Donor CRM
Little Green Light
Little Green Light is the donor CRM that wins on arithmetic: $45 a month covers up to 2,500 constituents with unlimited users, and there are no contracts or setup fees. Among budget-minded fundraisers it’s the recurring answer for a first real database, with capability well above its price.
Who it fits
Small organizations graduating from spreadsheets, and lean teams that value capability over polish. The custom fields and reporting handle serious fundraising work, and the loyal user base reflects that. The dated interface is the known tradeoff.
Pricing
| Constituents | Monthly |
|---|---|
| Up to 2,500 | $45 |
| Up to 5,000 | $60 |
| Tiers continue to 50,000 | up to $135 |
| Each +10,000 above 50k | +$15/mo |
Annual prepay takes 10% off. Payment processing fees go to the processor, not LGL.
How it compares
Bloomerang is friendlier and stronger on retention dashboards at a higher price. DonorDock guides your daily follow-up with its ActionBoard. DonorSnap starts even cheaper at $39 a month with data conversion included. LGL’s edge is flexibility per dollar; its risk is that a team that needs software to look inviting may not adopt it.
Bottom line
For a small shop watching every dollar, start here. There’s a free trial, and the practical test is loading a sample of your donor list and building the two or three reports you actually run. If your team will use it, nothing at this price touches it.
Strengths
- The small-shop value pick; switchers often report paying far less than at bigger systems
- Flexible fields, real reporting, and mailing tools at a low price
- No contracts, no setup fees, 10% off annual prepay
Limitations
- The interface is functional, not modern
- Smaller vendor: leaner support and fewer native integrations
- Little built-in marketing automation
