Can this tool edit organizations from Blackbaud Verified Network?
No. Private organizations are manually added by a grant manager or applicant for client-processed grant programs. For all other organizations, updates must be made by the registration authority or a registered Nonprofit Administrator in the Blackbaud Verified Network.
