Win a FREE 5-Year MyFax Account! Take Our Post-Campaign Survey
We're at the tail end of our reduce paper campaign and we're almost there. If you took our Challenge to Reduce Paper Use in your office, please go ahead and complete our brief survey on the things you have done (or plan to do) to reduce your paper use to be entered to win the free 5-Year MyFax account. The survey should take only a few minutes to complete. One winner will be selected at random from those organizations that have successfully completed both surveys.
Even if you didn't accept our challenge, please take our survey. We need to learn more about what you need to know and how to most effectively share the information with nonprofits and other social benefit organizations.
In our pre-campaign survey, many of you indicated that greening your office is perceived to cost more and require technical expertise. We hope that through our articles and blog posts, you have learned that you can actually save money by taking a few easy steps. If you haven't, I encourage you to read on to see a few resources that might change your mind.
Two of our most popular posts were about print-management software and creating electronic collateral. If you haven't read them already, I also encourage you to check out our posts on duplexing, buying recycled paper, and convincing others to change. These posts suggest ways to actually lower your costs by choosing greener methods and products. If you've not got the time to read them now, bookmark them so you can refer to them later when you have time to prioritize paper reduction in your office.
Thank you to all of those who participated in our Reduce Paper Use Challenge. Thousands of you read our articles and blog posts. Many of you attended our online event or webinar, contributed tips, and shared your ideas with others in our forums. We hope that you have learned something about how to reduce your paper use and save money.
While the month-long Reduce Paper Use Challenge has officially concluded, our page will remain here as an archive and may grow as we get more info. We will be publishing the results of our two surveys here and we also plan to compile the most useful content into a downloadable PDF so that you can reference it at your convenience and share it with others. So make sure to check back here throughout December.
Stay tuned to TechSoup's GreenTech Initiative for more useful tips on greening your nonprofit and for the next campaign tackling another hot environmental technology issue in April. Contact us at YourTips AT techsoup.org or on our forums.:
