CLOSING THE DIGITAL DIVIDE
NONPROFITS LACK RESOURCES
Only 1 in 4 nonprofits report having a defined strategy for achieving digital readiness, and only about half of those actually have the resources to implement their strategy. Restricted resources, competing priorities, and a lack of guidance mean that nonprofits only spend $1 on technology for every $3 that private companies do--yet we know that tech-savvy nonprofits are 4x more likely to achieve their missions.
TECH LEADERS ARE AN UNTAPPED SOLUTION
More than 400,000 tech professionals in the US have raised their hands on LinkedIn, saying they are interested in joining a nonprofit board. They are a part of a generation of tech workers who want to leverage their expertise and networks for good. But despite this interest, we're missing the connection: very few of them are actually doing it.
A CRITICAL MOMENT
With new technologies from AI to automation creating both risk and opportunity, nonprofit organizations are rethinking everything from fundraising to risk management to staffing to the needs of their community, while tech leaders are seeking increased community engagement. We need new voices at the board table to help nonprofits make strategic and pragmatic decisions--and then help resource and support that plan.
