  2. Ability to create Supporter types

    It would be helpful to have the ability to create different supporter types for individuals, organizations, etc.

    Having Sponsorship Types is extremely helpful. Supporter types is equally important to our organization.

  3. More options for contacting donors

    I noticed there are two options in the account for email preferences:
    1. Yes, but only about items I donated to or sponsored
    2. No thanks

    What about all the other things we email them about as soon as we get their email address? Can a third option be added? Something like, "Yes! I would like to receive e-mails"

  4. Transfer donation to a different supporter

    If a donation is entered under the wrong supporter, it must be deleted and re-entered. It would be great if when you edit a donation, the supporter name can be edited as well.

  5. ACH refunds to show up in Reach as a transaction.

    Refunds processed by the bank don't show up in reach. It would be nice for it to match up with the actual transaction that is refunded but just showing up as a new negative transaction would also work.

  6. Weekly Supporter Campaign Summary Updates

    After a supporter creates a campaign, I would like them to get weekly updates (using a "Campaign Summary" email template). This would help to keep them focused and energized.

  9. Video acknowledgment tool to send supporters a video thank-you message

    Include a video acknowledgment tool to engage donors with a simple thank you message. The use of video increases engagement. Make it simple to create thank you videos directly from smartphones.

  10. Deposit date on donations

    In order to reconcile the donations to bank statements, it would be nice to have the ability to enter the date the donation was deposited into the account. This is especially useful for the online donations made toemwards the end of the month and deposited at the beginning of the next month. I don't have a problem manually updating the field as we need to reconcile with the stripe payouts anyway. Checks are also another place this is important. The date of the donations determines when it is receipted. If the check was received before the end of the year,…

  11. Allow Sponsorship Conversations to be turned on/off per Place

    Currently, when Conversations are turned on in the Portal Setup, it is enabled for all Places at once. Since our organization has many places that we provide for children, we would like to roll out Conversations to those locations one at a time.

  12. Customizable Table Headings

    I would like to be able to choose what columns appear in the table on the Sponsorships admin page.Most of the information in the existing columns are not information we use (permalink, type, shares, campaigns) . It would be nice to be able to see some quick information there without having to click on the child's individual record to find it. Ie. Last name, ID number, Birthday, Age, etc. Thanks for your consideration!

  14. Foward emails to donor records

    I have used a CRM tool in the past and they had a really nice feature. Forwarding emails (from outside of reach) into the reach donor record. It adds it's to the email address of the donor that found in reach under Activity.

  15. Conversation Tracking

    A date range on the conversation export would be helpful. Also, it would be a huge help if the current conversation report would differentiate between conversations from students vs. sponsors and show sponsorships that have no letters within the date range selected.
    Also, if a sponsor deletes their conversations, there is no way to know if letters have been written for tracking purposes. Can these remain in the system but flagged as deleted and not shown to the sponsor?

  16. Streamline supporter campaign registration

    When folks click to create their supporter campaign they are directed to sign in or create an account. Once they are signed in/up they should be taken to the page to set up the campaign, rather than being taken to the Reach Home page. Many folks create their Reach account and think they have set up their campaign.

  17. Add Country Name to Inbox or Message View

    We are having to open another Reach page to look up a child who received an online letter in order to see what country they’re from (so we know what language to translate to). Is there a way to include the country name or child’s ID (ours includes country abbreviation) in either the Inbox view or the message view of the Conversations area?

  18. Purpose specific email receipts

    Instead of just one standard "New Donation" email template, I would like to be able to send unique receipts based upon what purpose or campaign a supporter donates to. For instance...

    --if they donate to a specific campaign, they would get a receipt designed for that campaign.
    --if they donate to a specific missionary, they would get a receipt designed for the missionary, in which we can have a special message from that missionary with links to that missionaries blog, REACH donation link, etc.
    ---if they donated to our Haitian Staff account, we can have a special thank you form…

  19. Have two separate options for donating in memory and in honour.

    Have two separate options for donating in memory and in honour. For in memory, provide a separate email confirmation sent to a loved one with the option to have the person donated in memory of's name added - ex. "A donation has been made in honour of ___", instead of one email for both saying "a donation was made in your honor". This doesn't really work when the person is deceased.

    It would be nice to be able to shorten links. So instead of using https://aohi.reachapp.co/projects/high-school-fund we could use www.aohi.org/highschool
