How Cimplify is helping charities that support women
We’re delighted to welcome four charities that support women to the Cimplify community. Over recent months, we’ve helped organisations in Brighton, Birmingham and Tyneside, alongside a charity that works nationally, get up and running with Cimplify, our CRM for charities built on Salesforce.
Between them, these charities support women who have experienced domestic abuse or modern slavery, women facing difficulties during pregnancy or accessing healthcare, and women dealing with a range of other challenging circumstances. Their services are different, but they share a practical need for a system that helps staff and volunteers keep track of the support they provide, coordinate their work and understand the difference it makes.
Understanding how charities really work
Charities from across the country continue to come to us for help with their CRM. One reason they give is that they want to work with people who understand the realities of a busy charity. A team can be handling referrals, coordinating appointments and supporting volunteers while also preparing reports for trustees and funders. A CRM has to fit into that working day and make it easier.
That’s where our personal approach comes in. We take time to understand what happens from the moment someone is referred, what staff and volunteers need to record along the way, and what the charity wants to learn about its services. Moving to a new CRM can feel like a complicated project. We help teams break it down into manageable decisions about what they need from day one and what they can build on later.
Ready to use, with room for what makes each charity different
Cimplify comes with much of the functionality charities need already built in, including tools to manage referrals, record support and report on activity and outcomes. Its reporting suite gives teams a way to see who they’re reaching, what support people receive and how outcomes change over time, using information they already record in their day-to-day work.
We then tailor Cimplify around what makes each organisation different. That might mean adapting the referral process to suit a particular service or setting up outcome reporting that reflects what progress looks like for the women it supports. Because the core system is already in place, charities get a CRM that feels built around them at a fraction of the cost of building one from scratch.
We’re committed to standing alongside the women’s sector as allies and using our expertise to support the people doing this vital work. Helping charities make a positive difference where it’s needed most is exactly why we do what we do.
If your charity is looking for a better way to manage referrals, coordinate support or report on your impact, we’d be happy to hear how your team works and talk through where Cimplify could help.
