Microsoft Fundraising & Engagement Retires End of Year 2026 – What’s next for non profits?

5 August @ 1:00 pm - 1:45 pm
Free
 EVENT OVERVIEW

Microsoft Fundraising & Engagement (F&E) will reach end‑of‑support this year on 31 December 2026, marking a significant shift for nonprofits across Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom and Southeast Asia who still rely on F&E to manage donors, campaigns, grants, events, and supporter journeys.

For many organisations, Fundraising & Engagement has become deeply embedded, with years of data, custom entities, integrations, reporting dependencies, and fundraising workflows built around it.

Transitioning away from Microsoft Fundraising & Engagement isn’t a simple solution swap. It requires careful consideration of your current environment’s complexity, future requirements, and the impact on your fundraising operations and supporter experience.

This 45 minute online session is designed to give not-for-profits clarity on what the F&E retirement announcement means in practical terms, what will continue to function after December 2026, what will cease, and what risks organisations should be aware of as they plan their next steps.

You’ll also see how modern fundraising platforms like Klevr Fundraising provide a supported alternative within the Microsoft ecosystem, and how eligible organisations can access a complimentary, Microsoft‑funded F&E Migration Assessment.

Whether you’ve already started planning or haven’t yet begun, this session provides a practical, example led walkthrough of how to navigate the transition smoothly and use it as an opportunity to modernise fundraising operations.
