Common problems

What holds NGOs back online?

Donors cannot find your track record

Funders looking for reports, registration and past results find only a social page, and move on to an organisation that publishes them.

Staff email scattered across free accounts

Programme officers write from personal addresses, so correspondence is lost when they leave and partners doubt who they are dealing with.

Updates reach too few people

Stories from the field and calls for volunteers stay in chat groups instead of reaching supporters who could share or give.
