# ChurchCRM

ChurchCRM helps churches organize people and families, groups, events, attendance, giving, volunteers, and reports in one place.

**Free. No subscription. Your data is yours.**

ChurchCRM is open-source and self-hosted, so a church can choose where its information runs and how it is managed.
