CiviCRM

CiviCRM is a web-based, internationalized suite of computer software for constituency relationship management, that falls under the broad rubric of customer relationship management. It is specifically designed for the needs of non-profits.

CiviCRM is used by many large NGOs including Amnesty International, Creative Commons, the Free Software Foundation, and the Wikimedia Foundation for their fundraising (ref. Wikipedia article).

Installation

Install the latest Drupal 7.

Download the latest version of CiviCRM.

Follow the installation guide.

Full documentation is hosted by CiviCRM.

Note: You need to change /etc/mysql/my.cnf to enable InnoDB - just comment out the skip-innodb line (add # to the front of it). This may have unexpected effects on other CMSes, that use MyISAM.
