Can we track donors and their full giving history?

Yes. Engine Awesome lets you configure a donor database with custom fields for contact info, giving history, campaign attribution, communication preferences, and any other data your organization tracks. Every interaction and gift is attached to the right donor record.

Can volunteers use the system too?

Yes. Every user on your application is included: staff, volunteers, and board members alike. You control what each role can see and do, so volunteers only access what they need.

Can we track grant deadlines and reporting requirements?

Yes. You can configure a grant tracking system with fields for funder name, award amount, application deadlines, report due dates, and current status. Automated reminders can alert your team before a deadline arrives.

How many donor records can we store?

The Pro plan includes 50,000 records and the Business plan includes 500,000, enough for most nonprofit donor databases. Both plans include unlimited users.

Can board members see what they need without accessing everything?

Yes. Engine Awesome supports role-based permissions. Set up a read-only role that exposes only the records and fields you want board members to see (program outcomes, grant status, donor totals) and hide the rest. They log in to the same workspace as staff but see a different view.

What You Can Build

Everything your organization needs in one system

Built around your programs, your donor relationships, and how your team actually works, not a generic nonprofit template.

Donor database and giving history

Every donor's contact details, giving history, campaign attribution, and communication log in one record you can search, filter, and report on. No more hunting across spreadsheets for a donor's last gift.

Fundraising campaign tracking

Set campaign goals, track donations against targets, attribute gifts to the right campaign, and see progress in real time across every active fundraiser.

Grant management

Track every grant application: funder, award amount, deadlines, report due dates, and current status. Your team stays ahead of every deadline without a separate calendar or tool.

Volunteer coordination

Schedule shifts, track volunteer hours, and manage availability, with role-based access so volunteers only see what is relevant to them.

Event and program management

Plan fundraisers, community events, and programs from one place. Attendees, logistics, volunteers, and outcomes all tracked in the same system.

Impact dashboards and reporting

Build the dashboards your board and funders want to see: program outcomes, donor retention, campaign performance, and volunteer hours, all in one view.

The Problem with Off-the-Shelf Tools

Why Nonprofit Software Usually Falls Short

The Fit Problem

Generic donor management tools are built for large organizations, not your specific programs, donor segments, and reporting requirements. You spend more time working around the software than working in it.

The Pricing Problem

Per-user software charges you more every time you add a volunteer coordinator or board member. With Engine Awesome, every staff member and volunteer is included for one flat price. No trade-offs about who gets access.

The Scale Problem

A grassroots community org runs differently from a regional advocacy nonprofit. Your system should match your mission structure, not force you into a generic nonprofit template built for someone else's programs.

Why Non-Profits Choose Engine Awesome

Spend less time on admin, more time on mission

Stop managing your organization across disconnected spreadsheets and tools. One system your whole team can use.

Your whole team. One flat price.

How It Works

One connected system for your whole organization

From donor gifts to board reporting: donors, volunteers, grants, and programs all in one place.

Donor gives to a campaign

The gift is logged against the donor's record and attributed to the right campaign. Giving history, cumulative totals, and campaign progress all update automatically.

Staff follows up with a thank-you

The interaction is recorded in the donor record: date, channel, who followed up. Nothing falls through the cracks when staff changes or volunteers rotate.

Volunteer coordinator schedules an event

Volunteers are assigned shifts, notified of their schedules, and their hours are tracked, all in the same system as your donor and campaign data.

Grant deadline triggers a reminder

Your grant tracker flags an upcoming report deadline. The relevant staff member gets notified in time to prepare the submission. No missed deadlines.

Board sees the impact

Your board dashboard shows program outcomes, donor retention, fundraising progress, and volunteer hours, everything they need to govern confidently.
