The Reality for Small Charity Teams

Three Problems That Take Time Away From Your Cause

01

Membership Admin Depends on One Volunteer

When one volunteer holds the member spreadsheet, every change becomes another email to them. Join It gives your charity a shared register that stays with the organisation, so a change of staff does not mean starting again.

02

Subscription Renewals Get Lost Among Other Work

Campaigns, events and daily enquiries can push membership renewals down the list. Join It sends scheduled reminders and collects subscriptions online, keeping payment history with the member who paid.

03

Supporter Information Is Spread Across Files

Members may also donate or volunteer, while their details sit in separate spreadsheets. Join It brings membership, payment history and custom interests together, helping your team find the right people for each message.

Common Questions

Charity Membership Teams Ask Us

What is charity membership software?

Charity membership software helps charities manage members, donors, volunteers, supporters, donations, renewals, events, and communications.

Charities often rely on a mix of paying members, donors, volunteers, campaign supporters, and occasional event attendees. Join It helps keep those relationships organized by connecting contact details, payment activity, donation history, membership status, custom fields, and communication workflows. This gives your team a clearer view of who supports the charity and how they are involved.

Can charities manage members and donors together?

Yes. Charities can manage members, donors, volunteers, and supporters in one searchable database while keeping each relationship type clear.

Not every supporter fits the same category. Some people pay dues, some donate, some volunteer, and some do several things at once. Join It lets charities create free or paid membership types, use custom fields and notes, and track payments or donations on the supporter record. This helps your team understand the whole supporter relationship rather than splitting it across multiple spreadsheets.

Can a charity collect donations through Join It?

Yes. Charities can collect donations through Join It, including standalone donations, checkout donation prompts, and donation-based membership options.

Donation workflows are useful when supporters want to contribute without becoming standard members, or when members want to add extra support during signup or renewal. Join It can keep donation activity connected to the supporter record and send confirmation emails with receipts. This helps charities see giving alongside membership activity without a separate payment form for every campaign.

Can charities import an existing supporter database?

Yes. Charities can import existing member and supporter records into Join It when moving from spreadsheets or another system.

A charity database may include donors, members, volunteers, board members, and lapsed supporters. Before importing, your team can decide which fields to preserve, such as status, donation history, role, location, interest area, renewal date, or volunteer preference. Importing gives the charity a cleaner starting point without losing the relationships it has built over time.

Can charities segment supporters for campaigns or updates?

Yes. Charities can use membership types, statuses, custom fields, and activity to segment supporters for more relevant communication.

A charity may need to send different messages to monthly donors, active members, volunteers, event attendees, board members, or lapsed supporters. Join It helps organize those groups and can connect member data to email platforms like Mailchimp. This makes outreach more targeted without rebuilding campaign lists manually each time.

Can charity supporters update their own details?

Yes. Supporters can use the Member Portal to update their contact information, payment details, and profile fields where member editing is enabled.

Supporter data changes quickly, especially emails, addresses, and payment cards. A self-service portal gives supporters a simple way to keep their information current without sending an admin request. This reduces bounced messages, failed renewals, and manual cleanup while giving supporters a more convenient relationship with the charity.
