You keep a county's youth prevention work moving with a team of four. Right now the money you raise yourselves slips through five or six disconnected tools, and some of it never reaches the mission at all.
This looks honestly at what staying on spreadsheets costs you, and what changes when your giving lives in one place you own. It isn't built on doubling your fundraising. It's built on keeping what you already raise, and re-engaging the supporters already on your list.
Before the numbers, the reason for them.
For more than 20 years, Rise Up Reno's youth leadership program has helped young people across the county build the skills to stay away from substance misuse and suicide. Today that work reaches about 100 students in seven schools, alongside school-based mentorship and prevention education for families and teachers.
The money you raise yourselves doesn't sit in a grant line. It pays the people who make all of that happen. So the job this year is simple to say and hard to do on spreadsheets: bring your donors, events, and newsletter into one place your whole team can run, re-engage the supporters you already have, and keep more of every dollar before it reaches the mission.
One bundle brings your CRM, fundraising, and marketing together, with training, data conversion, and real-person support included.

Start with numbers you already live with, then turn on only the improvements that feel realistic for Rise Up Reno. Three are switched on to start. Adjust anything as we talk.
One home you own, not a coalition's spreadsheet. Every supporter, whether online, event, memorial, or mailed in, lands on one record in Bloomerang CRM, so anyone on your team can see who gave, when, and what to do next. No more lists living on one person's computer.
A March auction that loses nothing. Tickets, bidding, and checkout run in one connected flow in Bloomerang Fundraising, so no one walks away without paying, and every attendee becomes a supporter you can reach again.
Stewardship that runs while you work. Drag-and-drop newsletters, automatic receipts, and Penny pointing you to who's ready to give and who's about to lapse, so a team of four acts on the right people instead of guessing.
The status quo isn't holding steady. It is quietly leaking money and relationships every month you stay on it.
lost on last year's gala alone, to two disconnected auction platforms, unpaid balances, and a silent-auction tool that took a cut of your profits.
That is a third of this entire investment, gone from a single event. Change nothing, and next March can do it again.
Your pricing holds through October 16, and the $800 data conversion is waived if you sign by then. Your board meets October 13. Approve on the 13th and sign by the 16th, and you keep the waiver, lock the price, and leave the five-week setup clear runway before your March auction. Wait past the 16th, and that savings and that timeline are the first things you lose.
You don't have to double your fundraising for this to make sense. You have to stop losing what you already raise, and start seeing who's ready to give again. For $5,999, much of it covered by fixing a single broken event, you get a system you own, a cleaner year-end appeal, an auction that keeps every dollar, and your time back.
Impact is the goal. Keeping every dollar that funds it is within reach.
