3. INTRODUCTIONS
What is a Nonprofit Tech Club?
Nonprofit Tech Club provides free, friendly events for
nonprofit staffers to learn about technology. Meet up with
your peers to talk about tech and program management,
fundraising and development, marketing and
communications, leadership, and, of course, IT.
NTC New Orleans is 1 of 22 local Tech Club groups located
across the US and Canada.

groups. Join one of the 20 Nonprofit Tech Clubs—just like this one—across the US
and Canada.

issues in our sector. New community- contributed articles come out each week.
