MicroEdge and Neulogic Announce Strategic Alliance
New York, NY, October 5, 2004 - MicroEdge, Inc., (including its NPO Solutions division) and Neulogic, two industry leaders serving community foundations and other grantmaking organizations, announced an agreement to provide personalized solutions for donors, professional advisors and others through the creation of personalized Web access.
The result of this agreement will be a new series of Internet-based solutions which will offer community foundations the ability to deliver specific information and functionality through a single, personalized Internet presence to any member of any audience they serve including donors, grant seekers, board members, or foundation management and staff.
The Cleveland Foundation will be the first organization to take advantage of this new solution. "This initiative offers us the opportunity to provide a complete suite of Web-based solutions for our donors and other constituents." stated Rick Batyko, Cleveland Foundation's Vice President for Communications and Marketing. "From a practical standpoint it means we will be able to deliver the information from our financial and grants managements systems through our primary Web site for the first time."
In addition Baton Rouge Area Foundation, The Foundation for the Carolinas, Community Foundation Serving Richmond and Central Virginia, Community Foundation of Central Florida and Greater Lorain Community Foundation have committed to participate in the initial release of these offerings.
"Not only do we share a large number of clients, but we also share a deep commitment to meeting their needs; this partnership is a real win for community foundations. The agreement to share information, strategy and resources provides the model required for grantmaking organizations to advance their capabilities well into the future." says Marsh Williams, Principal, Neulogic.
The agreement also provides for joint research and development by the two companies for additional products that will further advance online constituent service to better serve their 400 foundation clients in North America, as well as other grantmaking organizations around the globe.
"Our relationship with Neulogic has developed in depth over the last two years and is a very logical step for both organizations in serving our clients,” says Ephy Torenberg, President, MicroEdge. "We are truly pleased with the opportunities that this agreement will provide for community foundations, their donors and constituents."
