Technology support for firms dedicated to helping others

Today, there are over 1.5 million nonprofits in the U.S., serving tens of millions of Americans. More than 40 percent say they lack sufficient technology to do their jobs well. Often identified as one of the most critical needs for nonprofits, information technology (IT) can also be one of the most costly. NPower is a national nonprofit that works with corporate IT leaders to bring low-cost or free IT services to nonprofits, as well as technology training to young adults.

Sapient Global Markets is proud to support NPower, joining dozens of leading organizations in the financial and technology sectors to provide much-needed IT resources to nonprofits and underserved youths. Well into our second year supporting NPower, we have already donated branding guidance and services and continue to look for ways to leverage our technology expertise in support of organizations and young people striving to make a difference in their communities.

Through its IT Basic Managed Services, NPower provides critical and affordable IT services to nonprofits, allowing them to focus on supporting their local communities. NPower also runs three programs: The Community Corps, which connects corporate IT volunteers to nonprofits with IT needs through a skilled volunteer portal; IT Professional Services, which utilizes expertise provided by staff and partners to deliver a range of discounted services; and Technology Service Corps, which prepares young adults to become IT professionals. In addition, Sapient Global Markets is currently working with NPower to establish a Women’s Board that will be looking for new ways to engage women in its initiatives, including helping women leverage their potential through IT.

“Technology has the power to help improve the effectiveness and reach of any organization,” said Chip Register, Head of Sapient Global Markets and the executive sponsor spearheading our efforts with NPower. “We are honored to help nonprofits better serve their communities by providing a wide range of support, from strategic IT consulting to implementation, optimization and integration services."
