What are people saying about WIST?
Great question. Take a look!
"Whether doing the groundwork of whipping an unorganized database into shape or leading the kind of hands-on training which allows our fundraising team to do their best work going forward, WIST has been an absolute godsend for our organization (not to mention our bottom line). We cannot recommend Judith and the team at WIST Data highly enough."
​
-Ben Aguilar, Director of Operations
"Catholic Education Foundation was in need of solutions tailored to our organization's strengths and weaknesses. Judith Youngblood and her team at WIST Data Solutions helped us streamline our database processes, leading to successes in fundraising and effective communication."
​
-Kevin S. Woodward, Director of Development
"As a newbie to Development working at a tiny nonprofit, I found LGL's free trainings helpful—but we also realized we had org-specific questions that required one-on-one support. I invested in nearly 10 hours of private tutoring with Judith, and she was incredibly helpful!
​
Judith is a wealth of knowledge and a patient, thoughtful teacher. She asked great questions that helped me better understand both LGL and our organization’s unique needs— questions that also helped me flex my own (new) Development muscles. If we ran into a tricky org-specific issue, she did her own research or consulted her team to find the answer. She also shared extra tips and tricks along the way, which made the whole experience even more valuable."

"Judith Youngblood and the WIST team have been an invaluable resource for our clients for several years. It is unusual to find so many database capabilities in one small company: analysis, reporting, training, problem-solving, interim staffing, to name just some services that WIST has provided to our nonprofit clients. I tell clients that a fundraising program is only as good as its database, and I know that the WIST can tackle any issue."

-Mark Rountree, Executive VP
"WIST Data Solutions have provided invaluable support to our foundation. Judith has taught me more in 6 months than I learned in 2 years trying to navigate Blackbaud’s resources."

"Judith and her team are absolutely amazing. Judith helped me every step of the way when we switched from E-Tapestry to Raiser's Edge NXT. The transition to a new system can present many challenges but knowing I had Judith an email or call away made it so much easier. She is a fountain of knowledge and despite my best efforts I haven't stumped her yet. She helped me set up queries and reports, went above and beyond with advanced formatting of excel files for imports, and she gives great tips to make daily work easier and more efficient. Beside her seemingly endless knowledge of Raiser's Edge, she is a wonderful person to work with. She always responds quickly, can squeeze me in if I have an urgent question, and has a warm and welcoming personality. I cannot recommend her enough!"​

"WIST Data Solutions provided the exact help we needed to get set up with our first donor management system. They walked us through every step of the way from choosing the right product for our needs to entering data to integration with our website. I'm so excited to see how our fundraising capacity will increase because of this new tool and highly recommend partnering with WIST to grow your organization."
