Why DonorConnect

A focused MVP built to move first-time donors to their second gift with clear data, guided actions, and automation.

Solution idea

Centralize donors, donations, and campaigns; surface retention risk; give AI-generated context so staff send the right follow-up fast.

Key features & rationale

  • Donor + donation CRUD tied to organizations for clean multi-tenant data.
  • Dashboard metrics for totals, trends, and recent gifts to triage work.
  • AI donor summaries to condense history and risk into one actionable paragraph.
  • Role-based controls so only admins/staff can add gifts or donors.
  • Transaction simulator to test workflows without real payments.

Expected challenges & planning

Ensuring auth compatibility with Next.js app router, keeping Prisma multi-tenant filters strict, and handling AI responsibly with minimal PII sent.
