“Non-profits are really reluctant to attempt any

brave, daring, giant scale new fundraising

endeavours for fear that if the thing fails their

reputation will be dragged through the mud.

You and I know that when you prevent failure

you kill innovation, if you kill innovation and

fundraising you can’t raise more revenue, and

if you can’t raise more revenue you can’t grow

and if you can’t grow you can’t possibly solve

large social problems.” Dan Pallotta

Mobile Apps: Unlocking the

Potential of Volunteer Centres

Goal

Provide all members of the OVCN with access to

iNotForProfit’s proven mobile technology

To enable each OVCN member to increase their impact

and build capacity using this mobile technology

To increase youth engagement through this mobile

technology

To make this mobile technology accessible to ALL

Volunteer Centres, regardless of their financial capability

Approach

The OVCN has negotiated a social entrepreneurial

partnership model to allow all member Volunteer

Centre’s access at a deep discount

The OVCN will ‘subsidize’ the cost of each mobile app,

based on the financial means of the member Volunteer

Centre (small, medium, large)

iNotForProfit will donate this subsidy, as an in-kind

donation, to the OVCN

OVCN members will be able to have their own mobile app at a deep discount.

There will not be any adverse financial impact to the OVCN.

#OVCNaction
