Most Important Piece of Work

Organized Google Apps to Organize a Virtual OfficeProblem:We had more than 20 volunteers trying to coordinate programs and communicate with over 400 parents and teachers.

Things to Consider

❖ Volunteers want something quick and intuitive.❖ We have a huge range of computer knowledge.❖ We need to be able to pass information on year

to year.

We Need a System that is:

❖ Familiar ❖ Cloud Based❖ Easy to collect information❖ Easy to disperse information❖ Intuitive to organize

My Solution

Google for Nonprofits

How I Made This Happen

1. Set up Gmail for Organization

2. Applied for Google Apps for Nonprofits

3. Purchased a Domain

4. Set up individual email for each of the officers.

5. Created a form that was emailed out to all parents to collect information. (This information went directly into a spreadsheet.)

6. Organized information in spreadsheet created a contact for every parent.

7. Set up file and contact by committee/event.

8. Created a tutorial about how to find needed information.

9. Trained all leaders in how to access information and troubleshoot.

10.At the end of the year, all information will be put in a file and passed to the next set of officers.

Keys to Effectiveness

❖ Everyone is familiar with Google❖ Set up to intentionally gather and disperse

information. Before, we could gather it, but there was no good way to share and update.

❖ Training, training, training.
