Unlike commercial accounting systems,
Sage MIP Fund Accounting addresses the specific needs of
nonprofit and government organizations, from tracking
and reporting on individual funds from multiple sources
to complying with FASB/GASB and other reporting
requirements. Recently voted as Best Overall Nonprofit
Accounting Software by accounting managers nationwide,
Sage MIP Fund Accounting is the financial management
solution preferred by non-commercial organizations like
nonprofits and local government agencies for planning
and managing budgets, maximizing grants, and producing
accurate customized reports.

Affordable and easy-to-use, Sage
Fundraising 50 provides growing nonprofits integrated fundraising and
development program management to acquire, retain and recapture donors and
other stakeholders. All development focus areas are included and integrated
at no extra cost, including proposal tracking, event management, volunteer
profiling and programs, membership management and more.
Built with an eye
towards ease of use for growing nonprofits and
volunteers, Sage Fundraising 50 organizes prospect and
constituent information into an intuitive interface
featuring a dynamic navigator pane. This easy to learn
design is a particular help to nonprofits who rely on
volunteers or who struggle with turnover.
Straightforward processes minimize learning curves and
immediately increase productivity. The system also
includes timesaving utilities throughout the system to
streamline daily tasks, and nearly every view in the
Sage Fundraising 50 system offers the option for a
Snapshot Report, a quick, configurable graphic to
visually highlight pertinent information.
