Maximise Operational Efficiency With Industry Common Components & Enhanced Data Models
Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud leverages Industry Common Components and tailored Data Models to drive nonprofit efficiency in key areas like fundraising and grant management. These models enable nonprofits to streamline processes, improve engagement, and make data-driven decisions for greater impact.
At the core of Nonprofit Cloud are data models designed to track and manage essential nonprofit functions. For fundraising, these models support the entire journey—whether it’s managing major gifts, recurring donations, or one-time contributions. Similarly, the grant management model ensures nonprofits can track funding opportunities, applications, and awards efficiently.
Key Industry Common Components:
1. Industries Platform
The Industries Platform provides the foundation for Nonprofit Cloud’s customisable data models, enabling nonprofits to handle complex workflows like major gift tracking and grant management with ease.
2. Service Excellence
Service Excellence enhances constituent engagement by offering tools to track and manage interactions with donors, volunteers, and beneficiaries. This ensures that nonprofits deliver timely, personalised communication across their entire network.
3. Data Intelligence
Nonprofit Cloud’s Data Intelligence unifies structured and unstructured data, delivering predictive insights that help nonprofits make informed decisions. From tracking donor behaviour to measuring program success, Data Intelligence helps organisations stay ahead of the curve.
4. Deep Domain Capabilities
Salesforce’s expertise across various industries powers Deep Domain Capabilities in Nonprofit Cloud, offering sector-specific tools for grant management, program tracking, and donor engagement.
5. Process Automation
With Process Automation, Nonprofit Cloud reduces the complexity of managing gifts and grants by automating repetitive tasks. Whether it’s automating donation tracking, volunteer management, or grant disbursements, nonprofits can scale their operations without sacrificing efficiency.
Fundraising Data Models in Nonprofit Cloud Use Case
Nonprofit Cloud’s Fundraising Data Model captures various types of donations, including Major Gifts, Recurring Donations, and One-Time Donations. Each donation type follows a specific workflow, enabling nonprofits to track the entire process—from donor outreach to contribution receipt. This ensures that nonprofits can manage each gift type efficiently, without losing critical data.
For example, WaterAid used Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud’s fundraising model to enhance donor engagement and streamline donation management. With full visibility into donor behaviour and automated workflows, they increased fundraising efficiency and donor retention.

Each step is supported by additional components, such as proposal evaluations and funding disbursement tracking, to ensure transparency and efficiency.
