Efficient Crisis Resource Allocation with Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud

Highlights
Unified Request Portal
A single platform where families could request emergency assistance and receive timely support.
Priority & Allocation Logic
The nonprofit needed automated prioritization of requests based on urgency, location, and vulnerability.
Volunteer & Resource Management
Real-time tracking of volunteer availability and inventory was required to ensure rapid and efficient dispatch.
Manual & Fragmented Requests
Relief requests were submitted via calls and emails, causing delays and errors.
Difficulty Prioritizing Needs
Hard to determine which families needed immediate attention based on children, elderly, or medical conditions.
Delayed Volunteer & Supply Dispatch
Without automation, coordinating volunteers and allocating supplies was slow and inefficient.
Limited Visibility & Reporting
No real-time insight into available stock, active volunteers, or resources distributed across regions.
Service Requests Setup
Configured intake forms for families to submit requests for shelter, food, or medical aid, automatically captured in Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud.
Priority Allocation Logic
Custom logic categorized requests by urgency, location, and vulnerability, ensuring the most critical families received help first.
Volunteer & Supply Tracking
Linked volunteer availability and inventory with incoming requests, streamlining deployment of resources.
