With Release 3.75, the Salesforce.org Nonprofit Starter Pack adds NPSP Opportunity fields to field sets and tweaks the way the magic word REPLACE is used for Account Name updates:

We love working with good people to serve the nonprofit sector and, in terms of good people, it's hard to top the good folks at Redpath Consulting Group. The team at Redpath are wise in the ways of Salesforce.com, skilled at serving nonprofits, and have long hosted our mascot, Phil Penn Gwynn, in their Minneapolis offices. Given all this, we couldn't be happier to welcome them as the latest Soapbox Engage Partner.

Some partnerships are just destined to be. We couldn't feel more strongly about our latest as we warmly welcome iATS Payments, a leading provider of payment processing services for nonprofit organizations, into the Soapbox Engage family. Now, nonprofits can elect to use iATS for the seamless processing of online donations and event registrations with Soapbox. What is more, they can choose to have data from each donation and registration saved to Salesforce in real-time.

With the latest release of Soapbox Actions, nonprofits can create powerful and persuasive online letter writing campaigns that target key decision makers and save supporter data and letter details straight to their Salesforce instance.
