March 10th: OK, we've been talking a lot about the possibilities of technology for organizations, but there are a couple of really big issues we've not really dealt with (well, a lot of them, really, but let's focus on these two for the moment.) First, money. A lot of organizations just don't want to think about technology planning, and one of the barriers they throw up is "we don't have any money for this." As the expense identification process that's contained in the OneNorthwest model shows, the reality is that most organizations are already spending tons of money on this stuff, they're just not admitting it. Be that as it may, it's still a valid quesion: how do I afford or pay for this stuff? Below you'll find links to a wide array of resources for nonprofits, from discounted software to donated hardware and lots of stops in between. In addition, the Internet is in the process of radically changing the face of fundraising altogether, as more and more foundations get online, and more and more resources are made available on the web. Please review these funding links and options, and consider how they might be of use to your organization. Next, how do I pull together and articulate what it is I want to do? How do I actually turn my basic values and intents into some kind of workign plan? We're going in a couple of different directions this week (the joys of a lot to cover in a short time frame), but take a look at some of the tech plans below as starting points for developing a strategic plan and then: Please put together a Strategic Plan for an arts organization's technology -- looking at what the key goals would be for the organization, and what your strategies would be. These should obviously speak in some manner to the technology planning criteria you developed earlier, in terms of thinking about how best to achieve those criteria. Funding Links
