Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 11/2/2023 "Foundation Source has been a HUGE help to our family foundation" 5/5 What do you like best about Foundation Source? Foundation Source has been extremely helpful with our family foundation's diligence of nonprofit organizations. They've provided research assistance and confirmation of tax compliance to protect against any unwanted penalties, and they have done a superb job with our annual tax filings. I couldn't be happier with the level of customer service our account representative has provided. She makes it feel like she works solely for our family because she's not only available when we need her, but she has an understanding of our priority causes and inner-working. I highly recommend Foundation Source to others hoping to move from decades-old spreadsheets and checkbooks to a more sophisticated, yet still very user-friendly, digital platform with a knowledgeable team available to assist on a daily basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Foundation Source? I can't think of any downsides to using Foundation Source. Our family foundation has only benefitted from our engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Foundation Source solving and how is that benefiting you? Foundation Source is doing a wonderful job for our family foundation when it comes to both compliance and reporting. Prior to working with them, our CPA would be weighed down with folders and spreadsheets of gifts and receipts from the entire year. We had a very reactionary approach. Now, we are proactive and much more efficient. We have a team to help us diligence grantees and ensure our grants are in compliance with all applicable tax regulations long before year-end. As well, Foundation Source has helped us to improve reporting efficiency. Rather than manually create charts and reports for trustee meetings, we are now able to rely on quality and accurate reports available at the click of a button on the FSOL portal. We've been able to dig into our data and streamline a lot of our discussions thanks to improved processed and reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
