Message From Our CEO
One of Blackbaud’s company values is “powered by 
purpose.” When we say this, we mean that that we’re 
motivated by more than creating great software: Our 
employees worldwide are energized by our 
opportunity to fuel social impact. And we walk our 
talk—taking action to amplify the difference we make 
in the world.
This report tells the story of how we’ve delivered on 
this value across our ESG (environmental, social, 
governance) priorities over the past year.
As the leading software provider wholly dedicated to 
powering social impact, we’re expanding what is 
possible across the nonprofit and private sectors, 
whether at companies committed to social 
responsibility, schools and higher education 
institutions, nonprofit organizations, or through the 
efforts of individual people determined to make a 
difference.
We’re committed to strengthening the impact we 
make through the way we operate our business, 
setting high standards, and reporting with 
transparency on the efforts we are making in priority 
areas including people and culture, fueling social 
impact through our products and services, driving 
climate solutions, and internal governance and data 
responsibility.
I’m proud of the progress this report details. I am 
even more proud of our exceptional team of 
employees around the world, and the unmatched 
community of customers we serve, who deliver this 
impact every day.
Thank you,
Mike Gianoni

Materiality Assessment
Materiality Survey
Through a formal materiality assessment completed in Q4 2021, we 
identified the ESG topics that are most important to our business and 
our stakeholders. The assessment included a survey of cross-functional, 
internal stakeholders across the company, delivered by an independent 
third party. During the survey, we asked participants to score the topics 
in two ways: the importance of each topic to our stakeholders and the 
ability and significance of Blackbaud making an impact on these topics. 
We used the results of the internal materiality survey to guide our 
approach and process of collecting external stakeholder input to 
further prioritize key ESG topics for Blackbaud. Blackbaud plans to 
check our assessment in 2023 with another survey of cross-functional 
and internal stakeholders.
• We requested feedback from the investor community through a series of one-
on-one conversations and Investor Relations sponsored events.
• We hired an external ESG consultant to assist in providing overall tech 
community priorities, particularly our peers’ priorities.
• We connected with ESG rating agencies and other third-party organizations to 
understand current and future priorities.
• We hired an environmental consultant to better understand the global climate 
strategy, potential SEC and other regulatory priorities and requirements.
• We solicited feedback from customers in ongoing one-on-one conversations 
as well as in our annual bbcon summit.
The survey results were scored and segmented to help prioritize the topics.

ESG Priorities
The collective feedback from our internal and external 
stakeholders was reviewed by our ESG Steering Team 
where a prioritization process resulted in four key 
priorities for Blackbaud. Establishing these key ESG 
priorities allowed us to focus our attention and 
resources in areas that really speak to the mission of 
our company: powering social impact. 
People and Culture is vital to our mission and 
includes our DE&I focus as well as our long history of 
philanthropy. 
Fueling Social Impact isn’t a traditional material topic; 
however, it is our mission. We enable individuals and 
organizations of all types to advance key ESG topics.

Reducing Our Global Emissions
In 2020, we announced a new workforce strategy, 
allowing employees the option to work from home. 
As a result, we reduced our real estate footprint and 
adopted an “on-demand” office space program. In 
2021, we formally adopted a remote-first workforce 
strategy allowing us to further reduce our real estate 
footprint. As a result of these actions, combined with 
the fact that we do not own our own data centers, 
our Scope 1 and 2 emissions have reduced by 90% 
since 2019.
Our focus and attention now turns to our Scope 3 
footprint and our ability to accurately measure and 
impact our Scope 3 emissions. This is our first 
attempt at quantifying our Scope 3 emissions. 
With the support of an external consultant, we 
calculated our Scope 3 footprint in line with the 
Greenhouse Gas Protocol, focusing on the hybrid 
method for Categories 1 and 2 to incorporate as 
much supplier-specific emissions data as possible. 
Our Scope 3 inventory covers all material categories, 
and we will continue to refine our methodology in 
coming years in line with greater data availability 
and best practices. We are now actively working 
towards a strategy to reduce our Scope 3 emissions 
across categories.
Measuring and Managing Scope 3
The following is a breakdown of our Scope 1, 2 and 3 
emissions for calendar year 2022. As shown, Scope 3 
emissions account for 97% of our total emissions 
footprint.

As in 2021, in 2022 we achieved carbon neutrality 
across our business operations through a 
combination of on-site solar, Environmental Attribute 
Certificates (EACs) and reforestation carbon offset 
projects. 
Investing in credits and offsets is not the long-term 
solution. Ultimately, our goal is to shift from energy 
sources derived from hydrocarbons to 100% 
renewable sources. In the near term, however, we 
value investing in renewable and reforestation 
projects—not for the sole purpose of claiming 
“carbon neutral” but to help fuel projects, 
organizations, and initiatives that are making real 
impact.
We achieved carbon neutrality in 2022 through the 
purchase of 2,229 EAC‘s, covering our Scope 2 
emissions, and 4,036 carbon offsets, covering our 
Scope 1 and the following Scope 3 categories: Data 
Center, Waste, Business Travel, Work from Home, 
and Employee Commuting. We will continue to 
reevaluate offset options each year to ensure we 
are making a real and significant impact.
We are proud to announce that in 2022 we invested 
in the following reforestation carbon offset projects:

