Technology is a powerful tool. Technology can transform nonprofits, helping them to work smarter and achieve more. However, for many nonprofit professionals, technology is a source of confusion and frustration. As part of their commitment to giving back to our communities, Technology for Social Good is a firmwide program focused on harnessing the technology strength and skill of their employees to develop solutions that benefit the social sector. Technology for Social Good supports local nonprofits and socially responsible businesses through various initiatives. We have several programs which help connect the needs of the social sector to their staff of skilled technology volunteers. The in-kind technology assistance provided by their teams affords organizations the opportunity to reallocate funds to other efforts that support their missions. Since 2010, over 100.000 staff hours have been volunteered—having collaborated with over 1.500 organizations.
