Why Your NGO's Next Fundraising Event Shouldn't Run on Five Different Tools
Running a fundraising event across WhatsApp, Google Forms, and a payment gateway creates compliance risk and lost donor data. Here's what changes when it's all one system
Release Notes 2.2
V2.2 introduces a full sponsorship feature for events — letting sponsors register their own attendees through a dedicated portal — along with receipt email delivery for event payments and a couple of receipt-handling fixes.
Release Notes 2.1
V2.1 introduces donations for training programs, fixed-price sponsorship tiers for events, three new subsite spotlight sections, and a set of reliability fixes ensuring payments and receipts are never silently lost.
Release Notes - Version 2.0
V2.0 introduces Hindi language support across the platform, smarter event checkout with configurable T&C and personalised confirmation emails, tighter controls over what attendees must provide at registration, and a clutch of fixes that resolve broken flows on subsite event pages.
Release Notes - Version 1.7.7
V1.7.7 adds optional donation collection and address capture at event checkout, a dedicated program detail page on subsites, and fixes to event payment totals and OTP login on subsite registration pages.
Release Notes - Version 1.7.6
V1.7.6 brings online payments for event registrations via PhonePe, a full check-in system with QR scanning and kiosk mode, the ability to pin a specific event on your subsite pages, and a range of improvements to event registration, beneficiary profiles, and general usability.
Why Your NGO's Website Is Always Out of Date (And What to Do About It)
Ask any NGO coordinator what happens after a project update gets logged into their system, and the honest answer is usually: "Someone has to remember to update the website too." Sometimes they remember. Sometimes they don't. Sometimes they do it a week later, after a donor has already seen stale information and silently moved on. This is not a people problem. It's a structure problem. And it's happening in almost every NGO that treats its website and its operations as two separate jobs.
Version 1.7.5
Version 1.7.5 is a focused Events release that improves exports and attendee support workflows, strengthens ticket security, and makes discount handling more reliable: New Orders financial export (CSV) for easier reconciliation; Better discount transparency during checkout and stricter discount code validation; New ticket retrieval + OTP verification and PDF downloads (for admins and attendees) ; Improved event registration fields with per‑ticket‑type scoping so hidden fields don’t block submissions
Version 1.7.4
Version 1.7.4 delivers a set of reliability improvements across Events and core data handling: Enhanced Events checkout for group registrations, optional PAN capture, and improved event banner/header rendering. Phone/contact data collection to ensure consistent, valid phone number storage and display across the application.
Does Your NGO Actually Know Where It Stands on Compliance?
Most NGOs find out during an audit. Here's a better way. There's a particular kind of silence that falls over a room when an auditor asks a question no one was prepared for. Not because the NGO did anything wrong. But because no one had ever sat down and mapped out exactly where they stood — on compliance, on governance, on finance controls, on HR obligations — all at once, in one place. That silence is expensive. And it's more common than most trustees want to admit.
Version 1.7.3
Version 1.7.3 delivers two major additions: A full Event Management module (events, tickets, registrations, and website publishing). A new Compliance Self‑Assessment tool that helps organisations review key compliance areas and receive a gap analysis report by email
Version 1.7.2
Version 1.7.2 is focused on better file uploads and photo gallery improvements (albums can now be linked to multiple entities via Album Association).
Version 1.7.1
Version 1.7.1 builds on the 1.7 (Google Maps) release with major account and authentication improvements — including Google Sign-In support and a secure change email address wizard with OTP verification.
Version 1.7
Version 1.7 introduces Google Maps integration across ManageMyTrust—bringing structured geocoding, map embeds, and an interactive pin editor to Organisation, Partner, Donor, and Program Center workflows.
Version 1.6.6
Version 1.6.6 is a major upgrade to the Programs module and the Public Website / Subsite builder experience, along with important reliability fixes for publishing and production migrations. It introduces beneficiary follow-up tracking, improves enrollment workflows, enhances program browsing UX, and strengthens data validation for PAN handling.
Version 1.6.5
Version 1.6.5 delivers a major set of upgrades across Donations, Disbursements, Program Centers, and the Public Website experience. It also includes several important reliability fixes—especially for orgs with little or no data—and a set of mobile UI improvements across the sidebar and photo gallery.
