Stop guessing, start winning: Introducing the Bonterra Nonprofit Hub, where visibility, intelligence, and action meet

Over the past 30 years, the number of nonprofits has grown 143%, while charitable giving has stayed remarkably flat at roughly 2% of US GDP. Private funders have only seen a 68% increase in the same timeframe, as federal dollars are continuously withheld and concentrated among the largest players in the social sector.

As a result, more organizations are competing for the same dollars, and the smallest ones feel it most. They lack the necessary fundraising expertise, funder visibility, and the time to chase every opportunity. Meanwhile, AI is quickly integrating into (and across) organizations that already have more data, money, and technical talent. Most nonprofits struggle to optimize one of these.

The result is a widening gap between the institutions that can afford to invest in intelligence and the small teams doing the work on the ground — the ones closest to the communities they serve, and often the ones with the least support.

The networked intelligence small nonprofits have been missing

Today, we’re officially launching a new kind of platform: the Bonterra Nonprofit Hub, formerly known as FrontDoor, making advanced fundraising intelligence within reach of every US nonprofit by providing free access to network-powered AI coaching and grant management. It’s the kind of expertise that used to require a consultant or an expensive tool. Instead of stitching together separate systems for grant research and fundraising strategy, you get one place where visibility, intelligence, and action reinforce each other.

• Visibility comes in the form of a nonprofit profile that makes you discoverable to funders actively looking for missions like yours.
• Intelligence is gained through real-time guidance grounded in funder data, not generic best practices.
• Action is your ability to move from finding the right grants, to evaluating them for fit, to drafting a proposal in a few hours, not days.

Whether you’re growing individual donors, pursuing grants, or both, the Hub is where you stop guessing and start winning.

How Nonprofit Hub helps nonprofits raise more

Raising more money isn’t about working harder, especially when most nonprofit teams are already stretched thin. The shift comes from knowing where to focus, who to reach, and what to say.

Nonprofit Hub brings those answers together in three ways:

• makes you visible to funders looking for organizations like yours
• coaches you through fundraising guidance with smart, intelligent, agentic AI
• helps you find and win grants that fit your mission

Here’s how each piece works together.

Get discovered through the Bonterra Network

Too many small nonprofits are invisible to the funders who want to support their cause. Your Hub profile is the solution. It connects you to 400+ institutional funders distributing billions in annual grants and millions of individual donors already using the network to find aligned organizations.

Like a social network, the value compounds: The more the network knows about your mission and work, the more precisely it can connect you to the right supporters. And because your profile serves as the foundation for everything else in Nonprofit Hub, you’re building visibility and fundraising capacity at the same time.

Fundraise with confidence using Bonterra Que

At the center of the Hub is Bonterra Que, an AI fundraising assistant built on 30 years of hands-on coaching and campaign data with 20K+ nonprofits and 90K+ proprietary templates, checklists, and best-practice guides. Ask Que to design a campaign, segment your donors, draft a fundraising email, or pressure-test your strategy, and you get guidance specific to your organization.

Que draws on the Bonterra Network’s 640M+ transactions and patterns from 213K+ nonprofits, so its recommendations reflect what has routinely worked for organizations like yours. The more you use it, the more personalized your guidance becomes — and you stay in control, reviewing and approving every suggestion before it publishes.

Find grants worth pursuing with GrantMatch

Every month, nonprofits waste hours discovering that a grant was never a fit to begin with, then more hours (sometimes days or even weeks) writing proposals they couldn’t win. GrantMatch analyzes what each funder funds — based on intelligent giving patterns, not their website — so you see alignment strength before you invest precious time.

It integrates with Grants.gov, spanning 1K+ grantmaking programs that collectively award $500B+ annually, and helps you draft tailored proposals you can then refine in your own voice. Spend less time chasing dead ends and more time pursuing high-fit opportunities.

What this means for the next phase of fundraising and philanthropy

The Hub is much more than a set of features, as it fundamentally changes how small nonprofits can operate moving forward. When visibility, intelligence, and action live in one place, grounded in verified funder and donor behavior, fundraising stops being a series of educated guesses and starts being a repeatable practice. Instead of spreading effort across long-shot opportunities, you focus on the ones you can realistically win.

With Que and GrantMatch drawing on the largest relational dataset in social good, the guidance you get is credible, contextual, and specific to your mission. It’s the difference between generic advice and actionable insight that converts as you scale. For the first time, advanced, network-powered AI isn’t reserved for the largest organizations with the biggest budgets. Now, it’s free and available to every nonprofit in America — including yours and the ones you support.
