Gratona Sponsorships
Donor management built around sponsorship relationships
Keep sponsors, donors, recipients, commitments, payments, and communication context together.
Manage sponsors and donors without splitting the sponsorship lifecycle across a generic CRM and program spreadsheets. Gratona Sponsorships connects giving, receipts, recurring commitments, household records, self-service, and sponsor-recipient history.

The Problem
A sponsorship program is more than a donation record. When donor profiles live in one system and recipients, commitments, payment status, and sponsor communication live elsewhere, staff have to reconcile the relationship by hand. A simple donor question can require multiple exports, and program reporting loses the context behind the gift.
The Solution
Gratona Sponsorships keeps the donor record connected to the sponsorship relationship. Your team can see giving, recurring commitments, receipts, household context, recipient relationships, communication history, and program status without rebuilding the lifecycle in custom fields or spreadsheets.

Inside Gratona Sponsorships
A donor portal connected to the sponsorship record
Donors can review giving history, access receipts, update supported payment details, and see the commitments available in their portal. Staff keep that activity on the same record as the sponsor-recipient relationship instead of reconciling a separate giving account.
Explore the feature →Recurring giving and payment follow-up in context
Recurring commitments, payment attempts, recovery status, and donor communication remain connected. Your team can see which relationship is affected before deciding how to follow up.
Explore the feature →Households and timelines without losing individual relationships
Group household giving for reporting while preserving each person's gifts, sponsorships, notes, and communication history. Staff can prepare for a donor conversation from one timeline instead of assembling context from separate tools.
