Environmental Nonprofit Improves Donation Results
The mission
The Ammonoosuc Conservation Trust (ACT) collaborates with landowners and community partners in New Hampshire’s North Country to safeguard land for public benefit. By preserving farms, wild and working forests, waterways, and culturally significant sites, ACT fosters healthy communities. Through facilitating meaningful connections to nature and fostering community bonds, ACT creates opportunities for individuals to engage with and appreciate the natural world.
The challenge
The organization required software that offered greater flexibility in managing gift and donor relationships, alongside robust tracking capabilities to efficiently acknowledge donations.
“The main function that we needed was a solution to provide online access to all volunteers at all times. We knew that we needed to find some software that was going to be affordable for the smaller size of our organization, but also easy enough to use to get up and running quickly with little or no training.”

The solution
After careful consideration, DonorPerfect emerged as the preferred choice due to its comprehensive features and attractive pricing structure. The organization highlighted DonorPerfect’s scalability, which can accommodate their growing donor base, making it a more appealing option over alternatives like Blackbaud eTapestry.
The results
The transition to DonorPerfect has yielded significant improvements for the organization:
- User-friendly interface: DonorPerfect’s intuitive interface and easy access to the system have facilitated efficient management of contacts and generation of reports.
- Continuous learning opportunities: Recorded webinars lessened the learning curve for staff and volunteers, ensuring ongoing skill development and system proficiency.
- Substantial growth: In less than two years, the organization’s donor network expanded significantly, highlighting DonorPerfect’s effectiveness in supporting donor management and growth initiatives.
These enhancements have not only streamlined donation processes but also positioned ACT for continued success in fulfilling its mission of safeguarding land for public benefit and fostering healthy communities.
