What a fundraiser can do next
  • See giving history and last interaction in one view.
  • Use saved views to work through lapsed, recurring, or tagged donors.
  • Record notes and preferences without losing them in a spreadsheet.

What changes after you stop managing donor work in spreadsheets

The CRM becomes the place your team actually works from, not a database you update after the real work is done.

Typical weekly CRM workflow
Review the right donors first

Open saved views for LYBUNT, SYBUNT, recurring donors, inactive donors, or custom tag groups.

See relationship context fast

Use donor detail pages to understand giving, preferences, notes, events, and recent team touches.

Record follow-up while it is fresh

Add notes, update statuses, and capture preferences directly where the donor record lives.

Keep data usable

Run duplicate review and import cleanup so your file stays trustworthy as the org grows.

Built around stewardship

Mission Sumo keeps donor details close to the conversations and follow-up work that actually grow relationships.

What teams can prove in the trial
  • Import a donor file and see duplicates before you commit to a larger rollout.
  • Create tags and saved views your team can use immediately.
  • Open a donor record and see giving plus follow-up context in one place.
  • Record one real donor interaction and one manual gift to test the workflow.
