Welcome to the Future of Nonprofit CRM

Salesforce is the #1 platform for nonprofits. Start where you are. Grow where you need.

For over a decade, nonprofits have trusted Salesforce's Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP) to serve as the foundation of their data infrastructure. Since 2009, it has delivered a powerful starting point for thousands of organizations.

Then came 2023. Salesforce unveiled Nonprofit Cloud (NPC) — a sophisticated, enterprise-grade solution built on the Industry Cloud. It’s robust, scalable, and packed with features.
