Adopting a company intranet can be a large undertaking for a non-profit, both from a resource perspective and a monetary perspective. With both budgets and resource tight and spending tracked closely, finding an intranet that fits within with these constraints can be challenging to say the least.
Last week, the San Diego Humane Society & SPCA, a stellar non-profit Intranet Connections client, was featured on a live non-profits webcast hosted by the Intranet Benchmarking Forum to discuss these exact challenges and constraints non-profits face when selecting and implementing a company intranet. Not only did the San Diego Humane Society & SPCA share an intranet implement that inspired, their Intranet Manager, Elkie Wills, spoke to directly to the importance of an intranet for non-profits.

Elkie Wills, Intranet Manager, San Diego Humane Society & SPCA : It?s true, like most non-profits our budget for software is very limited, but we saw deploying an intranet as a critical collaboration and communication tools for our staff.
