Why Technology matters

Source: Pew Research Center surveys, 2000-2015.

84% of adult Americans are online. People who care about your cause and people who benefit from your work most likely have access to the Internet. Nonprofits now have the ability to reach, engage, and influence people who matter more efficiently than ever with the right technology. It is just as important for nonprofits to understand and communicate their technical needs as it is for them to find the right staff and vendors to build for impact.
