Discounts to Blackbaud’s eTapestry now available

Through TechSoup Asia-Pacific, Blackbaud is offering 25% discounts on the annual subscription fees for eTapestry, an all-in-one fundraising solution that can enable NGOs to collect and manage donor information, receive helpful insights & reports and receive funds/donations.

The offer comes in two different packages, Starter and Pro, for either 1 or 3-year packages. These will also include a consultation call with Blackbaud’s own experts, enabling Blackbaud to better understand the recipients’ needs and how they can address those through eTapestry.

Singapore launch event

To officially announce its launch in Southeast Asia, Blackbaud and TechSoup Asia-Pacific co-hosted a free half-day workshop and networking lunch at Work Central, Singapore. The workshop was attended by 61 representatives from 45 unique charities based in Singapore, as well as Greg Simmons & Maria McDonnell from Blackbaud and Jed Adao from the TechSoup Asia-Pacific team.

Effective fundraising and donor management were the key topics covered throughout the workshop – both of which being very vital to the sustainability of any charity or NGO. Throughout the workshop, the attendees were treated to a variety of talks related to fundraising and donor management. These included global trends that shape and affect giving, differing approaches to giving from varying age groups as well as key learnings and insights derived from hands-on experiences in working with different charities across the region.

In addition, the charities in attendance were also treated to a deep-dive on how eTapestry works. Throughout this session, charities were able to experience an interactive demo on eTapestry’s functions and features in order to give them a better understanding on how these can be used to effectively manage donor networks and fundraising campaigns.

More to come in the future

With its launch receiving an amazing reception and the subsequent growing need for fundraising and donor management support from NGOs across the region, one can safely say that this only the start to more initiatives and collaborations ahead. One of the many things that can be expected in the near future is Blackbaud’s release of other key solutions such as Apricot (for project management) and Raiser’s Edge NXT (for fundraising) through TechSoup Asia-Pacific and the potential expansion of the discount offers to other key countries across Asia-Pacific.

To-date, Blackbaud’s exclusive discounts are available through TechSoup Asia-Pacific programs in Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, as well as through Australia via our local partner Connecting Up.
