In the nonprofit technology community, I’ve heard stories of cut backs on “nice to have&# items and expenses such as travel and training so that organizations can focus on their most critical goals first and cut back on what they deem not to be completely necessary. Airfare can be one of the pricier parts of getting to the NTC.

There are only 3 conferences I make a point of going to each year if I can: Convio Summit , Salesforce Dreamforce and NTEN NTC. Wouldn’t you know that this year, Convio Summit and Dreamforce were the same week? Not to say that the Convio conference isn’t excellent. This is no side project.

Every year, the NTEN community comes together to raise enough money to send staff from small nonprofits to the NTC. For the fourth year running, Convio will match your contribution, dollar-for-dollar up to $10,000 – but only until February 29th. The NTC is a huge part of that. We've raised nearly $5,000 so far.
