We would like to thank the Los Angeles philanthropic community for participating in this important discussion. Also a special thanks to Allison Gister, Richelle Pittella, and the Conrad N.

Grantmaking organizations are constantly seeking ways to increase efficiency. Ideally, this involves keeping all grantmaking data and processes within a single system. Third-party integrations are a great way to leverage the power of tools that specialize in services like document management, data visualization, and digital signature, without the need to switch between multiple platforms on the fly. Here are 7 third-party integrations that every grants management system should support.  https://hubs.ly/Q02KRX2K0
