How does HYS handle multi-entity legal separation?

Each entity is a first-class tenant inside your HYS account with its own permissions, audit log, tax-receipt configuration, and per-entity P&L. Roll-up reporting is opt-in by role: HQ users with the appropriate scope see consolidated dashboards, while local staff see only their entity. Auditors receive entity-segregated logs.

Can each affiliate keep its own brand?

Yes. Per-entity branding for sponsor portals, donor portals, donation forms, tax receipts, and email composer. The HQ can publish a denominational template that affiliates customize within bounds.

What about multi-currency?

Multi-currency at gift-time (donors give in their local currency) and at reporting-time (HQ rolls up in your reporting currency with FX handled automatically). Each entity issues tax receipts in the appropriate jurisdiction's format and currency.

How does sponsorship work across multiple denominational entities?

Run sponsorship programs at HQ, at the mission board, or at any affiliate. Sponsors flow through one record so a person who sponsors a child in Country A and supports a campaign in Country B sees one relationship with the denomination — not 14 separate receipts.

How long does denominational migration take?

Most denominations are live in 2–6 weeks depending on entity count and source-system fragmentation. Free migration support across all entities. We map per-entity custom fields, dedupe cross-entity donor records, and run a sandbox cutover with finance before go-live.

What does this typically cost a 25-entity denomination?

One HYS subscription priced on commitment volume across the whole denomination, not per-entity license. For most denominations replacing 25 separate Bloomerang or Salesforce instances, the savings are 60–80% before counting the value of having one donor record. We'll model your specific situation.

HYS for Denominations

Run your whole denomination on one platform

Name: HYS for Denominations
Brand: HelpYouSponsor
Availability: InStock

One donor record across the denominational HQ, every entity, every program. Sponsorship, donor CRM, fundraising, missions, and AI cultivation in one place.

Denominational HQs run multiple legal entities, country offices, mission boards, and program lines — and most CRMs collapse them into a single tenant or force a separate license per entity. HYS for Denominations is a sponsorship-grade nonprofit operating system built for the way denominations actually work: parent-and-affiliate hierarchies, cross-entity rollup reporting, segregated audit logs, multi-currency, and unified sponsor-and-donor records that follow a member from local church to national initiative to international mission. AI cultivation, mission-trip support, and integrated grant tracking are built in.

The Problem

Generic nonprofit CRMs assume one legal entity. Denominational HQs are running 5, 25, or 200 — and the workarounds are painful. Each affiliate buys its own license, donor records are fragmented, the HQ has no consolidated view of giving across the whole denomination, multi-currency reporting is a quarterly spreadsheet exercise, and mission-trip support, sponsorship programs, and grant tracking each require a separate tool. Every annual report becomes a data-engineering project. And nobody — not the HQ finance team, not the development office, not the executive committee — has a unified view of the donors funding the whole mission.

The Solution

HYS for Denominations runs the whole structure on one codebase, one donor record, one bill. Native multi-entity hierarchy (parent → regions → entities → programs). Cross-entity rollup reporting with permissions. Multi-currency at gift-time and at consolidation-time. Per-entity tax-receipt logic (US 501c3, UK Gift Aid, Canadian CRA, AU DGR). Sponsorship programs, mission trips, donor cultivation, fundraising campaigns, grants, and AI donor intelligence — all on the same record. The HQ sees consolidated giving; affiliates see only their own. Donors see a single relationship with the denomination, not 12 disconnected receipts.

Inside HYS for Denominations

Native multi-entity hierarchy with role-based scoping

Model your denomination the way it actually exists: HQ at the top, regional bodies under it, local entities and programs underneath. Staff at HQ see consolidated giving; regional staff see only their region; local staff see only their entity. Donors flow through the hierarchy with one identity, so a member who gives to the local church, sponsors a child in the international mission, and supports a denominational fundraising campaign shows up as one person — not three duplicate records.

Cross-entity rollup reporting and consolidated dashboards

Run a single "total giving across the denomination" dashboard with one click. Filter by entity, region, program, country, or campaign. Roll up multi-currency revenue with FX handled automatically. Export per-entity P&L for finance and consolidated views for the executive committee. Annual reports stop being a quarter-long data-engineering project.

Sponsorship, missions, and AI cultivation on the same record

Most denominational platforms do donor records — and force you to bolt on sponsorship, mission trips, and donor cultivation as separate tools. HYS ships sponsorship programs (1:1, community, pooled), mission trip management with Checkr background checks, AI-translated sponsor-recipient messaging, and AI wealth intelligence with optimal-ask calculators on the same record as your donors. Major gifts officers walk into a denominational stewardship visit knowing the donor's full relationship with every entity.

How it works

1

Model your denomination

Set up your hierarchy: HQ, regions, entities, programs. Each level inherits permissions and reporting scopes. Add affiliates over time without a re-implementation.

2

Migrate every entity onto one record

Free migration support imports donor records, giving history, sponsorships, recurring schedules, and custom fields from Salesforce NPSP, Bloomerang, Neon, Raiser's Edge, or DonorPerfect across every entity. Duplicates are flagged so a member who gives to multiple entities becomes one record.

3

Configure roles and reporting scopes

HQ staff get consolidated dashboards. Regional staff see only their region. Local staff see only their entity. Finance gets per-entity P&L. The executive committee gets the rollup. Auditors get segregated logs per legal entity.

4

Run sponsorship, missions, fundraising, and cultivation

Sponsorship programs across the denomination, mission-trip individual fundraising for short-term teams, fundraising campaigns at HQ and entity level, and AI donor intelligence on every major donor — all on the unified record.

Who uses this

Evangelical denominational HQ with a global mission board

Run sponsorship programs through the mission board, donor cultivation at HQ, fundraising campaigns at affiliated camps and conferences, and short-term mission trips for member churches — all on one HYS account. HQ finance closes monthly with a consolidated dashboard; each entity gets its own per-entity P&L without manual reconciliation.

Multi-country denominational network

HQ in the US, country offices in 6 nations, programs running in 14 countries. Each country office uses its own currency, issues its own tax receipts under local rules (UK Gift Aid, Canadian CRA, AU DGR, US 501c3), and reports up to HQ in USD. AI cultivation surfaces major-donor opportunities across the whole network.

Diocesan or denominational stewardship office

100+ parishes or local entities, each with its own giving history. The stewardship office sees donor relationships across the whole diocese, identifies cross-parish major donors with HYS Insights, and runs unified annual appeals while local entities retain control over their own list.
