Measured impact from pro bono volunteers
Our investment each year in subscriptions for nonprofits to use this online portal for skilled volunteers has a 4.65 ROI. That's more than four and a half times the amount we donate for access. Each nonprofit that has a subscription can utilize the Catchafire portal for a year, unlimited projects, trainings, calls as they want for all staff, board and volunteers they sign up.
How it works:
1 subscription for the year = $1200
The nonprofit sets up their profile and requests volunteer applications for projects like translation, fundraising, website design, etc.
Professionals offer their time at no cost for projects.
Nonprofits select the best volunteer for their needs.
Each project is pre-planned and managed on the portal.
When complete, the projects are evaluated and data is reported.
The average value of each project is $3650.
So far this year, each nonprofit using the tool has gained $10,500 in value.
