Ember Reviews

Ember Description

Ember is an easy-to-use and cost-effective solution designed specifically for small nonprofit organizations. All essential elements such as programs, volunteers, grants, donors, budgeting, staff hours, board meetings, and compliance deadlines are consolidated in one platform, ensuring that the hours tracked for a program automatically reflect in grant reports, eliminating the need for repetitive data entry.

Volunteers can effortlessly sign up for shifts via their mobile devices and will receive a reminder three days prior to their scheduled time. You can document the activities of each program, monitor ongoing totals, and generate an impact report in PDF format. Additionally, you can keep track of every grant, including their reporting deadlines, express gratitude to all donors, prepare board meeting materials, and maintain a comprehensive calendar for Form 990 submissions and state renewal deadlines. For founders, there's a detailed checklist that guides them through the process of launching a nonprofit organization.

The software is free for organizations with an annual budget of less than $50,000. For those with a budget exceeding this threshold, a single monthly rate is applied based on the budget size, providing access to all features and an unlimited number of users across all plans. There are no additional charges per user, no upfront credit card requirement, and you maintain complete ownership of your data, which can be easily exported whenever necessary. In this way, Ember aims to simplify the management of nonprofit operations while ensuring cost efficiency and user accessibility.
