Knicks · OT: Does anyone here work regularly with or in a Non-Profit Organization? (page 1)

Hope this can stick around in the main channel...it's a bit of a solicitation.

80% of Non Profits in the nation budget annual spend at < $1M
30% of all Non Profits in the nation budget annual spend at < 100K

That was 2019.

Covid19 hit...in-person volunteering nose-dived. The Non Profit Organizations that really want to do something...you hear about some of them in the news every day, but the facts are that as many as 90% of them have seriously scaled back all Operations and about 50% are in danger of going under. I talk to them every day and it's a struggle for them.

My company wants to help... most NPOs barely spend anything on IT. We are just starting out, so appreciate all direct contacts and pointers that folks can provide. We have a mobile app that is free to use and can help. We are approved by Apple already and in process with Google.

We only sign up Non Profits. We allow virtual activities/events or in-person (with masks/social distancing). We are pre-launch because it would be like launching Amazon with no products to offer.

I was not going to initially post here about this because its a Knicks forum after all, but I really appreciate any help that you can provide.
I appreciate any communication that can be sent to info@WeAreLifer.com

Go Knicks!

Sounds like a worthy enterprise... Susan.

Seriously, good luck with your venture. The only suggestions I have Cartman, is to find some non-profits, who might not be able to afford your services. Because like you, they're just starting out.

Offer your services in exchange for a testimonial, if they're satisfied. And be sure to be available 24/7 for any technical issues with the app.

I would also consider pledging part of what you net, towards local food banks, or a worthy cause of your choice. Lets non-profits know you're going to pay it forward. Best of luck.

Thanks for the suggestion. The service is free however. We don’t make anything unless the Non Profit makes something.
