It might seem incongruous that Salesforce (The number 1 Customer relationship management platform in the world), Best Salesforce partners and non-profit organisations can be on the same platform. These two entities seem to be pole apart, from different worlds, however, this is further from the truth. Salesforce and Best Salesforce partners believe that non-profits can leverage its power to improve its overall working and better utilise its funds. It provides a single connected platform where its various departments such as fundraising, program management, marketing, etc can be united and work united on a common purpose.
Mala Sahni of Gurgaon, India runs an animal shelter in the outskirts of the city. She has over 50 dogs housed in a sprawling landscaped location, with landscaped gardens and a serene environment. Her passion is to help as many dogs locally as she can. As usual, donor funding was a problem and she often dipped into her personal savings to keep the mission going. This is until she harnessed the power of Salesforce. By adopting this powerful tool, she was able to get a 360-degree view of her venture, put into practice ways to streamline her process, cut back on wasteful expenditure, connect in a more meaningful way with her supporters who were her donors and optimise her resources. The finances of the animal shelter started looking better and the funds started trickling in on a regular basis. Mala was able to breathe easily. She was grateful that she adopted Salesforce with the help of Best Salesforce partners and it helped put her non-profit back in the green.
