CharityCAN
CharityCAN is fundraising and relationship data software for Canadian charitable organizations seeking prospective donors.
What CharityCAN is
CharityCAN is fundraising and relationship data software for Canadian charitable organizations seeking prospective donors. Its search combines donation, compensation and biographical records, and it creates profiles that gather information about each prospect. Users can map connections through boards and companies, search those maps and explore paths linking people, charities and companies. The service says it provides current-year real estate value and donation estimates for every Canadian postal code and reports on 85,000 registered charities. Donor screening matches names and addresses with CharityCAN data and calculates capacity and affinity scores, drawing on details such as board affiliations, donations, salaries, organizational links and household wealth. AI Summaries produce donor briefs for export or saving to a donor management system. Raiser’s Edge NXT integration displays relationship, donation and postal-code data on constituent pages; an API provides screening results and database updates. Plans include a free 24-hour trial, while the one-user plan is $3,400 a year. Subscriptions include on-demand training and support, a dedicated account manager and contact by email, phone, chat or text.
