Rather than list off the top things you can do to raise money and spread your money right now, we decided to instead put our money where our mouth is - quite literally - and make a concerted effort to help the entire nptech community by raising money online for scholarships to none other than the 2009 NTC Conference in San Francisco.

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.

We're going to raise another $10,000 (matched dollar for dollar by Convio) for the NTC scholarship campaign this year -- and send another 57 people down to Hot-lanta.
