Community Impact Projects: Apparo facilitates Community Impact Projects (skilled-volunteers engagements) to provide technology solutions that enable area nonprofits to operate more efficiently, generate more revenue, reduce operating risk and/or reach more constituents. We operate as the communitys nonprofit Chief Information Officer (CIO), identifying nonprofit technology and business process needs and resourcing IT skilled-volunteers and financial resources to create the needed solutions. Apparo staff scopes and facilitates nonprofit/corporate partner consulting projects that are 2-6 months long. Apparo ensures that the nonprofit solution implemented is sustainable, achieving 96% sustainability of the solutions once the volunteer teams complete their engagement. Apparo facilitates the provision of the IT solutions to the nonprofit community which generates a cost benefit ratio anywhere between 300% and 1000%.
Tech Therapy (Technical Advice, Guidance, Resources): Nonprofits want and need technology resources and stronger business processes, but do not have the skills, budget or resources to do so alone. Apparos team provides technical advice & guidance, resources, and education at no to very low cost to morethan 600 greater Charlotte area nonprofits. Our team of nonprofit & technology experts meet with area nonprofits to discuss their technology and business process needs at no cost to the nonprofit. We move nonprofits forward through technology advice, counsel and solutions that amplify their ability to deliver their missions.
Education programs:Apparo has many programs created around educating and providing knowledge in technology to the nonprofit community. IT Coaching is a skilled-volunteer coaching program that offers one-on-one as well as small group training to nonprofits for Microsoft Office suite products via 1 hour personalized sessions. Other education programs include training groups, collaboration groups, and quarterly forums. These educational offerings improve nonprofit operating efficiencies and risk management, while engaging skilled volunteers in a way that lifts their work morale while expanding their higher level skills like out-of-the-box-thinking, collaboration and initiative.
