One donor record
One donor record across everything you raise
Most fundraising stacks split the relationship: donor notes in a CRM, gifts in a checkout, sponsorships in a workaround, grant deadlines in a spreadsheet, event pledges in an inbox. Every report becomes an export-and-merge job, and follow-up runs on memory.
Gratona keeps the whole relationship on one record. A supporter who gives monthly, sponsors a child, attends the gala, and is named in a grant report shows up as one person: gifts, sponsorships, grants, events, campaigns, communications, tasks, reports, and AI-assisted follow-up, all connected.

Sarah Mitchell's donor record shows touchpoints across 8 HYS modules: sponsorships, recurring giving, campaign gifts, mission trip support, grant relationships, AI Insights cultivation, mailings, and stewardship, totaling $48,200 lifetime, all in one unified donor record.Built-in fundraising workflows
Fundraising workflows built into the CRM, not bolted on
Campaigns, recurring giving, pledges, stewardship, journeys, and scheduled reports run next to the donor records they depend on. No sync jobs, no follow-up trackers on the side.
Campaigns and appeals
Plan the appeal, track the gifts, and attribute every response back to the donor record, without exporting a list to find out how it went.
Recurring giving and pledges
Monthly giving, pledge schedules, and payment recovery run inside the CRM, so a lapsed recurring gift becomes a follow-up task, not a surprise.
Stewardship coverage
Every donor has a clear owner. The Stewardship Hub shows who needs attention, what happened last, and what should happen next.
Journeys
Guide donors through meaningful next steps: welcome series, first-gift thanks, sponsorship anniversaries, and re-engagement.
Scheduled reports
Send the right report at the right time: board packets, program updates, and funder reports composed from the same record.
Tasks and approvals
Turn follow-up into assigned work with due dates, review states, and outcomes logged back to the donor record.
Gratona Sponsorships
Sponsorships are first-class, not a workaround
Sponsor-recipient relationships, recipient profiles, updates, messaging, photo privacy, payments, and reports: the depth of HelpYouSponsor, now a core module of the Gratona platform. Click through the real giving pages below; every gift, commitment, and signup writes straight to the donor record.
Embed anywhere
Drop sponsorship, donation, and trip pages into WordPress, Webflow, Framer, or a custom site with a few lines of code.
Brand matched
Pick your theme color and the embed matches your site, in light and dark mode, out of the box.
Writes to the record
Every gift, commitment, and signup lands on the same donor record your team and Aida work from.
Grants and events
Grants and events live on the same record
Grants
Track funders, deadlines, outcomes, documents, and reports next to the relationship behind them. The renewal ask, the report deadline, and the program outcomes all land on the same record, so a grant report starts from connected history instead of a folder of scattered notes.
Events
Attendees, table hosts, and pledges flow back to the donor record instead of dying in a CSV. The gala ends and the open pledges become owned follow-up tasks, with the relationship context attached to each one.
Work Graph + Stewardship Hub
Where relationship context becomes owned work
The Stewardship Hub shows who needs attention, who owns the relationship, what is overdue, and what should happen next. The Work Graph turns that context into owned work: tasks, due dates, assignments, drafts, approvals, outcomes, and audit history connected to the donor record.
Source context
Every task carries the records behind it: the gift history, the last meeting note, the sponsorship record, the grant deadline. Nobody walks into a call cold.
Owners and due dates
Every follow-up is assigned to a named person with a date tied to the moment that matters. Work stops falling through the cracks of a shared inbox.
Approvals
Drafts and sensitive actions move through review states. Your team edits, approves, or sends back, and every decision is logged.
Outcomes and audit history
What was drafted, approved, revised, and sent is recorded on the same record, so the next step always starts from what actually happened.
Aida, your AI development teammate
Aida helps your team turn trusted donor and fundraising context into reviewed work: draft follow-ups, prepare reports, surface relationship risks, summarize donor history, and suggest the next best action. She is powerful here because the whole relationship lives on one record she can actually read.
- Nothing sends without approval
- Every recommendation includes source context
- Every action can be reviewed, edited, approved, and logged
- Aida adds development capacity; she does not replace your team

Sarah, your sponsorship of Maria in León is entering year five, a milestone we'd love to celebrate with you. Given your support of the 2024 trip team and your steady recurring gift, we're wondering if you'd consider...

Try it
Work one item with Aida
Pick a work item, read the source context, review Aida's draft, approve it, and watch the outcome get logged on the donor record.
Reporting and multi-entity
Board-ready reporting without the spreadsheet merge
Giving, retention, program coverage, and donor health compose across the same record. Pull a board-ready view, schedule the reports your funders expect, and stop reconciling exports.
Running more than one entity or program? Native multi-entity hierarchy with multi-currency, per-entity audit logs, per-jurisdiction tax receipting (US 501c3, UK Gift Aid, Canadian CRA, AU DGR), and consolidated rollup reporting across the whole network.

Security, permissions, and audit
Built for data your donors trusted you with
Role-based access
Donors, gifts, sponsorships, grants, and tasks share the same access rules. People and AI teammates only see what their role allows.
One audit trail
Every change, send, and approval lands in one audit history across modules, not scattered across disconnected systems.
Human review for AI
AI-prepared work moves through review states. Your team approves before anything reaches a donor, and every decision is logged.
Source-backed recommendations
Every Aida recommendation links to the records it stands on, so your team can verify the context before acting.
