Blackbaud Named to TIME America's Best Companies of 2026 List

To determine the rankings, TIME partnered with data firm Statista to assess 1,000 top-performing public and private U.S. firms. The evaluation focused on three primary metrics: employee satisfaction, financial output, and transparency in sustainability reporting. For Blackbaud, the recognition serves as a milestone in its ongoing effort to balance a remote-flexible workforce with the integration of internal AI education.

Margaret Driscoll, the company's chief people and culture officer, attributed the honor to the dedication of staff members who manage complex workflows for nonprofits and educational institutions. Beyond internal culture, the firm has sought to lead the sector through its AI Coalition for Social Impact, a project designed to help organizations adopt machine learning tools responsibly. This latest accolade follows a string of similar industry citations from organizations including Forbes and Fast Company, further solidifying the firm's position in the global social impact technology market.
