee all fundraising initiatives in one place.
Whether setting key metrics, tracking donations, or monitoring progress toward goals, the Campaigns feature provides the clarity and control you need to ensure that every initiative is on the path to success.
The Campaigns page acts as both a list and a mini-dashboard, offering a clear overview of each campaign’s performance— total gifts raised, expected pledges, and how close you are to reaching your goals.
Connecting a gift or pledge to a campaign has never been easier: just expand the gift details and use the “Campaign” dropdown to select the appropriate initiative—it’s that simple!
Giving Records
Managing all incoming contributions is equally vital for successful fundraising. To streamline this process, we've built a centralized hub for tracking all giving records all in one place.
Accessing the full history of gifts and pledges on this page couldn't be simpler or more intuitive — whether you're looking for a donation by donor name, fundid, subject, campaign, or amount, the robust search functionality makes it easy to find exactly what you needed.
Custom Fields for Gifts and Pledges
Understanding that each organization has unique fundraising and reporting needs, we've introduced Custom Fields for Giving Records. This simple but powerful feature allows you to create additional data points that are perfectly aligned with your unique workflow.
Whether your focus is on tracking appeals, organizing receipt batches, managing solicitations, monitoring fund codes, or any other critical data points, this feature now seamlessly adapts to your needs.
Follow these simple steps to add a new custom field:
Navigate to Settings → Donor Profiles → Custom Fields (Giving)
Choose the data type (open-ended text field or date)
Set a title and choose display settings for gifts, pledges, or both
Save your changes
The custom fields are now available for all the giving activities!
