Managed IT Services for Non-profit Firms
Secure Reliable IT Solutions for Non-profit Firms
Non-profit firms rely on technology to connect donors, sponsors and volunteers, and to raise awareness in their communities. Non-profit “back-office” functions such as financial reporting, sustainability planning, and performance measurement require technology. Many non-profits have the same IT requirements as their “for profit” cousins, driven by the expectations of their community. Non-profits operate on tight budgets, so the cost of up-to-date technology can seem prohibitive. However, the right technology helps nonprofits significantly by helping them increase their revenue. It can also spawn innovation, improvements in efficacy, and better delivery on mission.
