About The Unforgettables Foundation
The Unforgettables Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing funeral and memorial services for families who have lost a child but cannot afford the costs. With fewer than 10 employees, every minute spent on administrative tasks is a minute taken away from their vital mission.
The Challenge
Despite having a small team, the foundation's previous payroll platform was built for much larger organizations. The complexity of the system meant that even simple tasks like running payroll or making adjustments took far longer than they should. For a lean non-profit where every team member wears multiple hats, the lost time was significant and frustrating.
The Symply Solution
Symply provided a payroll platform that matched the scale and simplicity the foundation needed. The system was easy to set up, easy to use, and required minimal time each pay period. There were no unnecessary features creating confusion — just the essential tools a small non-profit needs to pay its team accurately and on time.
The Results
After switching to Symply, the foundation reduced its payroll processing time by more than an hour per pay period. For a small team, that time savings is significant and measurable. The simplified workflow meant that payroll was no longer a dreaded administrative burden but a quick, routine task. The foundation expressed complete satisfaction with the platform, allowing them to redirect their energy to the families they serve.
