We believe fundraising isn’t just about collecting donations – it’s about building meaningful relationships, tracking impact, and creating long-term support. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that Givecloud is partnering with Little Green Light, one of the nonprofit world’s most trusted donor-management platforms.
This integration brings together Givecloud’s flexible giving tools and LGL’s CRM power – giving nonprofits a seamless way to both receive gifts and manage donor relationships, without juggling spreadsheets, CSVs, or multiple systems.
Why This Partnership Matters
For many organizations – especially small or lean teams – keeping track of donors, gifts, memberships, store purchases, and recurring giving can get messy fast. Disconnected systems can lead to duplicate entries, missed acknowledgments, and lost time following up.
By connecting Givecloud + Little Green Light via Zapier, nonprofits can:
- Capture donor and contribution information automatically — every donation, membership, or purchase flows directly into your CRM.
- Avoid duplicate entries — with matching by name + email, LGL helps keep records clean and consistent.
- Reduce manual data entry — so your team spends less time copying data and more time building relationships.
- Focus on stewardship and mission, not admin — because when data flows smoothly, you can prioritize what matters most: your impact and your supporters.
In short: this is about making your tools serve you, not the other way around.
How It Works (Without the Tech Headache)
Getting started takes only a few steps — no coding required, no complicated setup.
1. Log into Zapier (create a free account if you don’t have one).
2. Use the Givecloud + Little Green Light Zap template we’ve prepared, preconfigured so you don’t have to build from scratch.
3. Choose your trigger (e.g., “New Donation”, “New Supporter”, “Store Purchase”, “Membership Payment”).
4. Connect your Givecloud and LGL accounts.
5. Map the data fields (email, name, gift amount, date, gift type, etc.).
6. Run a test — then turn your Zap on.
From that moment on: whenever someone gives through Givecloud (donation, membership, or store), their information — along with gift details — is automatically added to your Little Green Light database.
For nonprofits with recurring donors, multiple forms, or varied giving channels, this means one unified source of truth — without extra work.
What This Enables You To Do
With Givecloud + LGL working together, you get more than just clean data. You get the foundation for better donor care, smarter stewardship, and sustainable growth.
- Instantly recognize returning donors, even if they give through different forms (donation, membership, store).
- Tag and organize gifts by campaign, appeal, event, or custom fund — all automatically.
- Follow up with donors faster, using up-to-date info.
- Run reports or segment supporters in LGL without spending hours manually importing lists.
- Offer donor experiences (through Givecloud) while maintaining CRM integrity (through LGL).
If you’ve ever wished you could spend less time wrangling data, and more time connecting with donors, this partnership was built for you.
Our Shared Mission
At Givecloud, we believe technology should amplify generosity, not create busywork. It should make giving feel intuitive, meaningful, and human. Little Green Light shares that philosophy: helping nonprofits stay organized, donor-focused, and mission-driven.
Together, we’re offering a simple truth: you shouldn’t have to choose between “great donor experience” and “CRM integrity.” With Givecloud + Little Green Light, you can have both.