NGO Growth Fails in the Filing Cabinet
An NGO can’t scale if compliance, governance, and HR records are buried. Missing documents surface during audits, donor checks, and onboarding—structured information enables growth.
Version 1.6.4
Version 1.6.4 is a maintenance release focused on receipt improvements, public subsite polish, and a critical production fix for document access. It improves PDF and print workflows for receipts, tightens protection for system Image Vault content, and fixes issues caused by HTML sanitisation and URL signing constraints.
Version 1.6.3
Version 1.6.3 continues the rollout of Program Centers and improves everyday usability across Projects, Partners, and Due Diligence. It also includes several production and reliability fixes for subsites and deployments.
Version 1.6.2
Version 1.6.2 is focused on public subsite enhancements, security hardening, and deployment reliability. It expands what organisations can publish on their public website (new live sections and theming), tightens access control for public-facing forms, and upgrades the production runtime to Python 3.11.
Why Manual Doesn't Mean Careful
A small receipt error from mismatched spreadsheets cost a donor renewal. Manual work creates inconsistency, reconciliation gaps, and audit surprises, systems must provide a single source of truth.
How Data Changes Leadership
Trust board meetings often get stuck on operational catch-up because key data isn’t available. With organized, real-time dashboards, leaders can spot trends and focus on mission.
Version 1.6.1
Version 1.6.1 is a maintenance release focused on better administration tools, clearer access controls, and improvements to lists and exports.
Version 1.6
Version 1.6 introduces the new Organisation Subsite — a per-organisation public website builder served from an org subdomain — and includes important stability and security fixes for the subsite stack. This release also ships improvements across project financial workflows (disbursements + donations) and the AI newsletter experience.
Version 1.5.1
Version 1.5.1 continues the rollout of the new Beneficiaries and Training modules (for beneficiary registration, custom profile fields, enrollments, and attendance tracking), alongside a set of production fixes to improve the UX of the application.
The Approval That Took Three Weeks
A trust project lost a crucial field window because approvals got stuck in messy email threads. ManageMyTrust centralizes approvals, context, and audit trails to speed decisions.
Version 1.5
Version 1.5 introduces a complete Marketing module foundation — including Mailing Lists, Email Templates, Sender Identities, and an end-to-end Email Campaign Wizard — plus several usability and reliability improvements.
Version 1.4.2
Version 1.4.2 adds two new organisation-wide vaults for managing documents and images in a single place, plus several usability fixes to navigation and mobile layouts. This release also includes infrastructure work to make email dispatch more reliable at scale.
Version 1.4.1
Quarterly Newsletter Builder lets trusts create, edit, and publish public quarterly updates via a 5-step wizard, AI drafting, real project data, and rich media.
What Donors Really Want to Know
ManageMyTrust helps nonprofits answer donor questions fast by centralizing donations, project updates, and evidence, strengthening transparency, trust, and long-term relationships with funders.
The Hidden Cost of Just One More Spreadsheet
Spreadsheets, drives, and WhatsApp create chaos. Manual processes block growth, causing delays and lost opportunities. ManageMyTrust centralizes operations, scaling effortlessly.
Version 1.3.2
Version 1.3.2 introduces Due Diligence Visit management for Partners, making it easier for trustees and team members to document field visits and capture observations in a structured way. This release also includes a set of presentation and usability improvements across dashboards and detail pages.
When Good Intentions Meet Governance Reality
Trustees struggle to prove how each donation was used when funds are pooled. Lack of attribution erodes trust. ManageMyTrust tracks rupees to outcomes.
The Question Every Auditor Asks
Auditors demand a donation trail; trustees scramble across statements, spreadsheets, and messages. Poor records risk compliance and credibility. ManageMyTrust automates end-to-end traceability quickly.
The Scattered Data Problem
Trustees lose time and confidence when trust data is spread across spreadsheets and email. Simple questions like quarterly fundraising require manual hunting, delaying decisions and causing missed opportunities. During audits, reconciliation becomes painful. Scattered information is not just inconvenient, it is a governance risk. ManageMyTrust unifies data for real-time answers.
