Blackbaud is delighted to announce the newest members of the Social Good Startup Program<\/a> in its January 2021 cohort. As part of our commitment to expanding the Ecosystem of Good®, Blackbaud launched the Social Good Startup Challenge in October 2019 for early-stage software companies focused on solving problems that matter to the social good community. As part of Blackbaud’s commitment to equality<\/a>, we partnered with OpportunityHub<\/a> to focus our recruitment efforts for the January 2021 cohort on early-stage software companies with at least one founder who is a person of color.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The winners of this challenge have developed innovative products to improve the outcomes of mission-based organizations and show strong potential for providing Blackbaud customers with added value through complementary solutions. The program will provide founders with a scholarship to a virtual accelerator, a team inside Blackbaud to help provide strategic, technical and marketing support, and grant funding to cover integration and other costs associated with making their product more accessible to Blackbaud customers. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“As a market leader, Blackbaud is in a unique position to provide these promising social impact startups with an advantage at a critical stage in their growth,” said Roz Lemieux, senior director, platform product management at Blackbaud. “Our vision is to power an Ecosystem of Good® that builds a better world. These innovative startups bring fresh perspectives and creative solutions to the table—and the world needs that now more than ever.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“The Social Good Startup Program complements our investment in the Blackbaud SKY<\/a>® platform, which is designed to ensure our customers have flexibility, choice and greater value with Blackbaud’s best-in-class, purpose-built solutions,” said Meredith Johnson, Vice President of Product Management at Blackbaud. “It’s a win-win-win, for our customers, our startup partners and Blackbaud.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
