About NationBuilder
What is NationBuilder?
NationBuilder is a human-centric technology platform designed to help nonprofits, causes, political campaigns, and movements grow their community and move them to action. It combines a dynamic people database, fundraising tools, email and text outreach, and a hosted action website—all in one integrated system.
Who is it for?
It's built for organizations that need to manage supporters, donors, and volunteers—such as advocacy groups, nonprofits, political campaigns, and community movements. It's not for businesses looking for a generic CRM; it's specifically tailored to mission-driven organizations.
Key capabilities
NationBuilder enables you to track every interaction with your contacts, segment them for targeted communication, and engage them through email, text, and ActionButton features like quizzes, polls, and petitions. It also offers payment processing and donation management, event ticketing, and a website builder designed to drive action.
Real-world impact
Organizations like Refugee Council of Australia tripled fundraising, and ICAN reached 50 ratifications of a UN treaty. From local nonprofits to global movements, NationBuilder powers leaders to build the future.
