Empowering Major Gift Teams to Raise More with Virtuous: Can Your CRM Do This?

In the evolving world of nonprofit fundraising, major gift teams need tools that help them build stronger relationships, increase donor engagement, and streamline operations. Many organizations struggle with data silos, outdated donor experiences, and complex systems that make it difficult to report on caseloads and retain donors. This is where Virtuous comes in.

The Problem: Unresponsive Platforms with One-to-Many Donor Experiences

Traditional CRMs often support a one-size-fits-all (“spray and pray”) approach to donor management, which fails to meet the expectations of modern donors. Today’s supporters expect personalized, responsive interactions that acknowledge their unique connection to your cause.

The Fundraising Landscape Has Changed

To thrive, nonprofits must move beyond transactional interactions and adopt a two-way, behavior-driven engagement model. This means:

  • Using data signals to trigger personalized interactions
  • Creating tailored donor experiences instead of mass outreach
  • Building deeper, trust-based donor relationships

What’s Possible with Virtuous?

Virtuous is more than just a donor database—it’s a responsive fundraising platform that helps nonprofits create meaningful connections at scale. By leveraging automation, donor signals, and advanced business intelligence, fundraising teams can:

1. Listen

Capture donor behaviors and preferences to better understand how they want to engage.

2. Connect

Build relationships in a contextual and collaborative way, ensuring engagement feels personal.

3. Suggest

Offer personalized giving opportunities that align with donor interests and capacity.

4. Learn

Continuously refine and improve engagement strategies based on donor responses.

A Better Approach to Fundraising

Virtuous empowers nonprofits with features that go beyond basic CRM functionality, including:

  • Marketing & Email Automation – Create customized donor journeys.
  • Online Giving – Streamline digital donations and increase conversion rates.
  • Volunteer Mobilization – Engage supporters beyond financial contributions.

  • Events Management – Enhance event planning and follow-up.
  • Business Intelligence – Optimize fundraising strategies with advanced analytics.
