Ah, Sheets! One of our favourite tools. Google Sheets is more than just a spreadsheet. It can be a database, a planning tool, a reporting dashboard, or an organising space for anything your non-profit needs. You can use it to manage volunteer rosters, grant pipelines, contact lists, budgets, project plans, or survey responses. And because it's part of Google Workspace for Nonprofits, it's free and integrates easily with Gmail, Forms, Calendar, and Drive.
One of the best things about Sheets is how easily it connects with other platforms. It works with hundreds of automation tools, so you can pull in data from forms, sync with email lists, or trigger actions without writing any code. If your organisation doesn't need a full CRM, Sheets is often more than enough. It's flexible, powerful, and easy for anyone on your team to use.
