One of the best things we have done here on the GiftWorks team has been to cultivate great partnerships with nonprofit consultants across the US, Canada, Australia, and beyond. These relationships have enabled the GiftWorks word to travel well beyond where we can go ourselves. These consultants are able to provide hands-on help to nonprofit organizations looking to rise to the next level, and we are so appreciative when GiftWorks is part of that process. Check out some of the things our partners are doing and saying:
Laura Huth, President and CEO of doGood Consulting in Urbana, Illinois, is hosting a large database open house in October for nonprofits in her region. “Too many nonprofit organizations use programs like Excel or Access to store and try to manage information on their donors, special events, and volunteers. It’s laborious and can be error-ridden.” said Laura. “GiftWorks is a high-powered, low-cost, and easy-to-use system that can literally transform nonprofit operations, fundraising, and success.”
Mark Saffren, CFRE, of m3Development in Manorville, NY, contributes great content to help all of our clients think strategically. Check out his article from our June enewsletter here.
Duke Speer, of Park City, Utah, is a true GiftWorks guru and evangelist. He is a very frequent contributor to our GiftWorks User Group on Linked In. He and his colleague, Meeche White, of Ideal Solutions, represented GiftWorks at the Utah Nonprofits Association conference last week in Salt Lake City (that's Meeche in the photo below!).
Karen Schaller is a database expert in Exeter, Maine, who recently started her own practice after many years with a large firm. She provides our team with super candid and spot-on advice and recommendations on how to continuously enhance GiftWorks. She is a great advocate for the day-to-day user of GiftWorks and we know to listen, very closely, to what she tells us.
Susan Lucas of Third Sector Consulting based in Sydney, Australia, is making sure GiftWorks is known Down Under. Susan's energy and advocacy are wonderful and so appreciated - we are all excited to meet her in person when she visits us in Lancaster, PA on October 7 and 8!
Finally, please meet our Consultant Advisory Group here. This talented group provides our company with insight and advice on a daily basis for which we are extremely grateful.

Mary Pat Donnellon has been with Mission Research, the maker of GiftWorks, since its early days, working in every area of the company before becoming CEO in 2009. She now gets to do all the things she loves: leveraging great technology to help nonprofit organizations become better and stronger. Mission Research is a sustainable company; Mary Pat enjoys doing her part by walking or biking to work (most days!). She is also sustained by working with her talented colleagues at Mission Research and the company’s thousands of customers and partners.
