The Problem

Most university fundraising teams are still duct-taping the post-gift experience together.

📊
Siloed Finance & CRM Data

Your finance team runs in Banner, Workday, or Financial Edge. Your donor relations team lives in Raiser's Edge. Reconciling them manually takes days — and donors are left waiting.

📨
Manual Endowment Reporting

Building individual fund utilization reports by hand is unsustainable at scale. Meanwhile donors wait months for updates on how their gifts were put to work.

⚖️
Restricted Fund Compliance Risk

Tracking donor intent across hundreds of restricted endowment funds manually is a compliance liability. One missed restriction can permanently damage trust — and your institution's reputation.

How It Works

From data-mapped to deployed in weeks, not months.

1
We Understand Your Setup

In our conversation, we map your current workflows, data sources, and the gaps costing your team time and compliance risk.

2
We Configure for Your Institution

FundMiner connects live to your CRM, finance system, and other technologies — Financial Edge NXT, Raiser's Edge, Workday, Banner, and Oracle — with no SFTP required.

3
Your Team Runs Faster

Automated donor reports, real-time fund utilization tracking, and full compliance visibility — all in one place. Your team focuses on donors, not data entry.

Outcomes

What university fundraising teams gain when manual goes away.

📈
Fund Utilization Up 20%

UTEP increased fund utilization by 20% after gaining real-time visibility into every fund — putting more donor dollars to work.

🔒
Zero Compliance Gaps

Every fund tracked against donor intent, automatically. Fort Lewis College achieved complete donor report coverage — every donor received a personalized impact report, on time, for the first time.

🔗
Finance + CRM, Connected

One source of truth instead of endless reconciliation. Live API connections to Banner, Financial Edge, Workday, and Raiser's Edge — no nightly SFTP imports.

"FundMiner is a critical tool for unlocking the liquidity in neglected endowed funds. Nonprofits can 'find' real money in their finance systems — it's almost like shopping in your own closet for those forgotten treasures."
