. The Nonprofit Technology Conference (NTC) is to nonprofit techies what SXSW is to social media professionals. I've been going before the NTC was the NTC. Last year, my friend, Eddie Harran, successfully launched a campaign to get to the NTC from Australia. I've been going before the NTC was the NTC.

I've been a proud member of the Nonprofit Technology community since, yikes, 1993 and a part of NTEN/NTC community since the early days. If you are involved with the nonprofit technology field, then you probably already know about the NTC the most attend event for nonprofit techies. Well, that alone was enough for me.

Despite the tough economic times, it seems the community is really excited about the 2009 NTC. So, inspired by a little tweet from Beth Kanter , we're excited to announce a special fundraising drive to bring more folks to the NTC: we're going to raise $10,000 for an NTC Scholarship fund by February 28.

Volunteer at the NTC The NTC Scholarship campaign is one of our favorite times of year. We love the Scholarship program so much, we’ve done borderline humiliating things ( time and time again ) in the name of making the NTC feasible for a wider range of attendees. This year is no different.

Instead of running throughout the entire conference – and competing with everything else on the agenda – the Science Fair takes place only on the first day of the NTC; it's the sole focus of the conference at that time.

As Jordan Viator explains on the Connection Café blog: It’s no surprise that every other blog post you read these days talks about how to raise money, stretch funds and build supporters in the current economic climate. Give to the Scholarship Fund. Airfare can be one of the pricier parts of getting to the NTC.

I look forward to the NTEN NTC (Nonprofit Technology Network's conference) every year. This is actually my first time officially speaking at NTC. Numbers-wise, the NTC is no Dreamforce. A significant number of the NTC sessions are focused on strategy and constituent-facing technology applications.

Thanks to Convio and NTEN, the scholarship fund has generously covered the fees for 57 delegates to attend. Thus, I was left with two options: one, to let the award go; or two, put my creative brain to use and launch a campaign to raise the funds. Unfortunately, the scholarship did not include any air miles.
