All about CharityTracker

We are very excited to announce the launch of CharityTracker! We’ve worked long and hard to bring you what may be the easiest way to track charitable assistance in a community.

Several months ago, Tina Scott of the United Way, and Donna Fisher of Faith Church, came to Simon Solutions looking for a simple way to keep track of charitable assistance in northwest Alabama. We brainstormed together and came up with an initial solution. Called SEANtracker, it was a simple web application where a charitable agency could let other agencies know who (and how) they were helping. The community used it and found it helpful. We got plenty of great feedback, including many ways to make SEANtracker better.

From the very beginning of the project, everyone agreed that SEANtracker should be an ongoing collaboration. We wanted to work hand-in-hand to ensure that the web application would get better and better over time, that it could adjust to the needs and wants of the community. From the feedback we received from the community, we made an update to SEANtracker. We are receiving more great feedback, and the cycle continues.

Now we’re offering SEANtracker to other communities. The public version is called CharityTracker, and it’s a service developed by a community, for communities. You can take it for a test spin at CharityTracker.net. Let us know what you think!
