In partnership with a U.S.-based client, Softray contributed to the development of an innovative Donor Engagement Platform (DEP). With a focus on digital-first strategies, the platform reimagines the donor experience, bridging communication gaps between blood centers and donors while fostering long-term relationships with new donors and strengthen connections with existing ones.
Goals
The goal of this platform is to revolutionise how non-profits engage with emerging generations of potential donors by:
- Redefining strategies for Millennial and Gen-X audiences
- Building loyalty through impactful, real-time interactions
- Creating a scalable, long-term engagement ecosystem
Challenges
The platform needed to:
- Engage emerging donor generations across their preferred channels
- Offer a compelling, data-driven donor journey
- Seamlessly integrate CRM and marketing automation tools
- Support real-time insights and reward strategies
- Drive recurring donations through stronger connections
When we receive state-specific requirements, we don’t hard-code them. Instead, we implement them behind feature flags, making them reusable, maintainable, and adaptable for other use cases.
Solution
Softray collaborated with the client to build a connected, data-driven engagement platform(DEP), designed to connect, collect, and grow.
