Membership Software for Support Groups and Personal Development
Online administration tools for you and Self-service portal for your members
At the heart of any personal development or support group, you'll find people - whether your mission is to care for the caregivers, or to enrich the lives of disabled children, or to help the most fragile among us find peace and healing. But running a support group isn't easy.
Staying connected with your members, arranging for meetings and events, recruiting speakers and volunteers and helpful professionals, and trying to keep your cause in the public eye... You've got contact lists and research notes and a million personal details about your members to keep track of, and you can't even bring in a temp to share the paperwork because so much of that information is confidential. At the same time, if your group is like most, you've got to drum up donations to keep your programs running. It all takes time and energy - on top of your emotional investment. And the chances are, you could be feeling a bit burned out.
What if you had a way to put some of your tasks on automatic? Imagine if your members could sign up, pay up, and update their own contact information online. If they could register themselves for group events and get email reminders on schedule, automatically. If all your mailing lists could be integrated in one easy-to-use database. And if you could give your members a way to connect and interact with each other online, 24/7 - whenever they need to reach out!
Wild Apricot is designed to simplify and automate the day-to-day administration tasks of running a support group, so you can concentrate on people instead of paperwork.
