We’re proud to share we’ve once again been honored with the TrustRadius Tech Cares Award. This annual award celebrates technology companies that demonstrate an exceptional commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR) and purpose-driven business practices.

“At Blackbaud, our purpose is woven into everything we do—from the solutions we build to the way we support our employees, customers and communities,” said Margaret “Maggie” Driscoll, chief people and culture officer, Blackbaud. “This award is a reflection of the passion and dedication our people have for making a meaningful impact, and we’re thrilled to be honored for the fourth consecutive year.”

To qualify for the Tech Cares Award, companies must demonstrate impactful CSR initiatives in areas such as volunteerism, inclusion, charitable giving, workplace culture, environmental sustainability and education.
