Release 4.6.6 - May 18, 2023
What’s new
New Fundraising Effectiveness Report
We know we just released an update last week, but we have one more update that we couldn't wait to share - the new Fundraising Effectiveness Report!
With this report, nonprofits can gain valuable insight into their fundraising performance, improve their board and stakeholder communications, as well as make better strategic decisions.
This report is generated in Sumac and is sent out once a month to a list of email addresses you specify.
To set this up, go to Utilities > Customize Database > Preferences. Then go to the Reports tab, which now has the option for Fundraising Effectiveness.
Please note: The Fundraising Effectiveness Report is a summary of your fundraising performance. The charts are based on the donations you received this year and in previous years. If you don't have any donation data, the charts will have empty spaces.
