X-WR-CALDESC:Presented by Idealware - NDANO members receive a 15 percent di
 scount.\n\nDonors are the lifeblood of your small organization\, volunteer
 s the strong backs upon which it is built. You rely on them\, and on the p
 artners and other constituents who interact with your nonprofit on a daily
  basis. Tracking them all involves creating and maintaining a lot of data.
  \n\nBut that data also needs to be accessible. A database is like a First
  Aid kit—it doesn’t matter what’s in it if you can’t get to it when you ne
 ed to. For example\, if a donor calls\, you want to be able to instantly a
 ccess their donation history\, their personal information and any other re
 levant data. Good luck doing all that with an Excel spreadsheet.\n\nThe ri
 ght donor management database makes it easy to see the relationships betwe
 en data and donors and other constituents\, and more importantly\, keeps t
 hat information accessible and reportable so that you can find and use it 
 the moment you need to. The good news is\, there’s a number of options on 
 the market. That’s the bad news\, too—if you’re a small organization on a 
 tight budget\, how do you distinguish between the systems and their featur
 es? How do you know which will best meet your nonprofit’s particular needs
 ? What’s important to consider when choosing?\n\nJoin Idealware’s Andrea B
 erry for a one-and-a-half-hour session built upon our comprehensive Low-Co
 st Donor Management Report\, newly updated in 2011\, for a closer look at 
 GiftWorks\, Common Ground\, CiviCRM\, eTapestry\, DonorPro\, Donor Perfect
  Online\, and other popular systems being used by small organizations on t
 ight budgets.\n\nWe’ll walk through everything you need to know to choose 
 the right database for your organization\, starting with overviews of the 
 most commonly used\, affordable databases on the market that give the pros
  and cons of each. We’ll also talk about good data management practices an
 d planning\, and how to best assess your needs before you commit to a syst
 em—the best time to do so.\n\nBy the end of the session\, you’ll have ever
 ything you need to guide your organization through the process of selectin
