Why nonprofits outgrow spreadsheets and chat threads

Spreadsheets everywhere

Volunteer lists, grant dates and event plans live in different files, and none are up to date.

Volunteers come and go

When someone steps away, their tasks disappear with them.

No budget for pricey software

Most project tools charge per seat from day one.

Questions

Nonprofits FAQ

Is Organizer Buddy free for nonprofits?
The Free plan is free for any organization, including nonprofits: up to 5 people and 3 projects with no time limit and no credit card. Larger teams can upgrade to Pro.
Is it a volunteer management system?
Not exactly. It doesn't handle volunteer sign-ups or hour tracking. Nonprofits use it to coordinate the work: who's covering what, what's next and what's done.
Can board members see our progress?
On Pro, you can invite board members or funders as read-only guests to a specific project.
What happens to a volunteer's tasks when they leave?
Their cards stay on the board with the full handoff history, so the next person can pick up exactly where they left off.
