COMMENTS

“Donna is an exceptional trainer/presenter! I loved the way she included every detail. It’s especially nice when you’re new to DonorPerfect. Sometimes when you’re a newbie, things can seem overwhelming, but her demeanor was so warm and fuzzy. I especially loved her example of doing a backup. I also loved the fact that she might have forgotten or deleted a flag, but she showed that she is human and even the best trainers have hiccups. I loved this session!” – Donna, Shine Partnership Albuquerque

“Absolutely love Arlene and Donna. They present well together and loved having Donna giving information and Arlene answering questions in the comments. This was my favorite takeaway from the conference. Thank you!!”
– Martha, Three Square

“This was the most helpful session of the day by far, and Donna was the most engaging speaker all week!”
– Margaret, Pacekids Programs
