Find and Use the Right Software for Your NPO

The second Tuesday of each month, social changemakers and Web innovators get together to network, socialize and share ideas at Net Tuesday, an event produced by NetSquared, a project of TechSoup.

Next Tuesday, November 13, Allen Gunn of Aspiration and Social Source Commons will facilitate a FREE interactive session about finding, utilizing, and maintaining software for your nonprofit.

Come share your points of pain in finding and utilizing appropriate software for your organization, discuss software solutions, and join the Social Source Commons, a place to share lists of software tools that you already use, gain knowledge and support, and discover new tools.
