Our Giving Back Culture

At Access we believe in giving back, and every year we encourage our teams globally to nominate a cause close to their hearts to become our local charity of the year. This charity receives fundraising - through our fundraising challenges and payroll giving - as well as other support from the business, a true partnership in every sense. And for every pound raised by staff, Access doubles it.

But it doesn't end there... we also love our teams to give their time and each year have an extra day's leave to give back to their local community or chosen cause.

In 2021 we set up The Access Foundation to make a real impact in our communities. Through this philanthropy, we will support causes nominated by our team and work to bridge the digital divide.

What our customers say...

Our new website is great – we can highlight topical information so easily to help people care for their pets, and showcase the services that we provide to the community. The team have been great to work with, and the platform is simple to understand, yet offers so many options to get the right information to the right audience. We are seeing more people visit our site and stay longer, and we have more revenue streams available to us to help raise funds for animals in need.

Not-for-profit Accounting Software FAQs

What is Not For Profit software?

There is a lot of software out there to run your organisation. However, not all of it has been built specifically for charities and NFPs. When searching for software for your charity be sure to take the time to understand if the software was designed to meet the needs of a charity.

Our Access Workspace for Charities solutions have been built from the ground up specifically to meet the needs of charities, meaning they have the bespoke features and functionality that are unique to charity needs.

What software do charities need to make the biggest difference?

To make the biggest difference, charities need software that allows them to engage their existing supporters more effectively, empower them to attract new donors to their cause and generate more predictable income streams.

 

Consider the donor journey - solutions to attract, convert and engage new donors and nurture your current ones should be prioritised to bring the biggest benefit to your fundraising efforts. Luckily you can get all of those and more from Access.
