Despite positive progress, inequality is still pervasive throughout our institutions and systems, and nonprofit technology is not exempt. And, as the NTEN Equity Guide for Nonprofit Technology highlights, “…technology does not and cannot succeed without an organizational culture that supports it”.

As the world becomes increasingly technologically advanced, it is not enough to have an up-to-date website and social media presence. According to a 2018 NTEN Study , 80 percent of nonprofits lack a policy to address cyberattacks. Outsourced IT specialists have their own equipment and software, saving your organization those expenses.
