Digital Transformation in the NGO Sector...

MISSION
About this episode

On this special episode of Mission Daily, Ian sits down with IT and Philanthropy professionals working to bridge the gap between Silicon Valley and the NGO world. This roundtable was made possible by NetHope, a consortium of nearly 60 leading global non-profits which empower organizations to change the world through the power of technology. NetHope’s members are responsible for delivering over 60% of all annual, international, and non-governmental aid. 

In an effort to bring NGOs up to speed with technology, NetHope created The Center for the Digital Non- Profit, which is focused on bringing digital transformation to the NGO sector. Today’s participants are all partners of this effort and committed to using tech to reach more people and have a bigger impact.
