statistics

April was NetSquared's first full month with only ONLINE events. Surprisingly the transition has been very smooth, with no drop-off in the number of attendees. A HUGE thanks to all the NetSquared organizers for their flexibility in the face of COVID-19.

Find your local NetSquared meetup and join us for a #NPtech conversation.

Here’s the NetSquared event statistics for December 2019. As always December is our quietest month because most groups take the month off while nonprofits prepare for the holiday and year-end fundraising push. ;-)

But the NetSquared organizers are coming in strong with their schedule of 2020 events —  search for your closest group.

December 2019

You can see NetSquared's #GivingTuesday bump!

During November 2019 our amazing NetSquared community leaders created:

• 86 events (⬆21%)
• 835 RSVPs
• 49 active groups

There was a big increase in the number of November events (compared to October) because the run-up to #GivingTuesday makes for an obvious "online fundraising best practices" meetup.

Or start your own NetSquared #Tech4Good meetup (it's super fun!) at http://page.techsoup.org/why-start-a-group.

I may have been on sabbatical for much of the planning cycle for the October events, but the local NetSquared leaders kept going strong!

• 71 events
• 906 RSVPs
• 43 groups were active

NetSquared's fiscal year begins July 1, so every summer I look back at the previous year of the community's activity to identify trends and lessons learned. This time I'll be looking at FY19, which covers July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019.

NetSquared is TechSoup’s global network of volunteer-led nonprofit technology meetups. We're the answer to the question “where can I get support to use technology effectively at my nonprofit?” Event attendees build their networks and learn practical digital skills to support their programs, marketing and fundraising.

You like numbers? Here’s NetSquared’s April stats.

The most important metric for me is the number of active groups, because it demonstrates that a city has a hub for nonprofit techies to come together and learn from each other. That it’s up 38% year-over-year makes me very pleased.
