Sound familiar?
Your donor CRM, event tool, and email list don't talk to each other
You use Bloomerang for donors, Eventbrite for events, Mailchimp for the newsletter, and QuickBooks for accounting. A donor who attended your gala last week isn't in the email segment for this week's appeal. Everything needs manual syncing.
Grant reporting is a manual project every quarter
A funder asks how their grant was spent. You spend two days pulling records from QuickBooks, matching to program outcomes in a Google Sheet, and building the report from scratch — every quarter, for every funder.
Board meetings and minutes live in email threads
Meeting agendas arrive as attachments. Minutes get drafted after, circulated by email, approved the following month. Action items disappear between meetings. When the board chair changes, the history is scattered across six inboxes.
How TidyHQ fixes it.
Donor records and tax-deductible receipts built in
Every donor has a record with lifetime giving history, contact details, and automatic tax-deductible receipts. Segment donors for targeted appeals. Track grants alongside individual donations in one place.
Categorised income your treasurer can use at 990 time
Every income source and expense category tracked in real time — contributions, program revenue, grants, dues. Your treasurer or CPA has the categorised figures they need to fill out Form 990 or 990-EZ instead of rebuilding from bank statements.
Events, email, and dues on the same platform as donors
A donor who registers for an event is automatically tagged. Your next email appeal segments by who attended, who donated, and who lapsed. No manual syncing between five tools.
Board governance tools included
Meeting agendas, minutes with action items, votes on record, and 25 GB document storage. Board members each have their own login; the full governance history persists across board transitions.
Questions people ask.
Is TidyHQ a good fit for a small US nonprofit?+
Yes. TidyHQ is built for small US nonprofits — typically under $500k in revenue, with volunteer or small-staff teams. Donor records, categorised income tracking, events, and board governance all in one platform. Under 20 contacts runs free.
Does TidyHQ generate tax-deductible donation receipts?+
Yes. Every donation generates an emailed receipt with your organisation's details, donation amount, and date. Donors can re-download it from their member portal. The receipt content is configurable — you set the language and statements your accountant needs.
How does TidyHQ help with IRS Form 990 or 990-EZ filings?+
Income sources (contributions, grants, program revenue, membership dues) and expense categories are tracked in real time. At year-end your treasurer or CPA has the categorised figures they need to fill out Form 990, 990-EZ, or 990-N — TidyHQ doesn't file with the IRS, but it removes the manual reconstruction.
Can TidyHQ replace Bloomerang, Eventbrite, Mailchimp, and QuickBooks?+
For many small nonprofits, yes — for CRM, events, email, and basic financial tracking. Organisations with deeper fundraising operations or complex accounting usually keep a dedicated accounting system (QuickBooks) and use TidyHQ for CRM, events, memberships, and dues. QuickBooks is via CSV export, not a native integration — Xero is native.
Does TidyHQ handle grant tracking and funder reporting?+
Yes. Grants are tracked as income with category tags, expected vs received amounts, and linked to program expenses. You can generate funder-specific reports showing how a specific grant was spent. This replaces the quarterly spreadsheet rebuild that most small nonprofits do manually.
How much does TidyHQ cost for a small nonprofit?+
Free for nonprofits under 20 contacts, including full features. Pro is $49/month for larger nonprofits, with a 1% + $0.20 USD service fee on transactions plus Stripe processing fees. Registered nonprofits can ask about additional nonprofit pricing.
