Your mission.The technology follows.

Grant compliance, donor stewardship, board reporting, and a lean staff wearing five hats before lunch. We've built for organizations navigating all of it at once, with the same senior team and the same accountability we bring to any engagement.

Your mission
Sector fluency

We speak nonprofit before we speak technology.

Every recommendation starts with how your organization actually operates — not a generic implementation playbook built for a corporate IT department.

01

Grant compliance isn't optional

Systems are built to produce the reports your funders require from day one — not retrofitted after an audit request catches you off guard.

02

Donors and funders need visibility, not a login

Reporting that makes sense to people who check in quarterly, not daily — so your board doesn't need a training session to read a dashboard.

03

Donor and beneficiary data carries real weight

Financial information and client records deserve the same security discipline we'd bring to a regulated industry, because a breach costs more than money here.

04

Your team wears five hats before lunch

We build for the person who'll actually maintain this day to day — not an idealized full-time systems administrator you don't have.

Five capabilities. One accountable partner.

Not every organization needs all five. Here's what each one actually solves.

01SalesforceFor fundraising & donor management
Donors in Retained

Fewer donors lapse when follow-up doesn't fall through the cracks.

  • Grant lifecycle tracking from application through funder reporting, so nothing slips between spreadsheets
  • Donor journeys that flag lapsing supporters before they're gone, not after
  • Board-ready dashboards that don't require a Salesforce login to understand
02ServiceNowFor programs & case management
New In progress Resolved

Case management that keeps up with the people you serve.

  • Client and case workflows sized to your program staff, not an enterprise IT department
  • Internal requests and approvals that stop dying in email threads
  • Funder and outcome reporting pulled automatically, not assembled by hand every quarter
03vCISOFor security & compliance
Continuous cycle Monitor Respond Assess

Security leadership, without a security department.

  • A fractional CISO fluent in donor data sensitivity, beneficiary privacy, and grant compliance requirements
  • Risk assessments and policies a five-person staff can actually maintain
  • Incident response planning, so one bad week doesn't become the story that defines you to funders
04Custom DevelopmentFor custom programs & tools
Donor system Case system Spreadsheets One tool

Tools built for the program you actually run.

  • Purpose-built applications when off-the-shelf software doesn't match how you deliver services
  • Integrations that connect what you already have instead of forcing a costly replacement
  • Built to survive staff turnover, not dependent on the one person who built it
05AI & AutomationFor automating the busywork
Grant data Donor CRM Documents AI core Hours back

AI that saves your team hours — not one that needs a data scientist to run.

  • First drafts of grant and funder reports, generated from the data you already track
  • Early flags on donors likely to lapse, so outreach happens before they're gone
  • Answers to routine constituent and staff questions, grounded in your own documents
The Convene commitment

We solve for the mission.

Every system we build and every hour we save points at one thing: more capacity for the work only you can do — delivered by the same senior team, from first call to long after go-live.

We know how nonprofits actually make technology decisions.

Budget matters. So does board approval, grant timing, and not wanting a surprise invoice. Here's how we work within that, honestly.

01

Phased, not all-or-nothing

Scope matched to your fiscal year or grant cycle, so you're not signing up for a single massive commitment.

02

Pricing before commitment

You'll know the cost before your board has to approve anything — not after the project has already started.

03

Not dependent on one person

Staff turnover is real for nonprofits. What we build doesn't break when someone leaves, and neither does the partnership. We stay.

Built on trust

Donor data. Beneficiary records. Funder trust. We treat all three like they matter.

A breach here doesn't just cost money — it costs the trust your mission depends on. So the security discipline we'd bring to a regulated industry is the baseline, not an upsell.

In practice

For YU Workforce Development, three programs and six-plus systems came onto one custom-built Salesforce platform — constituent and donor data handled with the discipline a regulated industry would demand.
