PR Newswire (US) Report Reflects Commitment to Strong ESG Practices as The World's Most Trusted and Powerful AI Engine for Social ImpactCHARLESTON, S.C., May 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Blackbaud (NASDAQ: BLKB), the world's leading provider of AI-powered solutions for social impact, today released its 2025 Impact Report, outlining the company's environmental, social, and governance performance and detailing how it is intentionally aligning innovation with responsibility as AI adoption accelerates. As technology advances at unprecedented speed, Blackbaud is focused on ensuring trust keeps pace with progress. The report reflects the company's belief that how it operates matters as much as what it builds, and that long-term, sustainable impact depends on clear standards, strong oversight, and accountability."As AI innovation accelerates, responsibility isn't optional; it's foundational," said Mike Gianoni, president, CEO, and vice chairman of the board of directors of Blackbaud. "Our customers' missions depend on trust.

Blackbaud's Latest Product Innovations Reflect Company's Defensible Market Position; Anchored in Data, Context, and TrustMay 15, 2026 10:30 AM
PR Newswire (US) Trusted AI Engine Unites Horizontal Coherence with Vertical Intelligence for Enduring AI Value in the Social Impact SectorCHARLESTON, S.C., May 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Blackbaud (NASDAQ: BLKB), the world's leading provider of AI-powered solutions for social impact, announced a series of product innovations this week that reflect the company's belief that durable leadership in the AI era will be defined not by standalone features or generic AI, but by intelligent systems that are deeply embedded, difficult to replicate, and trusted to act. With decades of proprietary data, purpose-built workflows, and extensive sector expertise, Blackbaud is extending the strategic relevance of its platforms as customer expectations shift from insight to execution.Blackbaud's Latest Product Innovations Reflect Company's Defensible Market Position; Anchored in Data, Context, Trust"Leadership in AI will not be defined by how much intelligence a system can generate, but by how confidently users are willing to act on it," said Mike Gianoni, president, CEO and vice chairman of the board of directors of Blackbaud. "In social impact, trust is foundational. That's why we're putting responsible AI principles at the center of everything we do; making sure Blackbaud AI is designed with unmatched context, clear guardrails, and consistent human oversight so innovation accelerates impact rather than introducing risk."As AI reshapes the software industry, Gianoni is advancing a clear point of view on where lasting advantage will reside: the company is building its next era of solutions as an AI engine that combines Blackbaud's data and context moats to propel better outcomes for customers, resulting in the ultimate differentiator: a trust moat. As trust increases, individuals and organizations become more comfortable shifting from acting themselves to letting Blackbaud AI act with them, or for them, under clear direction and guardrails. At the sector-wide level, the Blackbaud Verified Network has built a layer of trust by reducing friction and increasing the speed and transparency of connection across the sector."When technology earns trust, it changes what's possible," Gianoni said. "That's the future we're building toward—one where insight, context, and choice come together to help the people changing the world move faster and achieve outcomes that were previously out of reach."Across its portfolio, Blackbaud's recent innovations demonstrate this strategy in action by embedding AI directly into systems of record to move organizations from insight to execution:The Development Agent, the first of Blackbaud's Agents for Good™ introduced to U.S. Raiser's Edge NXT® customers earlier this year, represents a new class of purpose-built, autonomous AI agents embedded directly in a social impact system of record. Development Agent expands fundraising team capacity to engage one-on-one with thousands of donors via email and text messages, which can increase affinity and giving.Capabilities such as Chat for Blackbaud AI embed conversational, context-aware intelligence across Blackbaud's core solutions, enabling users to move from insight to action within the platform itself by surfacing insights, summarizing key information, suggesting next steps, and generating communication drafts. By keeping decision-making and execution inside the system of record, these experiences reduce daily friction and deepen customer engagement.Across financial management and fundraising, Blackbaud is applying AI to expand operating leverage without introducing unnecessary governance risk. From automating high-volume document workflows to delivering adaptive, data-driven fundraising insights through Prospect Insights Pro, these capabilities improve efficiency and decision quality while supporting scale in complex, regulated operating environments.In the education space, Blackbaud is introducing AI-powered capabilities designed to improve outcomes without scaling workload or staffing levels with features like Blackbaud Billing Management™ Collections Assistant, designed to help schools take a more proactive, thoughtful approach to collections while preserving strong family relationships.Beyond individual customer workflows, Blackbaud continues to invest in ecosystem-level efficiency through innovations like Expedited Giving, which can disburse corporate employee giving to recipient nonprofits in just hours (up to 95% faster than alternatives in the market), enhancing trust across the giving lifecycle and extending Blackbaud's role as a critical connector in the social impact economy.Together, these advances underscore Blackbaud's conviction that enduring AI value will be created by platforms that combine breadth and depth—horizontal reach and vertical intelligence—within trusted systems organizations depend on to operate. By anchoring innovation in data, context, and trust, Blackbaud is positioning its solutions to remain essential as the AI landscape evolves.A full list of recently announced product updates is available on the Blackbaud Newsroom.About Blackbaud

