This IT resource was developed by CompuMentor's Healthy & Secure Computing campaign and was created in the aftermath of the Hurricane Katrina tragedy. It provides advice on getting technology systems working again in small- and medium-sized nonprofits where business continuity plans were not sufficient or did not exist.
CompuMentor is a US-based nonprofit dedicated to providing technology support to nonprofit organizations. Here is a list of CompuMentor programs that are providing technology resources to nonprofits recovering from disasters:
- TechSoup.org, an online portal for nonprofit technology articles, information and advice. (www.TechSoup.org)
- TechSoup Stock, a product philanthropy program providing donated and discounted software and hardware for nonprofits and public libraries in the USA and Canada. (www.TechSoup.org/Stock)
- Health and Secure Computing campaign, an initiative to enable nonprofits to set up and manage a strong, stable, basic technology infrastructure. (www.CompuMentor.org/HSC)
Our technology-related resources for nonprofits and public libraries affected by Hurricane Katrina can be accessed at: http:/www.TechSoup.org/Katrina
In the coming weeks, we will produce an updated version of this manual which will be available online at http:/www.TechSoup.org/Katrina
