From Programs to Platform — Connected.Unified.
40 years of community impact. What if every program, every donor, every outcome could be connected?
Years of community service
Lives touched every year
Programs across British Columbia
The Opportunity Ahead
Sources Community Resource Society has spent 40 years building something remarkable — 30+ programs serving 40,000 people across 20+ locations in British Columbia. That growth happened because the mission demanded it, and extraordinary people answered the call.
Each of those programs runs on systems that work — donor databases, case management tools, financial tracking, HR platforms. They got Sources to $33 million in annual operations. The natural next step is connecting them.
What if every program outcome, every donor touchpoint, every workforce metric, and every financial report could flow into a single intelligence layer — giving leadership, the board, and funders the complete picture of Sources' impact?
The systems are ready to catch up to the mission.
The Connected Opportunity

Streamlined Reporting
The work your team does is extraordinary. Connected systems would give that work the reporting it deserves — faster, more accurate, and ready for funders and board alike.
Your Systems, Connected