As the Presenting Sponsor of the Association of Fundraising Professionals' Flagship Event, Blackbaud will Enable Fundraisers with the Power of Responsible AICHARLESTON, S.C., April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Blackbaud (NASDAQ: BLKB), the world's leading provider of AI-powered solutions for social impact, is proud to once again serve as the presenting sponsor of AFP ICON, the flagship global conference of the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), taking place this week in San Diego.As the longstanding category leader in social impact technology, Blackbaud has a proven history of supporting and advancing the fundraising profession, partnering with social impact organizations to advance global missions. Blackbaud is now ushering the sector into a new era of impact, equipping fundraisers with purpose-built, responsible AI tools that help them navigate increasing complexity, meet donor expectations, and accelerate their outcomes.According to research from the Blackbaud Institute, the typical nonprofit saw approximately 4.3% revenue growth last year, but growth was concentrated among organizations with greater capacity. When resources are scarce, adding capacity can be a challenge, which is why technology that has the power to amplify fundraising results is critical."Fundraisers are being asked to do more than ever. They need to build deeper relationships, personalize engagement at scale, and raise more, often with limited time and resources," said Tiffany Crumpton, vice president, head of donor management and fundraising products, Blackbaud. "Our commitment is to help advance the profession by equipping fundraisers with powerful solutions that have intelligent capabilities embedded directly in their day-to-day workflows to scale personalization, and translate philanthropic insight into real-world impact. AFP is a critical partner in shaping the future of fundraising, and together we share a deep commitment to trust, ethics, education, and progress across the sector."Responsible AI That's Propelling Fundraising Forward
At AFP ICON 2026, Blackbaud will showcase how its AI solutions designed specifically for fundraising and embedded directly into existing workflows are enabling teams to work smarter, expand their capacity, build stronger donor relationships, and accelerate impact.Blackbaud will highlight its latest AI innovations including:The Development Agent, Blackbaud's first Agent for Good™: This autonomous, AI-powered digital teammate is the first-ever expert agent to be embedded in a dedicated social impact platform. Working alongside Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT® users, the Development Agent identifies, cultivates and engages donors with timely, individualized and brand-aligned outreach that enables fundraising teams to expand their capacity for donor engagement and grow giving at scale.Intelligent Assistance for Raiser's Edge NXT: These AI features help fundraisers work more efficiently by automating workflows and delivering advanced analytics to inform smarter decisions. AI-enhanced intelligent assistance in Raiser's Edge NXT surfaces strategic insights and recommended actions, boosting productivity while keeping fundraisers firmly in control.Action Strategies in Raiser's Edge NXT: New Action Strategies reduce the prep time required for donor outreach by compiling relevant donor context—recent activity, engagement signals, preferences, and recommended next steps—into concise, easy-to-read briefings within existing workflows. This amplifies fundraisers' expertise and gives them more time to spend building relationships that drive philanthropic outcomes.Blackbaud's commitment to building trustworthy, industry-specific AI at scale recently earned recognition from Microsoft. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, Blackbaud has achieved the Certified Software for Non-Profit AI designation for Raiser's Edge NXT, signaling that its AI capabilities meet Microsoft's standards for enterprise-grade security, interoperability, and customer value. This is an important differentiator for customers seeking confidence as they adopt agentic and generative AI in mission-critical environments. Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT, Blackbaud Development Agent and other purpose-built solutions are available as transactable offers through Microsoft's Commercial Marketplace.The Power of Connected Systems
AFP ICON attendees can also learn how their organizations can benefit from Blackbaud's unique network effect as the provider that connects the entire social impact ecosystem, from fundraising to corporate impact to financial management and more.Tapping into Workplace Giving: With the Blackbaud Verified Network, nonprofits can boost their visibility to over 500 companies and nine million employees who partner with YourCause® from Blackbaud® to power their purpose in employee giving, volunteering and community investment initiatives. Being part of the Network builds credibility with donors and unlocks the fastest donation processing in the market.
