Turns Out, World of Warcraft is Not a Good Place to Fundraise

The best part of the NTC? THE PEOPLE!

If you've ever been to a Nonprofit Technology Conference, you know there's something amazing about all the people you meet - the opinions, stories, and experiences they share. It's the diversity of our community that makes us strong.

That's why we work so hard every year to raise $10,000 to send staff from small nonprofits to the show. This year, as they have for the last few years, Convio is matching those funds dollar for dollar, so that we can send 50 folks who would not otherwise be able to attend.

And when you donate you'll get a vote - a vote on which pop song the NTEN staff will rewrite and perform at the NTC.

There are just about 2 weeks left in the campaign, and we clearly need your help. For the last few weeks, we've tried everything we can think of. I tried my hand at busking, we mined for bitcoin, we've raided our penguin's piggy banks â€“ all to no avail.

This week, Brendan learned that as good an idea as it may seem, you just can't raise money in World of Warcraft.
