I am an IT systems guy trying to advise a small, poor, low tech skills, non-profit about what membership/donations database tool they should use.

They have copies of both Access and FM Pro (8?) and have made a problematic 1st attempt in Access at adopting another orgs. Access database for use with their 400 members. Although they got their 400 members into the DB and deleted the originals, the approach isn't working for them. The original DB was badly designed and fixing / using it is over their head.

I am researching appropriate solutions and off of the top of my head, thinking of looking for an existing non-profit membership/donations template (etc.) front end for modifiable FM Pro back end as a way to go.

Can anyone suggest such ... or other cheap, easy and expandable/ modifiable solution ... or failing that ... an review article or other online or published resource that might guide me in my research?

Thanks,

db

I'd start here: FM Nonprofit Templates

This, specifically, looks good: Donations
