GroundWork group

"Our experience with GroundWork group has enabled our agency to align all of our computers with the same operating systems and programs, paving the path toward an internal network. The people we have worked with have been extremely supportive and tolerant of our lack of knowledge in this area. We appreciate their sensitivity to our need for affordable IT support and quick response in supplying this service. Through their leadership we have grown in both knowledge and capability."
-Roberta Bishop, Executive Director, South Side Learning & Development Center

"Technology allows us to provide programs and services in a more efficient and effective manner, but as nonprofit organizations, we often lack the expertise and necessary financial resources. GroundWork group has been a tremendous help in bridging the gap for our agency. They have been instrumental in helping the Center secure funding for the upgrade of our clinical software and through their IT Board Match program, we've just added an IT exec to our board. With GroundWork group's help, we've been able to focus more of our time and energy on our mission of helping people improve communication and vocational independence!"
-Dawn Gleason, President & CEO, Columbus Speech & Hearing Center

"Our partnership with GroundWork group for IT support has allowed us to restructure our staffing in this area and rely on trusted consultant services to support our technical structure. GroundWork group has secured affordable resources that we could not have found on our own."
-Barbara Poppe, Executive Director, Community Shelter Board

"GroundWork group has been an important program for our organization. It has given us great ideas about improving our internal IT systems, has provided relevant workshops with a wonderful list of free and reduced-price resources, and has been a constant reminder that it is critical to have up-to-date technology. Of course, being named a winner in two of the Innovations Contests was also great!"
-Laura Moskow Sigal, Executive Director, Mental Health Association of Franklin County

"GroundWork group has been instrumental in changing our view on IT. We are now looking at IT with a view to the future and implementing a long range IT plan that will take our organization to a new level of efficiency."
-Steve Votaw, CEO, Directions for Youth & Families

"We needed the help of a project manager to oversee a new and major IT project. Knowing we would need to conserve resources and be smart in selecting a partner, an ARC Industries board member recommended GroundWork group. They had the IT expertise we needed and understood firsthand the importance of technology in the operational and strategic planning of a not-for-profit business."
-John Mitchem, CEO, ARC Industries Inc.

"We first began working with GroundWork group more than 11 years ago to collect data on our donors. Thrilled with the team's help, we have since expanded our business with them to include website management and credit card services. As a result, we are seeing a great increase in the number of donations to the House via credit card and website traffic. We're so grateful for their help!"
-Ann Carmichael, Director, Unverferth House

"We began working with GroundWork group after receiving a Capacity Building Initiative Grant from The Columbus Foundation. New Directions Career Center needed an upgraded information management system and a more efficient way to inform constituents of upcoming events, fundraisers and programs. With GWg's complete IT solution, including an integrated blast email tool, we are now saving on postage and, most importantly, seeing improvements in our data collection and management, outcome reporting capability, and overall income."
-Linda Danter, Executive Director, New Directions Career Center

"GroundWork group has been critical to the success and growth of Prevent Blindness Ohio. In the 20+ years we have been using the GWg Information Management System, our budget, donor base and services have grown more than 700%, proving that GWg is an invaluable asset to our fundraising efforts. Their constituent management software allows us to improve donor response by targeting communications based on different criteria, such as mission interest, frequency of giving and gift size—something only an organization ten times our size could normally do."
-Sherry Williams, President & CEO, Prevent Blindness Ohio

"We've been working with GroundWork group for a number of years; they understand how APSI works and have always provided fast and consistently excellent service, including suggestions on how to improve our information management system. Thanks to GWg, our medical specialists now record case notes online so that all staff can view up-to-date medical details as soon as they are entered. This helps us better serve the individuals who need us most."
-Wanda Carroll, Program Coordinator, Advocacy and Protective Services, Inc. (APSI)

"To better serve our community, we needed the help of a dedicated IT partner who could oversee day-to-day operations of the Columbus Urban League. GroundWork group supplied us with a seamless infrastructure that included everything from our phones and computers to our security system. In addition, their tech solutions made it possible to open our fourth location and expand our presence."
-Eddie Harrell, Jr., President & CEO, Columbus Urban League

"Our team is grateful for GroundWork group's partnership. Our technology capabilities are key to our success in registering cyclists and volunteers and managing our event. The technical infrastructure provided by GroundWork group is critical to our operations and helps us reach our participation and fundraising goals."
-Tom Lennox, Executive Director, Pelotonia

"Thanks to GroundWork group, OSU Hillel is able to easily and efficiently track all of our donors, reporting those who attended student events to dollars contributed by Friends of OSU Hillel. GWg's database management system really works and what's more, they made it work for us—we have no complaints!"
-Susannah Sagan, Associate Director, OSU Hillel
