Serving nonprofits worldwide
On one donor record

On every record
One platform, one donor record
Most nonprofits run a stack: a generic CRM for donors, a checkout for gifts, a workaround for sponsorship, a separate tool for missionary support, a different platform for mission trips, an email tool, a mailings vendor, a P2P add-on. The donor record fragments across every tool. Reporting becomes a quarterly export-and-reconcile exercise. Major-donor cultivation runs on a hunch instead of full relationship history.
Gratona consolidates all of it on one record. A donor who sponsors a child, supports a missionary, sends their teen on a short-term trip, and underwrites the year-end campaign shows up as one person, with full relationship history, AI-grounded wealth capacity, and an optimal-ask calculator ready for the next visit.

Built for the way nonprofits actually work
Sponsorship-first from day one
1:1, community, pooled, and hybrid sponsorship models. Sponsor-to-recipient messaging with AI translation in most major languages. Photo privacy controls. Multi-program support. Categories Bloomerang, Neon, and Salesforce do not ship.
AI donor intelligence on every record
Wealth capacity, optimal-ask calculators, relationship maps, and messaging guidance, grounded in real data with citations and confidence scoring. Not a chat box. Major gifts officers walk into every visit with a research department behind them.
Multi-entity, multi-currency, multi-country
Native multi-entity hierarchy with cross-entity rollup reporting, multi-currency at gift-time and report-time, per-entity audit logs, and per-jurisdiction tax receipting (US 501c3, UK Gift Aid, Canadian CRA, AU DGR).
Tiered pricing by commitment, not per seat
Adding staff never changes the subscription cost. Current plan details live on the pricing page so packaging stays accurate as pricing changes. Modules bundle progressively at higher tiers.
Sponsorship + CRM + checkout in one
Native donation forms with Apple Pay and Google Pay, recurring lifecycle with payment recovery, peer-to-peer pages, mailings, journeys automation, and a full donor mobile app, on every plan. Replaces a separate checkout vendor and a separate CRM.
Live in 1–2 weeks, not 3–9 months
Self-service setup. Free migration support from Bloomerang, Neon, Salesforce NPSP, Raiser's Edge, and DonorPerfect. White-glove migration for multi-entity and global-scale deployments. No implementation partner required.
Stitched-stack math
One platform · one bill
A typical mid-size nonprofit pays for a CRM, a donation checkout, a sponsorship workaround, a trip-fundraising tool, an email platform, and a mailings vendor, separately. Gratona replaces all six on one donor record, for less than a stack of point tools.
Current plan details live on the pricing page; your math varies by volume.

“Everything we needed was there and then some. Being able to turn daily operating duties over to a program that runs in the background of our website was an answer to prayer. I am sure more children were able to get an education because of HelpYouSponsor.”
Danny Cunningham
President, 4 Him in Africa Ministries
“Since 2014, HelpYouSponsor has been a cornerstone of our mission to bring hope to children in extreme poverty in Nicaragua. This program has been instrumental in connecting sponsors with children and ensuring every child receives the care they deserve.”
