Can technology “future-proof” your nonprofit?

This past week, Little Green Light’s CEO, co-founder, and lead engineer, Nick Bicknell, was interviewed on The Nonprofit Jenni Show where he spoke about how technology can play a role in helping to “future-proof” nonprofit organizations.

The Nonprofit Jenni Show, now in its 4th season, is a free podcast series whose aim is to discuss common challenges facing nonprofit organizations today. In each episode, podcast creator and nonprofit consultant Jenni Hargrove interviews professionals from nonprofit organizations, social enterprises, and government agencies who share their experiences related to a particular challenge. Little Green Light is proud to be a sponsor of the podcast series and of Jenni’s Nonprofit Roundtable Events held in Nashville, TN, and Atlanta, GA.

Season 4, Episode 2, titled Future Proof Your Nonprofit Technology, features two guests in addition to Nick: Blake Stockard from Kumwe Systems and Development Director Alicia Bell from Gracework Ministries. Each brings an interesting perspective to the conversation.  Blake shares his expertise on creating a collaborative systems approach for his nonprofit clients. Alicia shares the benefits she experienced in having an integrated systems approach at her nonprofit. And Nick discussed some ways to integrate your nonprofit’s existing systems with Little Green Light’s donor management/CRM system.
