A UK-wide team of charity experts

Our Story

Donorfy has been powering remarkable charities, like yours, for a decade.

Our team is made up of third sector experts with well over 100 years combined experience in charity roles. We love working with great causes because we’ve come from great causes.

Our Purpose

Helping you do more of what matters

Our Values

doing things differently

We're not just a company, we're a community - our people and values are what truly sets us apart.
ADD SIMPLICITY

There's nothing that can't be made better by simplifying it. We strive to apply that to our solution and how we work.

BUILD IT TOGETHER

We build Donorfy according to the wants and needs of fundraisers like you. Community is key to everything we do.

CHALLENGE THE STATUS QUO

We challenge ourselves and each other, defy conventions and enjoy the freedom to think differently. 

DO WHAT'S RIGHT

People come before profit. We're radically transparent in our focus on helping charities to do what matters most.

No hard sell, just expert guidance

We'll help you decide if Donorfy is right for you.

Our lovely team have been in your shoes - and we don't work on commission. Their only goal is to help you decide if Donorfy is your best CRM fit.

They look at Donorfy with the keen eye of a fundraiser. They understand what you're trying to achieve, and have the experience and tools to help you do it. 

They'll listen to your challenges and explore if our cost-effective, intuitive donor management platform is the right solution for you.

What we do differently

doing things differently

We’ve created a lean, agile business to benefit staff, our charities and the planet.

WE RARELY TRAVEL

It's a waste of the planet's resources and precious time that we'd rather spend helping our clients; so we make extensive use of online conferencing tools.

WE DON'T HAVE AN OFFICE

We're not just a cloud-based platform; we're a cloud-based business. That means we're greener, simpler and more cost-effective. No fixed-location overhead means we can make Donorfy as affordable as possible for charities.

WE WORK WITH PARTNERS

Working with implementation partners means that your project is completely tailored to your organisation's needs. Check out our accredited Donorfy experts

Amy Walker
Operations Manager

There’s no doubt that a CRM project is complicated, made more complicated because we were starting from zero with no CRM and our charity’s data all over the place. We couldn’t have done it without the support of Duncan (our Customer Success Manager) who held our virtual hands throughout.

Chloe Skykes
CEO

We chose Donorfy for its value for money (as a tiny charity, the sliding fee scale helps keep costs low) and user-friendly design. You can tell the product has been developed by those who have used other CRMs in fundraiser roles.

Emily Richland

I love that I can speak to someone with fundraising experience themselves; I’ve found the advice and opinions of the Donorfy team really useful.
