FOUNDER'S NOTE

Led by the

A fundraiser built this.
Not a software company.

For the whole development team

Sapling is built for the development directors, gift officers, and EDs who fundraise every day.

We wanted a tool that actually fits the way nonprofits work.

“I saw the problem — small nonprofits lack effective toolsfor growth. They often get stuck in outdated systems builtfor “data entry” rather than “donor relationship growth.”
That’s why I created Sapling — a platform that simplifiesfundraisers’ work and helps them raise more with less effort.”
