For each of the tools below, we’ve included two things: a brief description, as well as who the tool is especially useful for. If you’re trying to make 2026 your best year yet – this list of tools will help. 

13 Tools For Nonprofits In 2026

1) Givebutter

Givebutter combines tons of features that nonprofits typically need. From donation pages and event planning to donor management, you have everything you need in one easy-to-use platform. Plus, there are no hidden fees, which is great if you are on a budget. 

Perfect for:

Small to mid-sized nonprofits looking to consolidate their fundraising tools without compromising on features or design. A great all-in-one fundraising platform for organizations that want to simplify.

2) Bonterra

This powerful CRM (formerly known as EveryAction) helps with everything related to donor management. Looking to create specific segments with your donors? Want to automate your outreach across all platforms? Need a way to increase your average donation size? Bonterra is a good place to start.

Perfect for:

Established organizations that are ready to dive into data-driven fundraising.

3) Trello

If you need a simple but powerful project management tool, Trello is helpful for just about any organization. The tool is built on an intuitive board-based system. This means that it’s not only easy to use, but also lets you organize your workflow in a way that’s easy to understand. Great for coordinating efforts across your teams and mapping out tasks.

Perfect for:

Teams of any size who want to stay organized and transparent. Plus, because you can sign up for Trello for free, it’s also a great option for organizations just getting started.

4) Mighty Networks

Want to build communities where your supporters can connect and engage, but want to do it without relying on social media algorithms? Mighty Networks can make it happen. And with an average of 4.8 out of 5 stars over 80k ratings, you know your community building efforts are in good hands. 

Perfect for:

Nonprofits that are already creating engagement programs or member communities. Also a good option for organizations that are ready to start taking it more seriously. 

5) Canva

Whether you like it or not, visuals are important in marketing. Unfortunately, not all of us have a design team ready to make whatever images we need. This is where Canva comes in. User-friendly and sporting a ton of cool features, Canva makes it easier to create amazing images for all your marketing needs. 

Perfect for:

The greatest thing about Canva is that nonprofits get free premium access to the website. This makes it a great option for any nonprofit that needs to make beautiful graphics, but doesn’t have the budget to hire professional designers. 

6) Zapier

The better you get at automation, the better your marketing becomes. This is a simple marketing truth. The problem? Most nonprofit organizations aren’t that great at creating the automations that make a difference (or get overwhelmed when they try to). Zapier makes it all easier by connecting all of your favorite apps. 

Perfect for:

Teams that are ready to save time by automating the “little stuff.” For any organization that wants to automate repetitive tasks (all of them), Zapier is worth investing your time in.

That means that you have guidance every step of the way. 

Perfect for:

Fundraising-focused teams who want an easier CRM, with the proven systems of Bloomerang

8) Muck Rack

One of the most neglected areas of growing a nonprofit? Building relationships with the media. When you connect with the right journalists, good things happen. And if you’re trying to take that more seriously? Much Rack is a solid choice. 

Perfect for:

Nonprofits ready to invest in PR and media outreach. And if that describes you – be sure to look up some best practices to prepare for 2026!

9) Loom

Sometimes, writing out what you need done simply takes too long. Especially when you are working on multiple projects across teams. Loom makes this easier. A simple screen recording software, the software is one of the more actionable tools for nonprofits in 2026. Simply turn it on, record what you are doing on your screen, and skip the awkward “back and forth” that happens with written instructions. 

Perfect for:

Remote or hybrid teams and organizations looking to humanize their communication. Loom is also great for teams that don’t have an extensive library of SOP’s. 

10) DotCal

DotCal gives you beautiful scheduling pages that are on-brand. This is great for anything you might need to schedule a meeting for: donor meetings, volunteer onboarding, or media interviews. Think Calendly, but better looking. 

Perfect for:

Staff or teams who schedule regular one-on-one’s with external stakeholders. Also a convenient tool for any organization that wants to make a strong first impression.

Final Thoughts

When looking at tools for nonprofits in 2026, we recommend you ask one simple question: is this going to help with our mission? If the answer is “no”, avoid it. There’s no use in learning a new software if it’s not going to have an immediate impact.

But this list of tools? We are confident each one has the potential to change how your non-profit operates for the better. Give them a try and let us know how it goes!
