The Bloomerang constituent summary

See the impact of your efforts.

Having a donor database with a constituent Engagement Meter™ that can capture and visualize interactions with your organization allows fundraisers to take action on an individual level.

The Bloomerang timeline

Use built-in reporting templates.

We’ve got you covered with the standard reports that all fundraisers need, including LYBUNT, SYBUNT, Pledge Reminders and Downgrades – as well some you may not have thought of, such as One-Time Donors, Household Averages and Lapsed Donors.

A lapsed donor report in Bloomerang

Trend reporting

Filter on which donors have downgraded, which donors have lapsed, and what actions you took that may have contributed to those results. You can identify constituents based on both transactions and interactions, or any combination of timeline entries.

An address change after NCOA updates

Nightly NCOA updates

No matter how much a donor loves your mission and impact, they are not very likely to proactively inform you that they have a new address. Addresses are automatically updated in the database, and changes are displayed in the address note.

The TrueGivers dashboard

Nightly deceased suppression

As part of the NCOA updates, deceased constituents are marked as Deceased in Bloomerang. Search the constituent in your NCOA Dashboard to see if there is additional information like deceased date and a link to an obituary.

Birth year updates

Nightly birth year updates

Want to segment your communications by the age of your constituents? As part of the NCOA updates, you’ll also have updated birth year information on a nightly basis. Perfect for planned giving and bequest marketing!

Bloomerang support

Learn more about our world-class support.

No matter what fundraising software you purchase, the best software is always going to be the one you are comfortable using. For fundraisers, that often means having the best team behind them.

Because of this, we’ve decided that every customer has free access to chat and email with our Customer Support Team. A few years ago, one of our wonderful customers described our Customer Support Team as “both helpful and human,” and our team has taken that motto to heart. We guarantee that any time you work with our team, you will always be working with a real human employed by Bloomerang who will keep working for you until your questions are answered.
