Happy Monday. It's a big week. Spring '26 pre-release sandbox is live. If you're on NPSP, there are three things you need to check before the org-wide rollout. Details below. Also: the NPSP vs. NPC debate just got a lot more interesting after Salesforce's roadmap reveal at TrailheaDX.

Top Stories
NPSP
Spring '26: Community Built Fix for Gift Entry Timeout Issue
Since Salesforce isn't shipping NPSP updates, the community stepped up. Here's the solution a Trailblazer shared, plus how to test it safely in sandbox.
COMMUNITY THREAD
"We finally started our NPC migration. Here's everything we wish we knew."
A Salesforce Admin at a mid-size health nonprofit posted a 12-point retrospective on their 9 month migration. Reactions and replies are still rolling in.
AGENTFORCE
What Agentforce Actually Means for Your Nonprofit Org (in Plain English)
We cut through the marketing speak. Three realistic use cases for nonprofits under 50 staff, and two things to ignore for now.
Events
NPSP Days Chicago: Recap & Slides Available
All session slides are now posted. The data hygiene session from Lauren Kaufman was standing-room only.

01
Signal, not noise
We read everything so you read only what matters
The Trailblazer Community generates a constant stream of posts. The PUB Crawl surfaces the ones that are actually worth your time, vetted by people who spend every day supporting Salesforce orgs.
02
Community first
Written for admins, by people who know the ecosystem
The Soapbox Engage team has been in the Salesforce nonprofit ecosystem since 2007, with Salesforce multi-certified consultants and a long-time Salesforce Hall of Fame MVP on the team. We know the difference between a real update and a press release, and we write accordingly.
03
Context you can act on
Not just links. Actual context on why it matters.
Every story includes a brief on why it's relevant, what you need to do (if anything), and when to care. No clickbait, no vague summaries. Just useful information for busy admins.
