Welcome to DevMan, Little Eden Society!

This amazing client will be using DevMan to assist in managing their funding and finances. But using DevMan is but a fraction of what they actually do:

🌿 Little Eden started in May 1967, caring for three little girls. Their focus is that of providing life-long care for those who deal with severe mental and/or physical handicaps.

🍃 Today, a total of 300 children and adults live permanently at Little Eden. Since 1967 more than 1 000 children have lived at this haven, with the oldest resident having lived there for 35 years. Well done, Little Eden team! You are doing fantastic work.

✅ Exploring DevMan’s invoicing capabilities to streamline invoicing processes and reduce manual workload.
✅ Enhanced stakeholder communication tracking through Microsoft Outlook and DevMan CRM.
✅ Robust event management tools for seamless tracking and evaluation.
✅ Power BI dashboards optimised for real-time updates and user accessibility.
✅ Improved data alignment and HR/payroll integration for operational efficiency.

A week ago, we had an awesome opportunity to meetup with the StudyTrust team to discuss next year's adventure: a brand new application! 🥳

The DevMan team has been working long and hard on a new and improved application process as well as making the journey for the applicants themselves a lot more pleasant. Applicants can now monitor the status of their own applications. Less admin and enquires for you, the DevMan user! You're welcome 😁

Both teams were excited to discuss this new development, with DevMan eager to demo, and StudyTrust eager to implement. 🛠️

We look forward to 2025 and working closely with the StudyTrust team.

The DevMan team had the exciting opportunity to meet up with the Namibia University of Science and Technology team who have recently taken up alumni relations and development at their own university. They kicked it off with a tour of some of the universities in South Africa to become better acquainted with what the process involves.

Well done NUST team for trekking around Cape Town and visiting Cape Peninsula University of Technology, Stellenbosch University, University of Cape Town, and University of the Western Cape. Quite the journey! We are sure you enjoyed working with all these institutions as much as we do 🥳

The NUST Namibia team also noticed that the above institutions were using DevMan and wanted to meet to explore our products and services pertaining to software for alumni database management.

We loved being able to contribute to this team's new venture! We look forward to working with them again in the future 🙌

Thank you to Hepuree Nedra, Tobias Timotheus, Victoria Shongolo and Kaitira Kandjii for the amazing meetup 🤝

SARS will not defeat you!

This is what DevMan has done for our section 18A PBOs:

🔹We built a SARS IT3(d) export process that will help you export your donation data in a format required by SARS.

🔹A self-service portal has been designed for your donors to sign in and update their own tax information using their email and password.

Have you tried it out yet?

The event included keynote speeches, panel discussions, and interactive workshops that covered a range of topics relevant to marketing and communication, branding, alumni and fundraising.

It was a valuable opportunity to gain insights into the latest trends and best practices in the higher education sector.

Did you know that there has been an amendment to the regulations governing the issuing of section 18A certificates? If your organisation is registered to share these documents, please ensure that you are compliant!

Did you know that (SARS) is expecting more information from this tax season?

Do you have all the information needed to be compliant?

DevMan's system has been designed to streamline this information gathering.

We have a self-service portal that allows donors to complete these details online.

Not only does it gather important information, but this can all be automated to free up your time to focus on other important matters.

You can be assured that everything you need to make SARS happy is included in DevMan's system.