Blackbaud is a proud philanthropic sponsor of 
Project Drawdown, a nonprofit focused on solutions 
to climate change. In addition to supporting their 
efforts to identify research-based climate solutions, 
we support their Drawdown Stories initiative, 
showcasing various people in climate careers that 
are making an impact. 
The guiding principle of Drawdown Stories is Climate 
Solutions in Color. Through Climate Solutions in 
Color, they work to “pass the mic” to the climate 
heroes who often go unheard. Often the most 
vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and the 
climate crisis are not represented in climate 
conversations.
Engaging our employees in this work is important to 
us. In 2022, we partnered with Project Drawdown 
and employees in the Sustainability Affinity Group to 
hold a series of movie screenings and educational 
sessions for employees to learn about climate 
change and how they can help achieve drawdown—
the point in the future when levels of greenhouse 
gases in the atmosphere stop climbing and start to 
steadily decline.

Project Drawdown’s Impact:
Below are some highlights from Project Drawdown’s 
2022 impact report summarizing the areas of impact 
supported by Blackbaud's commitment. 
• In November 2022, Project Drawdown announced Project 
Drawdown’s new world-class science team. This in-
house team will deepen their climate science, develop 
new partnerships with academic institutions across the 
country, expand reach through writing and speaking 
opportunities, and allow better support to leaders taking 
climate action.
• This year Project Drawdown greatly advanced work to 
engage with leaders who can rapidly scale climate 
solutions, including business leaders, philanthropists, 
investors and the international development community. 
Drawdown Labs, Project Drawdown’s private-sector 
testing ground for scaling climate solutions, works with 
businesses to implement a drawdown-aligned 
framework and engage employees in climate action.
• On the employee engagement side, Project Drawdown 
launched an inaugural series with GreenBiz, telling stories 
of how employees are taking action in the workplace.

Employee Engagement
Listening to Our People
Our vision is to create a culture that thrives and 
delivers an engaged, inclusive employee experiences 
to all. To do this, we feel it is critical to request 
feedback and hear from our employees. We do 
this by:
•
Conducting an annual employee engagement survey 
and integrating that feedback into company goals and 
initiatives.
•
Conducting pulse surveys that allow us to focus on key 
issues or relevant topics.
•
Assess engagement on the team and company level 
through "Ask Anything" sessions with senior leaders 
and dedicated Q&A sessions in our company-wide All 
Hands meetings.
Our purpose attracts and retains talented, diverse, 
and competitive applicants. Approximately 90% of 
employees say the fact that Blackbaud operates in a 
socially responsible manner is important to them. 
This differentiator not only builds stronger employee 
engagement, but also helps us provide a higher level 
of service to our customers. Almost 70% of 
employees reported that they continued to 
volunteer during the pandemic, despite its unique 
challenges, and one in seven serve on a nonprofit 
board or committee—direct experience that enables 
them to better serve our customer base.

experience across both the private sector and US 
government. Headcount increased 154% since 
January 1, 2020, and we anticipate continued 
growth by nearly 40% by end of 2023. This is on 
top of and measured against industry frameworks 
such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NIST 
CSF). The program supports compliance activities 
that produce annual PCI DSS, SOC 1, and SOC 2 
Type 2 reports that we make available to all 
customers.
More tactically, the Trust and Security team manages 
an extensive set of controls across enterprise and 
product security. We leverage industry-leading tools 
to implement anti-virus, intrusion prevention, data 
protection, vulnerability management, cloud security, 
and event management capabilities, among many 
others. 
Our security teams leverage a variety of capabilities, 
from adversarial emulation and source code analysis 
to third-party penetration testing, and we routinely

Risk Management
Our Approach
We maintain formalized policies and procedures 
through the Blackbaud Business Continuity 
Management Program—modeled after the NIST 
800-34 contingency plan for federal information 
systems. The program strategically equips internal 
teams to protect, sustain, and recover operations 
for best assuring the resiliency of the business.
Even in the event of a crisis or disaster, we can 
ensure unwavering partnership for our customers. 
Additionally, we recognize our responsibility to 
assist in lessening the effects of climate change 
on the environment.
Each of the Board committees oversees risks 
associated with its respective areas of responsibility:
The Audit Committee oversees risk related to our 
accounting, tax, financial, and public disclosure 
processes and assesses risks associated with our 
financial assets.
The Compensation Committee oversees risks related 
to our compensation and benefit plans, programs, 
and policies to ensure sound pay practices that do 
not enable risks that are reasonably likely to have a 
material adverse effect on our company.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance 
Committee seeks to minimize risks related to 
governance structure by implementing sound 
corporate governance principles and practices.
Organizational Risk Alignment
The Risk Oversight Committee assists in the 
oversight of:
• Blackbaud’s risk management, compliance, and 
control activities as they relate to information 
technology security
• Cybersecurity risks, including cyber risk management 
practices, adequacy of cyber-insurance, adequacy of 
an incident response plan, and our ability to respond 
to a cyber breach
• Our systems of operational controls regarding certain 
legal and regulatory compliance
• Compliance with certain legal and regulatory 
requirements

Blackbaud is providing the following table that 
indicates where readers can find disclosures that 
address the recommendations of the Task Forces on 
Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). 
Blackbaud intends to further align its disclosures 
with the recommendations of the TCFD by 
completing scenario analysis. That work is underway 
and will be documented in our 2023 report.

