The number of vendors offering “soup to nuts” web-based solutions to handle
online donations and web content management is growing every day. However the
price of these solutions is often out of reach for many small and medium sized
nonprofits. This panel will introduce nonprofit decision makers and techies to a
range of affordable content mangement, donation processing, and donor
management solutions. Emily Thorson from EchoDitto will discuss EchoDitto’s
use of CivicSpace and the benefits of a CMS for base building. Sarah Bennett from
Database Designs will discuss affordable options for processing credit cards, and
Harold Jordan of the National Coalition for Education Activists will discuss his
experience at a number of nonprofits integrating several low cost tools.
