Open Lost & Found[ 1 ]What is Steward?
A donor CRM for nonprofits with a development team of one to five. It keeps your donors, gifts, events, volunteers and inbox on one record and tells you each morning who needs you.
[ 2 ]Who is Steward for?
Organizations with a few hundred to ten thousand active donors, such as food pantries, pregnancy centers, rescues, riding programs and youth mentoring.
[ 3 ]How does Steward help with donor retention?
It measures each donor against their own giving rhythm, flags drift early, and runs first-year journeys so new donors get to the second gift.
[ 4 ]Can Steward replace our spreadsheets and other tools?
Yes. Donors, gifts, events, volunteers, letters and reports live in one place, and Steward connects to the giving tools you want to keep.

About a day of your time for most organizations, with every total checked to the cent and your old system kept running until you are sure.
[ 6 ]Does Steward take a cut of donations?
No. There is no platform fee on any gift. Gifts go to your own Stripe account.
[ 7 ]Will the AI email our donors?
Never on its own. The Agent drafts and organizes. Your staff decide and send.
[ 8 ]How much does Steward cost?
Everything is included, with your whole team and no platform fee. The pricing page says where the price starts.
You've spent years building these relationships. Steward doesn't replace any of that.
It just makes sure nobody you've ever thanked falls through the cracks again.