Governance
a) Describe the board’s oversight of climate-related risks 
and opportunities.
Blackbaud’s CEO and the Board of Directors Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversee ESG and 
climate-related risks. In addition, we have an ESG Steering Committee chaired by the vice president of Global Social 
Responsibility and comprised of designated members from the Executive Leadership Team, as well as other senior 
leaders. The Committee engages with stakeholders, including employee affinity groups, to determine ESG priorities and 
is responsible for ensuring that they are adopted throughout the company. The Committee is accountable to the ESG 
executive sponsor, Blackbaud’s CEO.
b) Describe management’s role in assessing and 
managing climate-related risks and opportunities.
Blackbaud’s CEO, the Board of Directors Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the ESG Steering 
Committee oversee the implications of sustainability issues and climate change. These committees consider the 
implications of climate change for the business and oversee the company’s strategic planning of resources and 
investments in response to the risk and opportunities that might arise.

Strategy
a)
Describe the climate-related risks and opportunities 
the organization has identified over the short, 
medium, and long term.
b) Describe the impact of climate-related risks and 
opportunities on the organization’s businesses, 
strategy, and financial planning.
We are in the process of evaluating both the risks and opportunities of climate change. We have completed a cursory 
analysis of our risks but plan to do a more extensive review of these risks in future reports.
We have not yet completed a scenario analysis to identify opportunities. We hope to conduct a scenario analysis soon.
For our initial risk review, we have identified climate-related risks and opportunities that may affect us over the short-, 
medium-, and long-term. These include:
Physical Risks: The long-term effects of climate change on the global economy and our industry may impact our 
business operations and those of our suppliers, customers and partners. Climate change increases the severity and 
frequency of extreme weather events such as hurricanes, wildfires, floods, heat waves, or power shortages, all of which 
could lead to business disruptions. The locations of our principal executive offices and our data centers are vulnerable 
to the effects of climate events and other natural disasters, including hurricanes, heat waves and earthquakes, which we 
have experienced in the past. In addition, the effects of climate change are harder to mitigate for our remote-first 
workforce, which exposes the Company to business disruption. Even though we carry business interruption insurance 
policies and typically have provisions in our commercial contracts that protect us in certain events, we might suffer 
losses as a result of business interruptions that exceed the coverage available under our insurance policies or for which 
we do not have coverage. Any natural disaster or catastrophic event affecting us could have a significant negative 
impact on our operations.
Regulatory Risks: Expected new regulations and standards relating to public disclosure, including those related to 
climate change, could adversely impose significant costs on us to comply with such regulations.
Reputation Risks: A failure to meet our climate-related goals, such as our commitment and progress towards reduction 
of greenhouse gas emissions, could damage our reputation, affect our financial performance and ability to attract and 
retain talent.

c)  Describe the resilience of the organization’s strategy, 
taking into consideration different climate related 
scenarios, including a 2°C or lower scenario.
Blackbaud has not yet performed a detailed scenario analysis.  We intend to do more work in this area in 2023/2024. 
We plan to evaluate if and where our strategies may be affected by climate-related risks and opportunities as well as 
how our strategies might change to address such potential risks and opportunities.

Risk Management
a) Describe the organization’s processes for 
identifying and
assessing climate related risks.
Blackbaud is in the early stages of formally identifying and assessing climate related risks. Our goal is to leverage our Executive 
Leadership Team, ESG Steering Team along with our Workforce Strategy, Real Estate and Enterprise Risk teams to identify and 
assess climate-related risks. We plan to conduct more thorough qualitative and quantitative climate-related physical and 
transition risk and opportunity assessments.
b) Describe the organization’s processes for 
managing climate related risks.
As with other key enterprise risks, climate-related risks will be managed as part of our cross-functional enterprise risk 
management process that includes our Executive Leadership Team and our Board of Directors through its Risk Committee and 
Nominating and Governance Committee.
Additionally, the ESG Steering Team will work closely with our Enterprise Risk Team to consider climate-related risks in connection 
with developing climate-related goals and operational strategies to achieve our objectives. 
c) Describe how processes for
identifying, assessing, and managing climate 
related risks are integrated into the 
organization’s overall risk management.
The ESG Steering Team and our Executive Leadership Team will determine how climate risks are integrated in our organizations 
overall risk management process. The ESG Steering Team meets quarterly to discuss ESG topics including climate-related risks, 
opportunities, and strategies to advance our ESG goals. 
Our Workforce Strategy, Real Estate and Enterprise Risk teams traditionally manage physical climate-related risks as part of our
Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery functions. This includes extreme weather events and natural disasters.  
Our Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plans are reviewed on a regular basis to ensure steps are in place to identify and
respond before, during, and after a service continuity event.
