EverTrue, the leading advancement automation platform, today announced a partnership with Ellucian, the leading provider of software and services built to power higher education. EverTrue has partnered with Ellucian to help advancement teams engage alumni, raise support and measure team progress more efficiently and effectively.
“At EverTrue, we believe the future of advancement is a connected experience,” said Brent Grinna, founder and CEO. “After working side-by-side with hundreds of institutions for more than seven years, we know that most schools are sitting on a trove of data that, if acted upon, would enable stronger connections with alumni, parents and friends. We’ve partnered with Ellucian to make it as easy as possible for advancement teams to access and act on these insights.”
Advancement automation is a technology that combines real-time insights and best-in-class integrations with mission-critical alumni relations and development workflows in a user-friendly platform. The EverTrue Platform connects insights from dynamic sources like LinkedIn, Facebook and Zillow to align with the objectives of each department, helping fundraisers to work seamlessly towards shared engagement and fundraising goals. By streamlining the processes of donor discovery, annual giving segmentation, prospect management, major gift fundraising, volunteer management and stewardship, teams are able to increase operational efficiency, personalize the donor journey and ultimately grow donations faster.
“We are thrilled to have EverTrue as a key Ellucian Solution Partner,” said Chris Westfall, vice president, business development at Ellucian. “EverTrue’s unique, data-driven and personalized approach makes the company a leading innovator in the advancement automation space. We look forward to continued partnership and collaboration in the years to come.”
“As we continue to build a rich ecosystem of 21st century solutions to tackle the fundraising of tomorrow, I am thrilled that two of our long time technology partners, EverTrue and Ellucian, have come together to support the needs of the modern advancement office,” said Mark Koenig, assistant vice president for advancement services, analytics and digital strategy at the Oregon State University Foundation. “They are both leaders in not only our industry, but across the larger technology landscape helping us bring feature-rich customer-experiences to bear.”
