The all-in-one platform for small nonprofits. 15 integrated apps, expert coaching, and a free 501(c)(3) starter kit to get you off the ground.
Because nonprofit software shouldn't be built for people who've never run a nonprofit.
Build Your Club Academy was built by nonprofit board members who identified the need for software like this. We watched the same pattern repeat at organization after organization — talented people getting buried in compliance filings, governance paperwork, and fundraising mechanics when their real work was supposed to be the mission. Professional-grade nonprofit software existed, but it was built for organizations with budgets, IT departments, and full-time staff to operate it. Nothing affordable worked for the rest of us.
So we built it. One integrated platform with the apps a small nonprofit actually needs, paired with coaching and community so you're never operating in a vacuum. Built by people who've sat in board meetings, navigated state filings, and wrestled with the same paperwork you're staring at now.
— The Build Your Club Academy team
One subscription. Three pillars. Everything a small nonprofit needs to operate professionally.
Everything from forming your 501(c)(3) to running your annual fundraising campaign — in one platform, with a single login.
Video library, group Zoom presentations, monthly training sessions, peer support — guidance built into your subscription.
1:1 coaching, fractional Executive Director services, and direct access to nonprofit specialists for when you need real help.
The all-in-one alternative to cobbling together 8 separate tools.
Every feature exists because a real nonprofit needed it. No bloat, no generic SaaS fluff, no "enterprise features" you'll never use.
Stop paying for separate tools that don't talk to each other. One platform, one login, one bill. Your data stays connected.
Starting at $33/month with annual billing ($39/month monthly) — less than what most single-purpose tools charge alone. And a free tier that's genuinely useful, not a trial in disguise.
It's not just software. Video curriculum, monthly Zoom presentations, and 1:1 coaching all come with your subscription. We help you USE the tools, not just access them.

Great — most members come to us after they're formed. The Bronze tier ($33/mo annual or $39/mo monthly) is designed exactly for newly-formed and small nonprofits that need help with compliance, board management, and operations audits. Silver and Gold add donor management, fundraising, grants, and more as you grow.
Most nonprofit software targets larger orgs with dedicated staff to operate it. We target the small org reality — solo EDs, volunteer boards, tight budgets. You get 15 apps for less than what one single-purpose tool typically charges. And coaching is included; you're not buying software in a vacuum.
No. Every app is built for nonprofit staff, board members, and volunteers — not developers. If you can use a web browser, you can use Build Your Club Academy. The onboarding video series walks you through every app.
Yes — no contracts, cancel any time from your account dashboard. Annual subscribers get a prorated refund for unused months.
Every paid tier includes a members community, video curriculum, and group Zoom presentations. Silver adds monthly live group training. Gold adds a monthly 1-hour 1:1 coaching call. Platinum adds 2 hours of 1:1 coaching plus done-for-you services like custom automation builds and annual 990 prep.
