Testimonials

“Cindy Cortinas has assisted me as a fundraiser, and St. Mark’s, as an institution for over a decade. Her knowledge of Raiser’s Edge has proved to be invaluable through many important projects for us. She has helped us with everything from a complete overhaul and database restructuring, integration with other Blackbaud products, overall database health and best practices, and time saving shortcuts for me as a fundraising office of one! She is an amazing resource and when it comes to Raiser’s Edge, I always call her first.”

Lou Ellen Stansell
Director of Development
St. Mark’s Episcopal School, Houston, TX

“We have contracted with Cindy multiple times over the past decade. She has been a lifesaver for Second Harvest Food Bank and our development and finance teams. We have relied on her expertise to help solve critical problems such as database clean-up and reorganization, refining processes, and implementing new tools and technology to better manage our donor data.”

Heather Sweeney
Director of Development
Second Harvest Food Bank, New Orleans, LA

“We have worked with Cindy on various Raiser’s Edge projects since 2007. Currently, she is helping us transition to RE NXT. Cindy provides training for us, sometimes specific training that helps us deal with unique issues. Her extensive experience working with nonprofits helps her advise us on best practices that we find extremely helpful. Over time, our fundraising program has benefitted a lot from Cindy’s input. We consider Cindy to be a trusted resource and a valuable addition to our data management work.”
