Little Green Light review

Little Green Light is a plain, well-documented donor database for small nonprofits. Every account includes the same full feature set: constituent records with custom tags, gift and pledge tracking, acknowledgments, built-in and custom reports, mail merge letters, scheduled reports, major gift task tracking, grant proposals, membership levels and renewals, volunteer hours by task, event invitations and attendance, and alumni lists by class year. LGL forms collect online gifts and sync them to records, and the company charges no fee of its own on those donations; Stripe or PayPal processing starts at 2.2% plus $0.30. Pricing depends only on record count, from $45 per month for up to 2,500 constituents to $135 per month for 50,000, with unlimited users and a 10% discount for paying annually. The tradeoff is a lighter set of automation and engagement tools than the category leaders, and online forms rely on Stripe or PayPal for processing.
