Here's the start of a sample donor database done in Excel.  The different rows represent individual donors while the columns are different information fields for each person. The right hand-side columns should each represent a specific column, allowing you to track the success of your fundraising efforts over a few years. Using the 'Data', 'Sort' feature, you can filter per column to say, pull out all the English or French speakers in your list, sort according to donation amount to see who are your higher donors or who hasn't donated in a few years

Here's a tipsheet to help you get started on developing a donor base. These notes are from the CoCo event "Charting the Journey: Fundraising in Quebec".
