Capital Business Solutions recently provided the Winston-Salem Foundation in NC additional staff training their Raiser’s Edge fundraising software.

Working with Annette Lynch, Vice President of Philanthropic Services, CBS customized a training plan for the staff to build off of previous work and changes to the system performed by Alyson. Using the Search Module, CBS helped configure major, corporate and planned gift prospect and proposal management components such as: classification and status tables; philanthropic interest types; financial information; prospect rating sources and other fields plus provided end-user training on adding proposals; linking to gifts, querying on ratings and folding current Action protocols in Prospect.

Who is Winston-Salem Foundation?

The Winston-Salem Foundation was established in 1919 by Col. Francis Fries with a gift of $1,000, and at the end of 2016 our assets totaled approximately $453 million.  Their community’s rich philanthropic legacy is intertwined with that of the Foundation, and is a direct result of the generosity, inclusion, integrity and excellence bestowed by so many community members.
