If you work for a small nonprofit, chances are you are looking for as many free or inexpensive tech resources as possible. If you represent a large organization, you’re probably still looking for budget-friendly ways to enhance productivity and communications. And if you’re job-hunting, learning new tech tools is a great way to beef up your resume. We recently updated our Nonprofit Technology resources page – which compiles free or low-cost tools on

• Videoconferencing Communication
• Cloud-Based Back-Up Systems and Storage Systems
• Document and Information Sharing
• Business Enhancing Software Programs
• Website Content Management
• Graphic Design Tools
• Social Media Tools
• Photo Editing Tools
• Video Editing Tools
• Web and E-mail Content Tools
• Productivity and Creativity Tools

One of our favorite tools is Canva, which we covered in a previous Tech Tips blog post, and which we use to produce all of our blog images and social media graphics (for free!). We’re also excited to start using Piktochart – an infographic design tool, and Moovly – a way to create animated videos, in our future communications.
