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.

He and I have had terrific idea swaps and brainstorms and I can only imagine the conversations he will spark in person at NTEN’s Nonprofit Technology Conference. He received a NTEN scholarship to cover his registration cost but that’s it—he still needs to get there. When is the NTEN Conference? So here I am.

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.

We’re one month out from NTEN’s annual Nonprofit Technology Conference (NTC) in Washington, DC. Last year was my inaugural year attending NTC, and within a few hours of landing in snowy Minneapolis, I was meeting hundreds of nptechies at the pre-conference party, #NTCBeer. Who wouldn’t want to be a part of that?

We were pleased to have such a dynamic and diverse group of folks participating this year, a growing number of which were joining us at the NTC for the first time. In addition, the Community shared many insightful comments to help both individual speakers and NTEN continue to improve the educational experience of the conference.

Since I started working on the NTC -- and its predecessor, the RoundUp -- almost a decade ago, my very favorite part has been the Day of Service. It's simple: We work with fabulous local hosts to recruit NTC-area orgs who need some help. If you're just about to register , include the Day of Service in your registration.

This year's NTC brought 1,430 nonprofit professionals to the OMNI Hotel in Atlanta GA. Unlike in past years, we had a large number of late registrants: 18% of attendees registered in the month prior to the conference. Together with our exhibitors, they committed $344,900.00 to the NTC, just under 50% of our total income.

I did this for my recent birthday campaign , using the Facebook Causes matching challenge that if our cause raised $5,200, I'd donate ten times my age or $520. My personal favorite is Erin Ennis who took a winter dip in Vermont's Lake Champlain as part of a personal challenge to raise money for Special Olympics Vermont.

NTEN used a hybrid crowdsourcing approach to solicit panel proposals for its NTC 2011, similar in design and approach to the method SXSW has used. Impact measures not only looking at the total amount raised, but also the adoption of new online social fundraising tools which was a key objective.
