NPower's mission is to help other nonprofits use technology to better serve their communities. From building databases and websites to teaching classes like Word, PhotoShop, and Computer Networking Basics, we're all about putting technology know-how into the hands of nonprofits.

Description:
We were created to help Puget Sound nonprofits use technology to meet the forces of change that are transforming the nonprofit sector. These powerful forces include increasing demands for accountability, the incursion of for-profit companies into traditionally nonprofit services, and a growing insistence by funders that nonprofits collaborate, consolidate their back offices, or even merge. With the right support, nonprofits can meet these demands head-on. We help other nonprofits through low-cost to no-cost services such as consulting, tech training, volunteer tech matching (for member organizations), and community events which are held throughout the greater Puget Sound.

History:
Since opening our doors in Spring 1999, we have spent a lot of time with local nonprofits. So far we have provided over 22,000 hours of consulting, over 35,000 hours of training, and turned over 1,000 ideas into reality by matching tech-savvy volunteers with tech-hungry nonprofits.
