Data infrastructure for nonprofits
We help nonprofits raising $5M–$25M unify their data, see every donor clearly, and keep them coming back.
The retention crisis
85% of first-time donors never give a second gift. You spent thousands acquiring them — and they disappear before you even know their name.
Your donor data lives in 5–10 different platforms. You can't see who's at risk of lapsing because you can't see them at all.
The average nonprofit retains just 43% of its donors year over year. Most organizations we talk to are well below that — and don’t even know it.
The difference between a stalling nonprofit and a scaling one isn't ambition. It's whether you can see your donors clearly enough to keep them.
How it works
2 weeks
We audit your systems and show you exactly where donors are falling through the cracks — and how much it's costing you.
4–12 weeks
We unify your scattered systems so you can see every donor, every gift, every interaction in one place. Your team starts identifying at-risk donors in real time.
Ongoing
Targeted outreach. Personalized impact reports. Lapsed donor reactivation. Your retention climbs — and your revenue follows.
What happens when you fix the data
In donations processed over four years. A platform with zero data infrastructure became a fully data-driven operation — with dashboards for every team and self-service answers in 60 seconds.
Our clients see an average 60% increase in first-time donor retention.
From our clients
Datstra has been an amazing addition to our team and our overall tech stack. They've essentially become our data team helping us become more efficient, more data-driven, and a lot more intentional in how we operate across our organization. The data warehouse they built has opened up so many possibilities for us. It's allowed us to expand, optimize, and even build new tools that serve our mission better. Whether it's donor insights, campaign performance, or internal reporting, Datstra has helped us level up across the board. We're grateful for onboarding them. Their professionalism and integrity have been exceptional.
Working with Datstra was life changing. They joined our team when we had no data team and data used to be a later 'to-do' item for engineering, often getting moved to tomorrow. This led to costly delays in decision making. No one had ever envisioned, designed and implemented an end to end data infrastructure at the company even though we already had 1M users. Datstra did that with mastery. They took the bull by the horns, worked with a lot of ambiguity and created clarity for everyone… such that the company couldn't imagine existing without a data team.
“Data today is yesterdays oil. And if you don't have your infrastructure in order — you won't be able to rely on it later when it matters.. like in 5 weeks time from now. Datstra was my go to daily team who would help me systematically think about data intelligence. They still are despite us not working together in the same company.”
