COO

“In 2026, our non-profit wanted to move forward where on-line payments and ticket sales could be collected and tracked for annual membership dues as well as for paid and/or free ticketed events. ”
PJ

Pam J.

Officer

“My non-profit (EducationEquity Foundation, which provides free MCAT Prep to low-income underrepresented premeds, taught by peer tutors who recently scored VERY well on their own MCATs) hasn't yet pursued donations much, so I have little to add about its performance.”

Manager

“The email creation element is still a bit crude and clunky and site navigation can be counter-intuitive (to me at least).”
