No Matter How Shiny It Is...

Paul Morris is the Founder/Principal of Foundry Fundraising. We talk about the nonprofit sector's use of technology. Among the things we discuss: Technology won't do the work for you and doesn't solve all your problems. Nonprofits are woefully underinvesting in the technology tools needed, especially for development. There seems to be three reasons for this: Nonprofits don't have to invest wildly, they can and should be smart about it. The right tools supports the work. The impact of this underinvestment? Wasting a ton of time - staff, stakeholders, volunteers, donors. The risk to not investing has short-term and long-term impacts. We welcome support of the Nonprofit SnapCast via Patreon. We welcome your questions and feedback via The Nonprofit Snapshot website. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.
